It's Just A Bag, Until You Put Your Medication Inside


(MENAFN- Market Press Release) April 16, 2024 3:14 am - The iCool MediCube ULTRA keeps your medication between 2 and 8C for 36 hours.

Introducing the iCool MediCube ULTRA...

My children call me the Ice Queen. I am obsessed with cold, with keeping things cool. I founded MedActiv in 2008 to research and develop solutions for the transport of fragile medications so that people suffering from chronic diseases such as diabetes, arthritis or multiple sclerosis could travel with their medication. There are millions of people worldwide who are prisoners of their medication. MedActiv has become their partner with solutions that help them to travel with their medication at exactly the right temperature.

The iCool range – A new freedom for patients traveling with fragile medication

The iCool range is a set of elegantly designed bags that keep medication between 2 and 8°C over a period ranging from 12 to 42 hours. The main challenge is to find the balance between the size of the cavity, the weight of the cooling bag, and the time that it will keep cold between 2 and 8°C.

MedActiv has just released the iCool MediCube ULTRA, which is a breakthrough in technology, keeping fragile medication between 2 and 8°C for over 42 hours. The iCool MediCube ULTRA allows users to cross the world, knowing that their medication is kept at exactly the right temperature.

Designing the iCool MediCube ULTRA was a personal challenge for Dr Olaf and Uwe Diegel, the two brothers behind the MedActiv Company. So they worked together with a team of medical engineers and one of the world's largest chemical companies to develop a new superabsorbent polymer that stays frozen for longer than regular gel packs.“With the MedActiv new formulation gel, we have managed to create a“phase change” material, which means that when it is frozen at a temperature of -18°C, it will change phase after about 7 hours of freezing to attain a new level of solidification and will then stay frozen much longer. This has opened new doors for us in terms of keeping our medication cool” explains Dr Olaf Diegel.

The iCool MediCube ULTRA was really designed for the traveler who needs to transport large amounts of fragile medication across the world. The iCool MediCube ULTRA has a useable cavity of 3822 cm3 (14 x 21 x 13 cm), allowing patients to transport as much medication as they want at a safe temperature for 42 hours.

About MedActiv:

MedActiv is a global leader in the development of transport and storage solutions for sensitive medication. MedActiv products are designed to give users the freedom to travel knowing that their medication is kept at exactly the right temperature. As the chosen partner of major pharmaceutical companies worldwide, MedActiv is constantly pushing back the boundaries of this industry.

For Uwe DIEGEL, creator of MedActiv, the company represents a personal investment. "In 2003, my brother almost died following an incident where his medication was accidentally frozen in a hotel. So I started this company because of reasons that are more of a personal nature than just business. MedActiv is for me the ultimate expression of innovation at the service of healthcare. If the MedActiv products are so popular, it is because they are designed by patients for patients and because we speak directly with users of the medications to really understand their needs. "
