Its distinctive boomerang shape fits comfortably around the neck, delivering quick cooling so runners stay fresh throughout any distance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned to overcome the common issues found in other cooling bandanas that use ice as the primary fuel for cooling, the Berg is a lighter solution that can cool for longer using only water. Ice is an optional addition when itʼs available during a race. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt's very easy to use. To activate the Berg, just soak it in water from a fountain or stream, or pour water over it from your soft flask or bottle. Whenever you need a boost, just add water to recharge its cooling properties. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Berg is also available in a white label or OEM version.

You can tuck the ends into a shirt or suit to cover the chest, or position them over the shoulders. This flexibility allow athletes to choose their preferred cooling areas.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDifferent materials that store water. The Bergʼs fabrics absorb and retain water, keeping cooling fuel close to the skin. The material is thicker at the back of the neck, a particularly sensitive area.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA small ice pocket at the back. It holds a few ice cubes for rapid relief. Unlike with a typical ice bandana, the surrounding material absorbs the meltwater, extending the cooling effect after the ice is gone.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy is ice a better cooling fuel than ice?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne critical point that sets the Berg apart from ice bandanas is that it uses water as the main cooling fuel. And that's for a good reason: it's a much better cooling fuel than ice. Most people believe that the best way to cool down the body is to use ice, but physics tells a different story.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eActive Cooling works in a very simple way: ice absorbs heat as it melts, and water absorbs heat as it evaporates. That helps remove the excess heat produced by the body during exercise.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor the same amount of water, evaporation requires a lot more energy (cooling watts) than melting, as shown in the table below.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable width=\"341\" height=\"24\" style=\"width: 89.3993%; height: 39.1876px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 49.8195%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e Phase Change\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 49.8195%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEstimated cooling power\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 49.8195%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003eIce melting\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 49.8195%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e ~93 W\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 49.8195%;\"\u003eWater warming from 0°C to 30°C\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 49.8195%;\"\u003e ~35 W\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 49.8195%;\"\u003eWater evaporation\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 49.8195%;\"\u003e~675 W\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 49.8195%;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTotal\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 49.8195%;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e~803 W\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEvaporation can provide \u003cstrong\u003emore than fives times the cooling power \u003c\/strong\u003eof ice melting and water warming combined.
