Is It Like a "Human Refrigerator"!? The Latest Trending Cooling Experience
Osaka’s summers are getting more intense every year.
In addition to heatstroke prevention measures like staying hydrated, taking frequent breaks, and seeking shade, “cooling technology” that utilizes the latest innovations has been gaining attention in recent years.
Among these, the “Do-Hiemon BOX”—a personal cooling box developed by TRUSCO—is generating a lot of buzz.
This cutting-edge heat countermeasure device has become a hot topic on social media and in the news as the “Human Refrigerator” because it feels just like stepping inside a refrigerator.
It cools your entire body down in one go, from head to toe.
Conventional heat countermeasures have primarily focused on cooling the neck area or parts of the body covered by clothing.
With the “Do-Hiemon BOX,” simply stepping inside and sitting down allows cool air at approximately 5°C to be blown from the back and neck area, efficiently cooling the entire body. The cool air, comparable to that of a refrigerator’s chilled compartment, quickly refreshes an overheated body.
Both the cool air temperature and airflow can be adjusted to one of three levels, and it features an automatic shut-off function after 20 minutes, ensuring comfortable use while preventing you from getting too cold.


No installation work is required, and it can be set up indoors or outdoors.
It plugs into a standard 100V outlet and requires no special installation work.
It is expected to be useful in a variety of places where people gather—not only factories, construction sites, and logistics facilities, but also event venues and sports competitions.
It is equipped with casters for easy mobility and features a rain-resistant design (IPX3). Its versatility for both indoor and outdoor use is another key feature.

The rain-resistant plug ensures safe outdoor use.

It can be moved using casters with brakes.

Magnets (sold separately) can be attached to both the inside and outside.

When not in use, you can lock it with the included padlock.

The airflow can be adjusted to three different levels.

The coolness of the airflow can also be adjusted in three levels.
From an era of “putting up with the heat” to an era of “controlling the heat.”
Now that extreme heat has become the norm, preventing heatstroke requires more than just staying hydrated; creating an environment that incorporates the latest technology is also crucial.
In Osaka, various heat-mitigation measures are being implemented, such as underground shopping arcades, misting stations, and “Cool Share” facilities.
This cutting-edge cooling technology is also one of the new ways to enjoy summer.
The “Do-Hiemon BOX” is an innovative piece of equipment designed to efficiently cool the entire body, and as such, it is a highly anticipated piece of cooling gear set to support future heatwave countermeasures.
