RINI Technologies Embarks on Quick Reaction Fund Project to Get Personal Cooling in the Hands of Our Warfighters. The project will fund the test and evaluation of RINI's Micro Climate Cooling System for ground soldier applications. The project will be administered at the Natick Soldier Center. For more information about this contract award, please email us at info@rinitech.com.

Micro Climate Cooling put to the test at Fort Dix. The MCCS was recently tested at Fort Dix, the soldier ran 0.5 mile without cooling unit and then with cooling unit to determine the cooling effect. The tests at Fort Dix were performed utilizing the Future Force Warrior ensemble. The soldier's response was very positive, "Cooling capability is right on... awesome job." More info...
