As explained by the Eleventh and Twelfth Doctors, the Ice Warriors constructed and wore bio-mechanical survival armour for protection so they could exist in the freezing cold of their homeworld, Mars.

As noted by the Eleventh Doctor, a sudden increase in temperature, such as being struck by a cattle prod, sent the armour haywire.
