I created this cooling necklace for my wife when we lived with serious heat in India. She struggled with the country’s unbearable heat, and I wanted to help her find relief.
One day in Mumbai, I took a cooling technology I had previously created and adapted it into a wearable necklace. That idea became Nano Ice. From there, the focus was on shaping it into something beautifully designed and comfortable enough to wear every day.
At Nano Ice, our goal is to help you beat the heat in style and support those who truly struggle with heat-related issues.
Today, our necklaces are handcrafted outside of Boston, and we’re proud to be improving the livelihoods of people in our community and people who suffer from heat.

What's Unique About Our Necklace?
Let’s talk about what’s behind this innovation. The technology inside the cooling spheres is based on a water-based phase-change material that freezes water in a more efficient manner. The liquid frozen inside the spheres of the Nano-Ice Cooling Necklace is the cutting edge development of the energy storage industry that Sam helped develop in India. The way we get the cooling effect to last longer is based on what happens during the freezing process; The Nano-Ice crystals interlock with each other more efficiently than standard frozen water, which means a longer cooling experience for you the customers (see graphic below).
The Nano-Ice Cooling Necklace stays cold for up to 2 hours, but even after the ice crystals melt, you feel the cooling effect because the neck is responsible for regulating body temperature and is the ideal spot to cool down and gain optimal comfort. The frozen spheres are cooling the pulse points on your neck and is cooling blood going to your brain, so that effects is long-lasting after the ice melts.
The design is especially convenient for people on the move or looking to put a stylish edge on their cooling experience. It's as simple as taking your Nano-Ice Cooling Necklace out of your freezer and wearing it around your neck for instant relief. When traveling you can use an insulated lunch bag with a Freezer pack to ensure the necklace is cold. Stains from wetting a scarf with nasty chemicals inside are a thing of the past.
