- ROTOMOLDED - If the walls of a cooler aren’t uniform in thickness, the strength and durability of that cooler is questionable at best. Our coolers are built with rotationally-molded LLDPE plastic to ensure even wall thickness, durability, and max performance on every adventure.
- ECOMATE INSULATION - We want to protect The Good Land for all of us to enjoy. KENAI Coolers use Ecomate for optimal cooling. We also use it because this unique insulation has no global warming potential, no ozone depletion potential, and is made with no volatile organic compounds.
- LID GASKET - A cooler isn't cool if it doesn't keep things cold. KENAI Cooler lids seal for optimal insulation even in hot temperatures with a silicone rubber gasket to keep cold air trapped inside to extend the life of ice. Everything for your adventures stay colder, fresher, longer.
- LATCHES - When you've got an armful of stuff for the cooler and no one's around to open the lid for you - what do you do? Give a quick, one-handed flip of the latch and you're in. So is your stuff. Secure the latch and the lid won't open. Genius.

FEATURES
ROTOMOLDED | If the walls of a cooler aren’t uniform in thickness, the strength and durability of that cooler is questionable at best. Our coolers are built with rotationally-molded LLDPE plastic to ensure even wall thickness, durability, and max performance on every adventure. |
INTEGRATED HINGE | There aren’t many parts of a cooler that don’t take a beating. One in particular, the lid hinge. KENAI Coolers features a forward-thinking integrated, interlocking hinge design to perform over a lifetime of rugged use. |
SILICONE LID GASKET | A cooler isn’t cool if it doesn’t keep things cold. KENAI Cooler lids seal for optimal insulation even in hot temperatures with a silicone rubber gasket to keep cold air trapped inside to extend the life of ice. Everything for your adventures stay colder, fresher, longer. |
ECOMATE INSULATION | We want to protect The Good Land for all of us to enjoy. KENAI Coolers use Ecomate for optimal cooling. We also use it because this unique insulation has no global warming potential, no ozone depletion potential, and is made with no volatile organic compounds. |
MOLDED-IN HANDLES | Carrying a loaded cooler isn’t on anyone’s list of favorite things to do. But, this chore is made easier with built-in molded handles. Just one of two carry options with the KENAI Dual Handle System |
ROPE HANDLES | Swing the cooler into the back of your truck or hop on a boat with your buddies with ease. Grab the rubber griped handles and carry with comfort to camp. We have even provided a sleeve over the rope to insure no, sun or water rot over the years, because we know that you cooler is not just sitting in a garage from month to month! It hits the elements and a rope handle should last a lifetime. |
LATCHES | When you’ve got an armful of stuff for the cooler and no one’s around to open the lid for you - what do you do? Give a quick, one-handed flip of the latch and you’re in. So is your stuff. Secure the latch and the lid won’t open. Genius. |
DRAIN SYSTEM | Loading your cooler at the start of your adventure is a lot more fun than draining it at the end. KENAI makes draining easy, fast, and clean with a full length drain channel and easy grip plug. |
GRIP FEET | You want a secure grip from your boots, your fly rod, to your tires. Why should your cooler deliver anything less? It shouldn’t. Grip Feet on your KENAI Coolers keep it from moving and shifting on almost any surface. |
2" TIEDOWN SLOTS | Make sharp turns, ride out bumps, head straight up the mountain or to the river below knowing your KENAI Cooler will stay right where you want it with tie-down slots for your truck, boat, or UTV. |
DRY ICE COMPATIBLE | Dry Ice delivers long lasting cooling. So, it makes sense that KENAI Coolers are made to work with Dry Ice. Use our coolers exclusively with Dry Ice or mix with cubed ice to deliver the cooling performance you’re looking for. |
DIVIDER SLOTS | Get the most out of the space inside your cooler with Divider Slots to help separate ice, foods, and drinks. |
KENAI COOLER BEST PRACTICES
START WITH A COOL COOLER: If stored in warm places, a significant amount of ice will be wasted cooling the cooler itself. Preload your cooler a few hours prior to use with a sacrificial bag of ice to cool it down.
ICE TEMPERATURES VARY SIGNIFICANTLY: Warm ice (around 32°F) is typically wet or dripping, and won’t last long. Ice that is colder than the freezing point is relatively dry and will last substantially longer.
BLOCK ICE VS. CUBED ICE: Smaller, cubed ice will chill a cooler and the contents more quickly, but block ice melts at a much slower rate. Use a mix of both to chill contents and achieve long-term ice retention.
ICE-TO-DRINK RATIO: The optimum ice-to-drink ratio is 2:1 by volume. Example for every 12 oz can add about 3 cups of ice.
AIR IS THE ENEMY: Large areas of air inside your cooler will accelerate ice-melt as the ice is consumed cooling the air. These spaces are best filled with extra ice, towels, or crumpled newspaper if weight is a concern.
DON'T DRAIN THE WATER: Once your cooler is in use, DO NOT empty the cold water. The water helps to insulate the remaining ice. However, exposed food and meat should be kept out of the water.
SUNLIGHT IS A HEAT SOURCE: Keep your cooler out of direct sunlight when possible. Ice can last up to twice as long in the shade.
LIMIT COOLER ACCESS: Every time you open the cooler, you are exchanging the cold air inside for warm air outside that must then be cooled, causing faster ice-melt.
GRIZZLY ICE AMP & ICE DIVIDERS: Extend your regular ice with ICE AMPs or ICE DIVIDERS both have a phase change state just below that of regular ice. That phase change allows the ICE AMP or ICE DIVERS to do all the cooling work before your ice melts.
