NexTemp® Is Reinventing the Thermometer for Modern Families, Travelers, and Everyday Wellness
As we head into another flu season, staying aware of your health, whether at home, on the go, or in clinical settings, has never been more important. With travel picking up and families spending more time together indoors, many Americans are preparing for the wave of coughs, colds, and fevers that comes with the season.
While most of us think of the obvious flu and cold-fighters (vitamins, hand sanitizer, and disinfecting wipes), there’s one health essential that’s often overlooked until it’s needed most: a reliable thermometer.
NexTemp® offers a line of single-use thermometers that are smarter, safer, and more hygienic ways to check temperature. Created by Medical Indicators, Inc., the same FDA-registered U.S. manufacturer behind the trusted Tempa•DOT® line used in hospitals and clinics worldwide, NexTemp is designed to bring professional-grade accuracy to everyday people.
Why Go for a Disposable Thermometer?
Traditional digital thermometers have been all we’ve ever known, but they’re not always a sanitary choice, especially in shared environments. Traditional thermometers hold onto bacteria that can stay on the surface even after wiping. Apart from the hygiene concerns, another major drawback of traditional thermometers is that their batteries often die when you need them most.
NexTemp solves both problems with a battery-free, single-use design that delivers accurate readings in just 10 seconds. Each thermometer uses liquid crystal technology that changes color to indicate temperature, so there’s no need for electronics or charging. After it’s used, you can simply throw it away without the fuss of disinfecting or tossing it back into your junk drawer. A disposable thermometer is a handy choice for quickly checking multiple people’s temperatures without worry, whether it’s one sick person or a whole household.
Designed for Everyday Lifestyle
What makes NexTemp® stand out is how easily it fits into every lifestyle, whether you’re a parent, a frequent traveler, or a healthcare professional looking for safe, accurate temperature checks.
For families, especially those with younger kids, taking your child’s temperature isn’t always the easiest. That’s where TraxIt®, NexTemp’s continuous-monitoring thermometer, makes a difference. It gently adheres like a sticker under the arm and provides up to 48 hours of continuous temperature tracking, so you can monitor your child’s temperature without waking them up or trying to get them to sit still for a fever check. Waterproof, latex-free, and hypoallergenic, it’s comfortable enough for sleeping, bath time, water activities, or playtime, making it one of the best thermometers for kids this flu season.
For adults managing at-home wellness, NexTemp’s single-use thermometers are a reliable, hygienic, and battery-free alternative to traditional models. For travelers, NexTemp® Go is a TSA-approved, compact, and travel-friendly gadget that is lightweight and fits easily into every carry-on or first aid kit.
Preparing for Flu Season
This year’s flu season is expected to be unpredictable, as respiratory viruses like COVID-19 and RSV continue to circulate. Spotting a fever early on and monitoring your temperature when feeling run down play a major role in preventing spread.
You’ll want a reliable product to carry you through the season ahead. Every NexTemp® thermometer is manufactured in the United States at an FDA-registered, ISO-certified facility. Unlike many thermometers that are shipped from overseas, NexTemp’s design prioritizes sustainability, safety, and quality control. Each thermometer is non-toxic, mercury-free, and environmentally responsible, helping minimize waste while promoting hygiene and reliability.
In a world where the importance of taking care of our health is at an all-time high, even the simplest tools can make a major difference. NexTemp’s single-use thermometers provide a reliable, hygienic, and travel-friendly solution that meets people where they are, whether that’s at home, in school, or halfway across the world.
