[ OVERVIEW ]
The Booster Rocket for the human body.
Worn close to the body, ICEPLATE® Curve is a Medium ESAPI-shaped water bottle that cools/warms/hydrates you with 50 fl oz (1.5 L) of drinking water delivering 70 watts of cooling power and 52 watts of heating power with hands-free plate carrier hydration or backpack hydration for unparalleled control over your environment. Another way to think of ICEPLATE is like a booster rocket: designed to put you into orbit with a full tank of gas, not necessarily to last the entire mission. Engineered for elite users looking for every edge in the performance of their duties, ICEPLATE® Curve creates decisive competitive advantages where none previously existed by weaponizing temperature to enhance performance and survivability. Anyone looking to settle for "good enough" should look elsewhere.
Note: We recommend using our IMS, IMS Pro or IMS VERSA when running ICEPLATE® Curve or ICEPLATE® Classic with a plate carrier. Click here to see which one is right for you. For Sport and recreational use, we recommend using our IMS Sport or ICEPLATE EXO®-XFT.

[ WHAT'S INCLUDED ]
[ SELECT A 'CHASSIS' FOR ICEPLATE® CURVE ]
We view our product line via a very simple division of function. We have a powerful hydration, cooling and heating ‘Battery’ in the ICEPLATE® Curve, with the ability to freeze ICEPLATE® Curve for 70 watts of cooling or alternatively, fill with hot water for up to 52 watts of conductive heating power. ICEPLATE® Curve creates a performance-enhancement and environmental inoculation capability without rival.
Our ICEPLATE® Curve ‘Battery’ needs a ‘Chassis’ to be used to its full potential. Whether you need cooling, heating, hydration or a combo of the three, we have a wide selection of vests and backpacks intended to optimize use of the ICEPLATE® Curve.
Our primary users are divided into:
- MIL / LEO / Civilian
- Safety
- SPORT
Within these groups, we have solutions for a wide variety of activity and end-user. The ICEPLATE® Curve constantly find new uses as customers experiment with fresh ways to remove environmental constraints from both work and leisure activities. The only limitation is your creativity, with customers ranging from frontline military use to Drive Thru workers to wedding photographers and much more. Anywhere you need hydration, cooling or heating, ICEPLATE® Curve can boost your performance.
We strongly advise pairing the ICEPLATE® Curve with a Chassis that best fits your use case. For more information, see our article: How do I wear ICEPLATE®?

Optimized
Optimized for ICEPLATE EXO® compatibility.
Fill Line
Permanent Fill Line is molded into ICEPLATE Curve and gives the water room to expand as it freezes.
Versatile
ICEPLATE® Curve can be worn outside any MOLLE equipped plate carrier using an IMS Combo or attached inside or outside a plate carrier using an IMS Pro Combo. Click here to learn about the difference between IMS and IMS Pro.
Purpose-Built
ICEPLATE® Curve fits inside any Medium ESAPI-compatible plate carrier by itself for training/physical fitness workouts like The Tactical Games, Crossfit, Memorial Day Murph, etc. Click here for all the ways to carry ICEPLATE® Curve.
