Coolers That Can Handle the Heat
Established in 1996, Tropical Ice Boxes has been keeping Aussies cool for 30 years. Built using moulds designed by the original Australian owner, our rugged, no-fuss coolers have stood the test of time —trusted in tough Australian conditions.
Australian Owned & Operated. Field Tested.
We’re a small Aussie-owned team based in Far North Queensland, with a warehouse in Brisbane. We’ve owned these ice boxes for years — taking them out bush, on the boat, fishing, camping, and permanently keeping one on the verandah for BBQs.
Living in the north, we needed something that could genuinely handle the heat and rough use. We loved the product so much… we bought the business.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
“Tough as nails and built for real conditions. Took it out west for a week and still enjoying cold beers at the end of the trip. Never going back to cheap coolers again.”
