Cooler bag design trend: portability and practicality

At present, portability and practicality have become the two key trends in the design of cooler bags, which are specifically reflected in the following aspects:

Structural design:

Lightweight: Designers are increasingly focusing on using lightweight materials, such as thin but strong plastics, nylon, polyester fibers, etc., to reduce the overall weight of the cooler bag and make it easier to carry. For example, some small portable cooler bags are made of ultra-light materials and weigh only a few hundred grams. Whether it is carrying lunch to work or carrying a small amount of food and drinks when going out for fun, it is very easy.

Foldable: The foldable design can save space when not in use, making it easy to store.

This design of cooler bag has enough capacity to store items when unfolded, and the volume is small after folding, which can be easily put into a backpack, car trunk or locker at home. For example, some foldable cooler bags for outdoor use are similar in size to ordinary handbags when folded, and can hold several bottles of drinks and some food when unfolded.

Ergonomic handles or shoulder straps: In order to facilitate users to carry, the cooler bag is equipped with ergonomic handles or shoulder straps. The shape and material of the handles are carefully designed to be comfortable to hold without causing pressure on the hands; the shoulder straps can be adjusted in length and width to disperse the weight and reduce the burden on the shoulders. Some large cooler bags are also equipped with shoulder straps, allowing users to carry them as easily as carrying a schoolbag.

Space layout:

Multi-layer partitions: The internal space adopts a multi-layer partition design, which can store different types of items separately and keep them neat and orderly. For example, some cooler bags are designed with multiple compartments and mesh bags inside, which can place food, drinks, tableware, etc. separately to avoid mutual squeezing and collision, and also make it convenient for users to quickly find the required items.

Independent storage area: Some cooler bags will have independent storage areas, such as compartments specifically for placing ice bags or ice cubes, to ensure the refrigeration effect. This design can separate the ice bag from the food to prevent the water after the ice bag melts from soaking the food, and it is also convenient to replace the ice bag and extend the refrigeration time.

Functional expansion:

Multi-functional accessories: Some cooler bags will be equipped with additional functional accessories to increase their practicality. For example, some cold storage bags are equipped with bottle openers on the outside, which is convenient for opening beverage bottles outdoors; some cold storage bags have USB interfaces, which can be connected to mobile power supplies to charge mobile phones and other electronic devices.

Temperature display and adjustment: Some high-end cold storage bags have temperature display functions, and users can understand the temperature inside the bag in real time. Some smart cold storage bags can also adjust and monitor the temperature by connecting to mobile phone APP, which is convenient for users to set the appropriate temperature according to different needs.

Material selection:

High-quality insulation materials: In order to improve the refrigeration effect and thermal insulation performance, designers use high-quality insulation materials. These materials have good thermal insulation properties, which can effectively block the entry of external heat and maintain the low or high temperature state inside the bag. Common insulation materials include polyurethane, epe foam, aerogel, etc.

Waterproof and anti-fouling fabrics: Considering the outdoor use scenarios, the fabrics of cold storage bags need to have waterproof and anti-fouling functions, so that they can be easily wiped and cleaned when encountering rain or stains, keeping the bag clean and tidy. For example, cold storage bags made of nylon fabrics or TPU materials with waterproof coatings are not only waterproof, but also wear-resistant.
