Mexar manufactures wearable cooling systems that augment the body’s natural thermoregulation to lower heat strain for workers in high‑temperature environments such as construction and outdoor trades. The devices are sold directly to enterprises, enabling safety managers to protect staff and maintain productivity during peak heat periods. Revenue is generated through bulk enterprise orders, with production prioritized for teams preparing for seasonal heat spikes.

Problem
Workers in construction and other physically demanding jobs are exposed to high temperatures, leading to heat stress, reduced productivity, and potential health risks. Existing cooling solutions are often bulky, uncomfortable, or ineffective at maintaining a safe body temperature during strenuous activity.
Solution
Mexar is developing "Permafrost," a wearable climate control device designed to regulate body temperature and enhance safety for individuals working in extreme heat. The lightweight device is scientifically tested to keep users cooler during exertion in high-temperature environments. Through targeted cooling, Permafrost aims to mitigate the negative impacts of heat stress, improve worker comfort, and increase productivity in demanding work conditions.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes construction workers and other professionals who perform physically demanding tasks in hot environments.
Features
- Wearable device designed for climate control
