Anyone thinking of getting a frio pouch I would highly recommend, charged it up before setting off to north Wales on holiday(camping) 10 days ago still cool and doing its job not had to recharge at all. Top product.

It is a great product, must have had mine 5 years or more now, a few weeks I had to stitch the end of the pouch as the gel was leaking out, expensive to buy but worth every penny!

Hi, just wondering, where I would be able to purchase a Frio pouch?

Type Frio into Google search and it will take you to their website.
 
I got one a month or so ago and find it brilliant to keep my insulin together and at the right temp.
Just make sure you don't put it in a waterproof container though! On a warm day on a car journey I put it into a small, waterproof, bag I was carrying and an hour later it was getting hot! It needs to breath for the evaporation process to work at keeping the insulin cool. :wink:
 
These are fab, I have 2 and have had them for yrs, always come in handy for all inclusive holidays abroad as you dnt get a fridge.
Wouldn't be without mine now, great investment Xx

Hi All .

One for the ladies here :)
They're great to store your lipsticks/colour stick pens in too !

I keep my insulin/victoza pens in these plus my eyedrops plus yep
my lipstick/colour sticks too . :P
[great when the weather is very warm/hot]
As the recent heatwave here in the UK was melting/heating up everything .

Had them 4 years now - no leaks or problems .

Also these frio wallets can be bought VAT free as a diabetic too .
I have red/black large pouch ones both were bought VAT free .

Hope this can help .

Anna .
