IcePlate® Curve Standalone is a hard cell hydration bladder with geometry that matches the multi-curve Medium ESAPI armor plate, providing conformal cooling, heating, and hydration for plate carrier, body armor and safety vests.
IcePlate® Curve Standalone is for current IcePlate® Curve owners who are looking to purchase additional IcePlate® Curves. It is available with your choice of an IceCap to connect a drink hose, a magnetic freezer cap, or a Closed Cap for cooling/warming only.
The science behind IcePlate® Curve comes from more than two decades of research conducted by Stanford University, the US Army, USASOC, and the CDC on the effects of cooling on metabolic capacity, recovery, and heat injury prevention under PPE/MOPP and in athletics.

IcePlate® Curve Standalone is compatible with the entire IceAge Ecosystem:
IMS (IcePlate® MOLLE Sleeve)
Each Package Includes:
- 1 x IcePlate® Curve
- Choice of Cap (select IceCap for drinking capability)
One-Way Valve
(standard on all Drinkable IcePlate® Curves)
Note: Side Release Armor Straps can interfere with the One-Way Valve in rare circumstances. As such, they are ideal for light-duty applications like RSO, static security, etc. For hard-duty Military and Law Enforcement applications, we only recommend running IcePlate Curve with an IMS or IMS Pro.
