Surmol Stainless Steel Ice Packs for Lunch Boxes, 2-Pack Slim No-Water Gel Plates — Reusable, Leak-Resistant (6.7 x 4.5 in)

Surmol 2PCS Stainless Steel Ice Packs are reusable, no-water, food-grade cooling plates designed to keep lunch boxes, coolers, and drink containers cold for hours.

These slim, durable ice packs combine a 304 food-grade stainless steel shell with a fast-freezing gel core to deliver extended cooling without the mess of melting ice. Each plate measures 6.7 x 4.5 x 0.4 inches and is ready straight from the freezer. Because they use a concentrated coolant instead of plain water, they freeze quicker, stay colder longer, and resist punctures and leaks common with soft plastic packs.

How long will a Surmol stainless steel ice pack keep food and drinks cool?

Cooling performance depends on freezer temperature, container insulation, and what you pack, but the Surmol plates are engineered to maintain lower temperatures significantly longer than single-use ice. Typical use in an insulated lunch box yields cold retention through a standard work or school day—often eight hours or more under normal conditions.

• Filled with concentrated gel that freezes faster and stays colder than water.
• Rigid stainless steel shell reduces heat transfer and physical wear.
• Best results when paired with an insulated bag or cooler and pre-chilled food.

Are these safe for food and easy to clean?

Yes — Surmol ice packs use 304 food-grade stainless steel for the outer shell, which resists rust and corrosion while providing a smooth, non-porous surface that rinses clean. The seal is engineered to prevent leaks, making them suitable to place directly next to lunch items or breast milk bags when extra cold protection is needed.

• 304 food-grade stainless steel exterior is hygienic and durable.
• Polished surface wipes clean; rinse and dry before returning to freezer.
• Leak-resistant seal prevents gel escape and food contamination.

How do I use and store the Surmol ice packs for best results?

Place the plates flat in your freezer for at least six hours before use. For daily lunches, keep one or two packs frozen and slide them into your lunch box alongside sealed containers. After use, wash briefly, dry, and store flat in the freezer so they’re ready for the next outing.

• Freeze flat for a minimum of 6 hours for full chill potential.
• Use in pairs around food for even cooling; keep in insulated carriers.
• Rinse with mild soap, dry fully, then refreeze for reuse.

Can Surmol stainless steel ice packs be used for more than food cooling?

Yes, their rigid, cold-holding design makes them useful for short-term cold compression or emergency chill on the go. The solid exterior allows targeted application without soggy fabric or drips. Avoid prolonged direct skin contact; wrap in cloth for comfort when applying to the body.

• Handy for coolers, picnic baskets, and lunch boxes on trips.
• Can be used as a wrapped cold compress for minor swelling or discomfort.
• Durable build withstands tossing and typical outdoor use.

Who is this for: Surmol stainless steel ice packs are ideal for commuters, students, outdoor enthusiasts, and parents who want a reusable, durable cooling solution that’s cleaner than gel pouches or melting ice. They suit anyone who packs lunches, transports temperature-sensitive items, or needs a reliable, compact cold source for day trips, camping, or office meals.
