Why Hotteeze?
- Hotteeze are the only eco-friendly heat pad available in Australia. Our specially formulated heat granules can be tipped out onto your garden. After hiking all day in the bush, you can tip the contents onto the soil and hike back lighter (with just the packaging) in your back pack. If you're a bit green you’ll want to choose pink (Hotteeze!)
- Hotteeze is an Australian owned brand and company and all our products are made in Japan with the highest quality assurance.
- Hotteeze pads stay hot for up to 14 hours. If you don’t want to use a pad up, you can store it in an airtight bag to save it for later. Hotteeze Heat Pads are air-activated.
Frequently asked questions
Q. How does a Hotteeze work?
A. Each Hotteeze heat pad contains iron powder, water, vermiculite, carbon and salt. When you open a Hotteeze, the iron oxidizes with the air, creating heat. If you accidentally open it up, quickly seal it in an airtight plastic bag to stop the oxidization process.
Q. How does a Hotteeze work?
A. No they are one use but you can use it for 6 hours then stop the heat reaction by placing in a plastic bag. Take it out the next day, expose to air and get the remaining hours!
Q. Why can’t I wear it directly on my skin?
A. You might burn yourself. Hotteeze will feel cozy at first, but after a while it will heat right up without you noticing and might feel too hot. You will probably start to sweat too, in which case the pad will slip off and you won’t get your 12 hours of guaranteed heat. Low temperature burns can occur as a result.
Q. Why shouldn’t I wear it to bed?
A. If you fall asleep wearing a Hotteeze, you cannot properly monitor your comfort level. The heat might sneak up on you and cause a low temperature burn.
Q. Are they bad for the environment?
Hotteeze contain natural ingredients which are biodegradable, so when they’re done, you can throw them away guilt-free. Because they contain salt, we don’t suggest you put them in the compost or empty them into a pot plant – just throw them away in the rubbish bin.
Q. Where do they come from?
A. Hotteeze were invented by the Japanese and are manufactured in Japan. Your Japanese friends will know them as KAIRO. They are very popular and are recommended for various remedies. For example, if you catch a cold, a Japanese person will recommend that you stick a Hotteeze over your abdomen to help you recover more quickly.
Q. What if I’m pregnant?
A. Whatever you do, do not put a Hotteeze near your abdomen, and check with your doctor before using it on any other part of your body.
Q. What if Hotteeze gets wet?
A. If you get a Hotteeze wet, you can kiss it goodbye! The water will stop the oxidization process.
Q. What if my pet eats it?
A. If swallowed, rinse the mouth with water and seek medical advice.
