Portable Cold Water Plunge Tub

The Cold Water Plunge Tub is a portable ice bath tub designed for cold water immersion and sports recovery, specifically for fitness training, sports rehabilitation, and home therapy. Made from an environmentally friendly composite of PVC, nylon fabric, and pearl cotton, it features a sturdy outer wall and an insulated inner layer, maintaining a stable temperature for extended periods in cold water environments. It not only sets up quickly and drains easily, but also folds up for convenient carrying and storage after use.

Cold Water Plunge Tub Attributes:

Cold Water Plunge Tub Features:

1. Three-Layer High-Density Structure: The tank body consists of a 0.3 mm environmentally friendly PVC outer layer, a 2 mm pearl cotton middle layer, and a 0.35 mm nylon inner lining, forming a three-layer composite structure. The measured tensile strength reaches 14 MPa, with overall tensile performance improved by 65% compared to a single-layer PVC.

2. Excellent Cold Retention Performance: The thermal conductivity of the pearl cotton insulation layer is only 0.033 W/m·K, resulting in slow temperature changes within the tank. At a room temperature of 25℃, it takes 95 minutes for ice water from 8℃ to 12℃, a 52% delay compared to ordinary air-filled tanks. This structure reduces ice consumption by approximately 40%, maintains a stable water temperature over a long period, and saves cooling energy.

3. High Load-Bearing Stability: Utilizing a five-pillar PVC support design, each pillar can bear a weight of 80 kg, giving the overall tank a compressive strength exceeding 450 kg. The bottom anti-slip layer is 0.45 mm thick, increasing the coefficient of friction to 0.68, ensuring it doesn't slip easily when placed on tile, wood flooring, or plastic mats, enhancing safety.

4. Rapid Drainage and Maintenance: Equipped with a 20 mm diameter bottom drain valve, it drains up to 32 liters per minute. The valve is made of cold-resistant ABS material, which will not crack at temperatures as low as -15°C. The residual drainage rate is less than 2.5%, ensuring thorough emptying and preventing wastewater accumulation.

5. Safe and Comfortable Design: The top edge features a 3 cm thick inflatable ring design, forming a cushioning support to prevent users from bumping into it when entering or exiting. The inner wall has a skin-friendly frosted coating, increasing the coefficient of friction by 20%, preventing slippage during bathing. All materials have passed EN71 and REACH safety tests, ensuring no odor and no harmful substances.

Cold Water Plunge Tub Application:

1. Sports Recovery: Widely used in gyms, sports clubs, and professional training centers for post-workout cold water immersion recovery. Experiments have shown that 15 minutes of 10°C cold water immersion can reduce muscle lactic acid levels by 22% and shorten recovery time by 30%. The tub's insulation structure maintains low-temperature stability, avoiding frequent ice changes and helping athletes quickly recover muscle condition, improving training frequency and efficiency.

2. Home Rehabilitation: Suitable for daily home rehabilitation, physiotherapy, and relaxation. The 85×75 cm tub size can accommodate full-body or half-body immersion for adults. Cold water can soothe muscle tension and improve sleep; warm water can promote blood circulation and relieve fatigue.

3. Medical and Physiotherapy Centers: Widely used in rehabilitation medicine, physical therapy, and massage therapy settings. The tub can control a constant temperature range for cold compress therapy or alternating hydrotherapy, helping to reduce joint inflammation and soft tissue injuries. After 20 simulated clinical use tests, patients reported pain reduction rates as high as 85% and significant muscle tension relief, making it suitable for professional rehabilitation training programs.

4. Outdoor and Event Use: Suitable for outdoor sports events, camping, wilderness training, and marathon finish line recovery areas. The tank is lightweight and portable, folding to approximately 35 cm in diameter, and can be placed in a vehicle trunk. Inflation and water filling take approximately 10 minutes.
