How do I maximize the effect of the refrigerant pads?
Please see our instructions page for details.

How many cells (squares) do I use?
Many factors apply such as the type of outer packaging used etc. But as an example, a salmon producer, air freighting 38 lbs of fresh salmon uses 4 pads each with 16 cells.
You may check our instructions page for details on how to optimize the length of cooling times.

Can Sorba-Freeze sheets and blocks be used more than once?
If the product is totally sealed then it may be safe for Sorba-Freezeto be re-used.
This is a choice that you as the customer must make based on your safety checks. Once the pads come directly in contact with the product and absorb any fluid or solid waste they run the risk of developing bacteria after the first usage. In this case the pads should not be used more than once.
