Heat-Absorbing Sleep Mats

The Kobayashi Pharmaceutica Keeps You Cool All Night Long

Summer is here, and with it come the nights in which it's too hot to fall asleep; thankfully, the Kobayashi Pharmaceutica is here to help. Besides its funky name, this mat is made out of reusable gel that cools its surrounding area.

The Kobayashi Pharmaceutica is loaded with polymer gel and can easily be washed when dirty. When the mat is placed underneath your sheets, the polymer gel absorbs body heat, making your bed a cooler place to sleep. The gel mat isn't just for sleeping, though -- you can use it in any other spot that tends to get too warm for comfort.
