Heat Countermeasures Using TEKION* Thermal Storage Material
*TEKION means “ideal temperature” in Japanese.
Core Cooler for runners: Jointly developed with DESCENTE JAPAN LTD. and others
Features
Cool the arteriovenous anastomoses*1 to 12°C. This effectively cools the body temperature during activities such as running and walking.
*1 Specialized blood vessels, located in the palms, soles, and cheeks, that play an important role in body temperature regulation
Sports products that use proprietary TEKION thermal storage material
- Core Cooler (TEKION cooling glove): Cooling the palm of the hand effectively inhibits a rise in core body temperature.
- TEKION Cooling Face Guard: Cools the cheeks using proprietary cold-retention material.
- With the TEKION Cooling Face Guard, people can keep cool and show proper masking etiquette while enjoying activities such as running, walking, or watching sporting events. People of all ages can use it.
Reducing to 12°C gives the ideal temperature—not too cold—to comfortably cool the body.
By cooling arteriovenous anastomoses*1, specialized blood vessels that play an important role in body temperature regulation, the rise in core body temperature is minimized. 12°C has been shown to be the ideal temperature based on research by SHARP and the National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health, Japan (JNIOSH).
