At Copper Compression, copper isn't an afterthought — it's the heart of every product we make. Our lab-tested compression technology utilizes a proprietary blend of copper and nylon fibers, then applies an additional layer of copper protection, delivering maximum antimicrobial, anti-odor, and performance benefits.

ALL ABOUT COPPER
What is copper and why is it used in textiles?
Copper is a naturally occurring element known for its antimicrobial and conductive properties. When infused into textiles, it helps enhance freshness, reduce odor, and extend the life of the fabric.
Does copper really have antimicrobial properties?
Yes! Copper Compression’s proprietary copper-infused nylon compression fabric has 4-way stretch, meaning that you can easily pull CopperFreeze on and off. What’s more, our pro-grade hydrogel remains totally flexible even when frozen, means you always get 360-degree coverage with no gaps, ensuring enhanced effectiveness.
How does copper help with odor control?
Copper’s antimicrobial action helps reduce the bacteria that cause odors. When integrated into clothing or gear, it helps keep fabrics fresher for longer, even after extended use.
Will copper wash out of fabric over time?
Any material will start to degrade over time, and this process is expedited through machine washing. However, a fabric that combines copper fibers with nylon fibers will withstand repeated washes far better than one that merely adds a copper coating or spray. And the added durability of adding a metal to the fabric means that Copper Compression gear will hold up better in the washing machine than a plain nylon sleeve.
Is copper safe to wear against the skin?
Yes. Copper is a skin-safe material and has been used for thousands of years in medical and wellness applications. It is generally hypoallergenic and well-tolerated by most skin types.
How long has copper been used for health benefits?
Copper has a rich history dating back over 10,000 years. Ancient civilizations like the Egyptians, Greeks, and Romans used it for healing, sterilizing wounds, and storing drinking water safely.
Can copper-infused fabric help prevent infections?
While copper is known to reduce microbial growth, copper textiles are not classified as medical-grade infection prevention. Please ALWAYS follow competent medical advice when dealing with any potential health issue. Copper can, however, support hygiene by helping to reduce microbes on fabrics.
Does copper help regulate temperature in clothing?
Copper itself is highly conductive, which may support temperature balance in certain textiles. While it doesn’t “heat or cool” like a thermostat, copper can help fabrics feel drier and more breathable.
Is copper environmentally friendly?
Copper is a naturally occurring, fully recyclable element. Its use in long-lasting textiles can reduce waste from odor-prone, short-lived garments — supporting a more sustainable product lifecycle.
DID YOU KNOW?
A study published in the Journal of Hospital Infection revealed that copper can eliminate up to 99.0% of bacteria within just two hours.
ADDED DURABILITY
By using real copper fibers directly into the fabric, we literally add the strength of metal. The result? Compression gear that resists wear, stretch, and breakdown far better than standard textiles. It’s durability you can feel — built to support you through every rep, step, and recovery. And even means you can throw most products in the washing machine and they'll still last.
COPPER + NYLON
We don’t just spray on some copper at the end of the manufacturing process — we engineer it into every layer. Our proprietary process combines real copper fibers & nylon fibers. The result is the best of both worlds: all the health and hygenic benefits of copper PLUS all the comfort & breathability of nylon
COPPERFREEZE™
Cryo Compression™ Therapy
Introducing CopperFreeze™, a revolutionary technology that combines targeted cold & hot therapy with gentle compression for fast and effective relief on the go.
-360º Compression with No Gaps
-Hydrogel Interior Creates Instant Cold Effect
-Cloud-Like Comfort for Daily Use
How it Works
Hydrogel Technology
CopperFreeze™ is wearable cold & heat therapy with our ultra-thick Hydrogel infused beneath our Copper-infused fabric.
When the mask or sleeve is positioned against the body, an instant cold effect is gently transmitted to soft tissues, such as muscles and tendons to provide soothing effects that stimulate aid in recovery from pain function.

Can I get it fast?
Yes! Check out the delivery promise right next to the quantity selection on the product page to see your earliest delivery option.
Is CopperFreeze™ easy to use?
Yes! Copper Compression’s proprietary copper-infused nylon compression fabric has 4-way stretch, meaning that you can easily pull CopperFreeze on and off. What’s more, our pro-grade hydrogel remains totally flexible even when frozen, means you always get 360-degree coverage with no gaps, ensuring enhanced effectiveness.
How cold or hot does CopperFreeze™ get?
CopperFreeze can reach a temperature of 20-degrees Fahrenheit after 2 hours in the freezer. Let’s not try to find out how hot it can get. Use caution and only heat your CopperFreeze until it reaches a soothing warm temperature. Hot is not the goal.
How long does the cold or hot last?
Our pro-grade hydrogel maintains its temperature longer than some other options on the market. How long it stays within your perfect temperature range is going to be determined both by ambient temperature and personal preference. Under standard conditions, CopperFreeze will stay within 20-degrees Fahrenheit of initial temperature for about 20 minutes.
Is CopperFreeze™ safe to put in the microwave
Yes! But since every microwave varies in strength, it’s recommended that you start with just 30 seconds to test, then continue to warm in 10 second increments until your desired temperature is reached.
How should I store CopperFreeze™ when I’m not using it?
CopperFreeze is cold to the touch right out of the bag. It can be stored at room temperature, or if you want to enhance your cold level try keeping it in the refrigerator or freezer. Because of our pro-grade hydrogel, this extra cold will last longer, perfect for relief on the go.
Wherever you choose to keep your CopperFreeze product, it’s important that you ALWAYS keep it in the specially designed storage pouch when not in use. This will ensure maximum lifespan & effectiveness for this product.
What is Cryo Compression™?
Cryo Compression is Copper Compression's proprietary combination of antimicrobial, antiodor, copper-infused nylon compression fabric with a pro-grade hydrogel. This brings the many benefits of both Cold Therapy & compression together in one superior package. It’s an unbeatable 2-in-1 solution.
What are the benefits of Cold Therapy?
According to Johns Hopkins University, the benefits of Cold Therapy include: “It lowers your skin temperature. It reduces the nerve activity. It reduces pain and swelling. Experts believe that cryotherapy can reduce swelling, which is tied to pain. It may also reduce sensitivity to pain. Cryotherapy may be particularly effective when you are managing pain with swelling, especially around a joint or tendon.”
What are the benefits of compression?
Compression is one of the most scientifically-backed pain-relief and recovery methodologies available. Gentle circumferential compression reduces inflammation, improves blood flow, and improves proprioceptory stability. Great for pain relief, injury recovery & improved performance.
Can’t I just use an ice pack?
No! Not only do ice packs make a mess, they get solid when fully frozen, meaning you can never get consistent even cold therapy everywhere that you need it. Do your body a favor and get CopperFreeze.
