Update: July 18,2015
We have relaunched on Kickstarter. On this second round we've landed better manufacturing options which allow for much lower backer levels. We've also been able to include multiple ColdCan's at some of the backer levels!

ColdCan – Only Beverage Insulator to use Spacesuit
Technology now Launching on Kickstarter.com
Houston Texas , April 28, 2014
World’s first
high-tech, modular beverage insulator created by two man startup in Houston,
Texas is now launching on Kickstarter.
The ColdCan keeps cold drinks colder, longer, by using
spacesuit insulation technology to lock in the cold. The first-ever drink
insulator holds 12 ounce cans or 16 ounce cans with a simple snap on Riser
attachment. With patent-pending universal fittings and modular design, the
ColdCan is designed to include additional attachments for drinking from bottles
and cups.
Co-creators, T.J. Henderson and Justin McCullough began
creating the ColdCan in 2012 as an answer to a simple question – “why is
everyone still using cheap, ineffective, foam koozies for cans and bottles when
everyone knows they don’t actually keep drinks cold?” The answer is clear; lack
of innovation or use of current technology and therefore no product options for
a truly attractive and functional drink insulator. “Apparently the bravest
thing to happen to the koozie took place decades ago when its price dropped to
pennies and everyone figured out how to slap a logo and business address on it.”
claim the creators of the ColdCan.
After two years of designs and prototypes, the ColdCan is
now finalized and completely engineered to be stylish, attractive, modular, and
effective. “Everyone loves the concept, the prototypes and how it works”, says
co-creator T.J. Henderson, “we’re proud of the ColdCan and we feel like it’s
the kind of product that’s just as relevant and cool as the people who drink
from them”.
The ColdCan is now available for backer support on
Kickstarter.com and will be available in the summer of 2014. “We’re using
Kickstarter to launch the ColdCan because as fellow backers, we’re a part of
that community and feel like it’s filled with like-minded people who love good
products,good design and being a part
of creating something great.” said Justin McCullough, co-creator.
The ColdCan is made of BPA-Free Polypropelene , Santoprene
rubber, and Cryogel, a derivative of the same substance (Silica Aerogel) used
in NASA spacesuits. The ColdCan beverage insulator includes the Core unit for
12 ounce cans and the Riser attachment for 16 ounce cans. The ColdCan has a
patent-pending modular design, spill-proof lid, and is lightweight,
impact-resistant, floats and fits most cup holders. Both the ColdCan Core and
Riser attachment are available in seven colors; Polar White, Black Ice, Frosted
Steel, Pink Flurry, Icicle Blue, Red Crush and Orange Chill along with two
premium design patterns; digital camo and hunter’s camo. With all materials
sourced and manufactured in the United States, the ColdCan is 100% American
made. Learn more at www.TheColdCan.com .
Support the ColdCan on Kickstarter and bring new life and
innovation to drinking cold beverages.
