Keep Insulin Cool and Safe: What is the Glucology Insulin Cooling Pouch?

by IBD Medical on May 14, 2025

This pouch may look simple, but it's powered by a clever evaporative cooling system that helps people managing diabetes travel with greater confidence and peace of mind.

What Is It?

The Glucology Cooling Pouch is a reusable, battery-free, and ice-free solution that protects your insulin from heat. Whether commuting, enjoying the outdoors, or heading overseas, this pouch helps maintain the right temperature, even in warmer climates.

  • Temperature Control: It keeps in-use insulin at a safe temperature between 18 °c and 26°C for up to 45 hours per activation.
  • Warranty: This product includes a 12-month warranty. If you’re unsatisfied with the quality or performance, we'll make it right.

  • Even Distribution: Ensure the crystals are spread evenly throughout the pouch while soaking.
  • Drain and Dry: Drain the pouch on a flat surface for about 5 minutes. Gently pat dry with a towel or tissues.
  • Insert Your Medication: Once the pouch is mostly dry, insert your insulin pens or cartridges into the cooling pouch.
  • Reactivation: For best results, re-soak every 36–45 hours, or when the gel reverts to its crystal form.
  • Storage: Store the pouch in a dry place when not in use.
