Igloo Introduces the Gripper CoolBox: The Hardworkin’ Lunchbox Crafted for Hard-Earned Lunch Breaks

Durable and feature‑driven, Igloo engineered its brand‑new personal cooler for every worker from jobsite pros to office commuters

KATY, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Today, Igloo, The Cooler Brand, launches the Gripper CoolBox 10 Qt Cooler, a new personal cooler engineered as a modern, highly durable everyday lunchbox. Purpose‑built for a wide range of daily routines — trade professionals, factory crews, delivery drivers, office commuters and anyone who needs their food and drinks to stay fresh through long, demanding days — the Gripper CoolBox delivers on durability, performance and utility; it’s available now at igloocoolers.com/coolbox.

“As we designed the Gripper CoolBox, our team focused on building a lunch cooler that truly supports the workman through the entire day,” said John Maldonado, Senior Director of Product Design at Igloo. “We put a great deal of thought into how real lunches are packed — making sure containers sit flat, adding an attic compartment to protect crushable snacks and engineering a base and latch system that stays put and stays shut through daily handling. Every decision was about practical performance and handy organization, so whatever your workday looks like, your lunch is fresh and ready when you are.”

Built as “The Hardworkin’ Lunchbox,” the Gripper CoolBox features a fully insulated, injection‑molded construction that provides impressive ruggedness and extended ice retention, plus a convenient built‑in gripper handle, leak‑resistant gasket, toolbox‑tough latches and a stay‑put rubberized base. Priced at $59.99, the 10‑quart cooler offers substantial capacity to pack meals, snacks, bottles and containers for long days — whether those days are spent at a worksite, in a warehouse, across delivery routes or squeezing in lunch between meetings.

Thoughtfully crafted with unexpected organization, the Gripper CoolBox incorporates attic‑style lid storage with a flexible clip‑in divider to easily secure snacks, canned drinks (up to 3) or ice substitutes. The cooler’s main interior space generously holds up to 8 cans or a combination of containers, snacks and drinks. Together with its rugged construction and smart internal layout, the Gripper CoolBox delivers the performance and ease that help make busy days feel more manageable — and lunch breaks more enjoyable.

The Gripper CoolBox 10 Qt Cooler is available now at igloocoolers.com/coolbox, Walmart and Academy Sports + Outdoors.

About Igloo:

Born from a modest metalworking shop back in 1947, Igloo has been instrumental in redefining how we live, work and play. What began with bringing clean water to the worksite quickly moved into super-functional, best-in-class ice chests. Igloo products made the family outdoor recreation movement of the 20th century possible. Suddenly, taking your kids camping on the weekend became easy and cross-country road trips became a summer vacation staple.

As we approach our next century, Igloo is 1,200 employees strong. We are proud to call—a 1.8-million-square-foot, three-building facility in—Katy, Texas home. With more than 500 products sold at thousands of retailers around the globe, we can confidently call ourselves the number one cooler manufacturer in the world.

And through it all we haven’t lost sight of our original goal—to create products that enable the pursuit of happiness (however you define it). That’s why we’re still working hard every day to innovate, create and make it easier for you to get out, work hard and play even harder.
