The main thing that sets Techni Ice coolers apart from big names like YETI and K2 is the fact they have almost double the insulation. The insulated walls on a YETI are about 2”, while the average thickness on a Techni Ice is about 3.9”, with 3.5” thick lids.
Construction-wise they’re built with the same rotomolding technique as everything else, where a liquid polyethylene is injected into a mold and then rotated until it cures/hardens completely, before being injected with a polyurethane insulating foam.
Another reason why ice lasts so much longer in a Techni Ice is the fact that they’re raised off the ground. YETI’s and every other rotomolded cooler we’ve ever seen before is flat on the bottom and rests on the ground – the problem with that is heat from the ground easily transfers up into the bottom of the cooler.
In a Techni Ice Box, the entire cooler body is isolated from the ground, giving the ice chest its own little microenvironment and allowing it to maintain its internal temperature for a much longer time.
