Medical personnel must work in protective clothing during the corona crisis to protect themselves and others due to the high infectivity of the virus. The protective suits are tightly sealed, making them very hot to wear. This can become very uncomfortable for both doctors and nurses, work must also be interrupted more frequently to prevent overheating. In addition, the heat also impacts physical and mental performance.
A cooling solution geared towards medical workers:
The Active Cooling Vest provides cooling for medical workers, reducing the need to interrupt their work, as well as keeping them more alert, focused and calm.
Teijin's comfortable lightweight vest provides active cooling with an innovative textile concept that uses sweat more effectively as a cooling agent.
Compared to heavier cooling vests (based on ice, water or phase change material), a lightweight cooling vest maintains freedom of movement during physical activities, which is essential for ambulance crews, doctors and nurses, for example. Because the Active Cooling Vest is battery operated, it is capable of providing cooling for up to approximately six hours. Therefore, it is not necessary to interrupt any work activity to make any adjustments, making it possible to continue working without any issues as the Active Cooling Vest will continue to constantly cool.
Our integrated rechargeable battery-powered fans channel air through a specially designed fabric to carry away sweat in a way that increases the cooling effect of the body. It's a plug-and-play system that cools where and when cooling is needed, while also keeping your work clothes sweat-free. Teijin's Active Cooling Vest is available in 4 different sizes (S, M, L, XL)* , so there is always an optimal fit to achieve optimal performance.
