No beach day, picnic or music festival is complete without a nice portable cooler packed with chilly drinks and snacks. The only problem is, regular Styrofoam coolers are really bad for the environment. Sure, they’re super-lightweight and cheap but they’re also slow to degrade and are known to leach toxic chemicals into the environment.
Enter Coleman GeoFreeze Cooler, a truly eco-friendly cardboard cooler that’s 100% curbside recyclable.
Coleman GeoFreeze Cooler Features
- Made with 100% curbside recyclable materials
- Holds up to 16 cans with one 10lb ice bag
- FrostShield lining keeps drinks cold and prevents leaks
- Can be reused up to 5 times after drying out
- Sturdy carry handles for easy hauling
Heading To Greener Pastures
You may be wondering: how can something made out of cardboard keep drinks cold for hours and be reusable? According to Coleman, it’s all thanks to their FrostShield lining (well that, and the ice bag, duh). This cooler lining helps maximize the iciness of your drinks for up to a whopping 18 hours. Yep, you read that right! The lining makes the cooler leak-proof and the ice bag frosty, helping your drinks and snacks remain ice cold for the entire day – and then some. Perfect for spontaneous picnics and beach days!
But the real game-changer here is that the Coleman’s GeoFreeze Cooler is one hundred percent curbside recyclable. Made of cardboard and other recyclable materials, this portable cooler is incredibly easy to recycle – once you’re done using it, you can simply set it out to be hauled away with your usual recycling. Another plus is that the cooler can be used up to five times after drying out, so it’s not only great for the environment but for your wallet too.
And if you’re thinking ‘this cardboard cooler is definitely going to get messy’, think again. The GeoFreeze Recyclable Cooler’s lining helps keep everything right where it should be, inside the box, meaning you can leave it on your picnic blanket or festival home base worry-free. We’re fans of the storage space as well. Capable of holding up to 16 cans with one 10lb bag of ice, this cooler will keep you and your friends and family well-hydrated throughout the day.
