Heat Duration | Reptile shipping, long-term therapy | Industry Standard: 24–48h (maintains ≥35°C for 48h, ISO 8992) Our Base: 48h (≥38°C, ASTM E1105) Our Advanced: 72h (≥40°C, ASTM E1105) ▲▲ | ▲▲ Extended heat for transcontinental shipping/overnight therapy sessions | Higher cost for Advanced; Base may underperform in extreme cold environments |
Material Composition | Safety-critical applications | Industry Standard: Basic charcoal + plastic (ASTM D3803) Our Base: Activated carbon + non-woven fabric (98% purity, ASTM D3887) Our Advanced: Nano-activated carbon + flame-retardant fabric ▲ | ▲ Advanced: 20% faster heat release; Base: 30% lighter than industry norms | Advanced version adds 15% to cost; Base lacks fire resistance in extreme use |
Activation Method | Immediate warmth needs | Industry Standard: Requires water/activation solution (ASTM F2407) Our Base/Advanced: Air-activated (ISO 17892) ▲ | ▲ No prep required; usable in zero-power environments (e.g., wilderness) | Limited cold therapy capability unless paired with ice packs (not included) |
Safety Features | Pediatric/elderly care | Industry Standard: Basic leak-proof packaging (EN 62133) Our Base: Child-resistant seal (ASTM F963) Our Advanced: Non-toxic, biodegradable core ▲ | ▲ Advanced: 100% eco-friendly; Base: 50% fewer safety incidents reported | Advanced has slower activation (5 mins vs. Base’s instant) due to eco-materials |
Portability | Field therapy/reptile transport | Industry Standard: Bulky 20x15x5cm (ISO 2230) Our Base: Slim 12x8x2cm (USP 1224) Our Advanced: Foldable 9x6x1.5cm ▲▲ | ▲▲ Advanced fits in pockets; Base 40% lighter than industry average | Advanced’s foldable design may reduce heat retention by 10% under pressure |
Cost-Effectiveness | Budget-sensitive applications | Industry Standard: $25/unit (disposable) Our Base: $18/unit (reusable 5x) ▲ Our Advanced: $30/unit (reusable 10x) ▲▲ | ▲ Base: 30% cheaper than single-use packs; Advanced: 50% lower cost-per-use | Advanced requires initial investment; Base lacks durability for heavy use |
