The Chill-Its 6705 Cooling Headband features polymer crystal cooling technology for relief in extreme heat. Lightweight and low-profile, it is perfect for wear around the neck or under hard hats. A hook and loop closure in the back makes for an adjustable, snug fit on a variety of head sizes. Heat-related illness continuously ranks among the top causes of worksite accidents and fatalities. Evaporative cooling technologies such as polymer crystals are a simple, effective and comfortable solution for heat stress prevention. Similar to how sweat cools the body, evaporative technologies use an external water source to draw heat away—helping to regulate body temperature while providing cool relief. When activated, this cooling head band is comfortable and refreshing for even the hottest days of the year. HOW TO ACTIVATE Soak in water for 2-5 minutes to activate. The embedded polymer crystals will retain water for up to four hours of cooling relief. Be careful not to over activate as that may cause the bandana to“plump up” to a size where it is no longer able to be comfortably worn. Hand wash as needed and hang to dry. Ideal for construction, landscaping, roofing or anyone working in the heat. It also makes a great headband for running, hiking and other recreational activities.
