A reusable, non-electric heat pack that generates regulated heat when a metal activator disk is clicked, provides multiple hours of warmth per activation and can be reset by boiling for reuse.

Portable infant warming blanket (portable incubator system)

A medical-grade, portable blanket system designed to thermoregulate premature and at-risk infants using integrated pockets for phase-change heat packs; intended for use as an alternative or supplement to traditional incubators during transport and in resource-limited settings.

Non-electric patient transport shield (gurney patient shield)

A patient shield designed for gurney transport to reduce exposure during prehospital and intrahospital transfer; designed with universal-fit gurney clamps and developed with emergency medicine practitioners.

Consumer and outdoor cushions integrated with reusable heat packs

Stadium and outdoor seat cushions heated by the same non-electric reusable phase-change heat pack technology, designed for multi-hour warmth and repeated reuse.
