Meet Mike

When Kate moved on to graduate school, she left some big shoes to fill in our office...

Fortunately, we have Mike.



Mike Mockbee is our new website administrator and customer service specialist, but he's not new to Polar. He joined our team in 2006 and has been an essential employee for the past seven years.

Polar Holiday Party, 2006

Mike has previously worked in our factory, where he specializes in the manufacturing of our Kool Max® cooling packs and Soft Ice® cold/hot therapy packs.

Manufacturing our Soft Ice® packs

He is also one of the designers of our custom Soft Ice® Private Label Therapy Packs.  

Soft Ice® Private Label Therapy Packs

With his manufacturing experience, it's safe to say that Mike knows our products better than just about anyone, which is why we're fortunate to have him on the phone to assist you with your order or to answer any questions you have about our products. 

Mike is currently studying Management Information Systems at the University of Akron. He's also incredibly helpful with our computers and website!

Do you have any suggestions for our website?
Send them to mike@polarproducts.com.


Mike, thanks for all you do for Polar! 


By the way... did you know Sunday was Grandparents' Day? 
Happy first Grandparents' Day, Bill and Rose!

SO HAPPY in 118 Degrees

Yes, that temperature is 118 degrees inside the mail truck! 

"Heat stroke is a real threat here in Louisiana...  
That makes my Polar seat cushion literally a life saver!

"Mail delivery trucks do not have air conditioning, and all the other carriers are asking where to get one! 





"The great folks at Polar Products have transformed a hot and dangerous job into one that can be done in relative comfort!  This product has changed the quality of my life!

Thanks Polar Products!"

Back to School with Polar Products

Pencils?  

Notebooks? ✔ 

Cooling vest?! 

Are you ready for the school year? From kindergarten to college, here are our back to school Polar essentials: 

1. Don't let the late summer heat slow down your child on the playground! Send your child back to school with peace of mind with our effective and lightweight Cool Kids™ Cooling Kit


Cool Kids™ Cooling Kit

Our happy customer Jen says: 
"Just bought a mini-fridge for my daughter's class so she can keep her [cooling vest] cool at school. She loves it."

(Great idea, Jen!)


2. Is it back to the field or track for your young athlete? Pre-cooling, post-cooling, and cooling during exercise may help decrease the heating effects of activity. (Don't forget to stay hydrated and know the signs of heat related illnesses too.) Our CoolFit® Kit includes our best lightweight accessories for keeping cool before, during and after practice. 


CoolFit® Kit 
Includes neck, wrist and ankle wraps and a cooling Secrets torso wrap
with an extra set of Kool Max® packs for each product. 

3. Don't forget the school mascots... we know it gets hot in those costumes! Our Kool Max® Torso Vest is a favorite for mascots nationwide. 

Kool Max® Torso Vest

"The Kool Max cooling vest is very useful in my job. As mascot for the Akron Aeros it is very difficult, on those hot summer days, to remain cool. With the vest I can reduce the heat by 15 degrees inside my costume; and as little a difference you may think this is, it actually feels like a major one to me." Megan, Akron Aeros in OH

4. One more recommendation for your back to school list: Soft Ice® Compression Wraps and hot/cold packs! The packs stay soft and flexible when frozen and are great to have on hand for sports-related injuries. Reduce swelling and ease the pain with drug-free cold therapy. 

Soft Ice® Sports Therapy Field Kit

Always keep a Soft Ice® Pack on hand in the freezer...  
You never know when you may need to ice down an injury!

"This Soft Ice® Sports Therapy Compression Wrap works great! Our high school team loves it. " - Kirby in Ravenna, Ohio

5. Take your frozen cooling or cold therapy packs to school or practice in our soft-sided Polar Cooler!

HAVE A GREAT SCHOOL YEAR!
 
PS: We wish several members of our Polar family the best as they back to school this semester... 

Kate with Benjamin on her last day at Polar

... and say farewell to our intern, Kate. "Intern" doesn't begin to describe Kate's contributions during her 15 months at Polar. She was our Customer Service representative extraordinaire, dedicated office administrative assistant, the PolarPup mastermind, an enthusiastic gardener, fearless product tester, our distinguished proofreader, spelling whiz, "Twitterer" and more... 

Kate, we miss you already! Best of luck as you begin graduate school in the big city!
