Hot packs for necks and electric hot scarves: inventive heating products abound

2022-12-30

Businesses are getting creative in solutions to the cold weather! Everyone knows there are hot packs for warming up your hands. And now you can get hot packs for your neck, and hot slippers for your icy toes! There are also electric scarves, and mini heaters for the desk, which automatically go into power-saving mode when you take a break. Let’s take a look at some of the more inventive products that can keep you cozy this winter.

It’s cold outside, but competition is heating up for creative products to stay toasty.

The old heat packs had to be held in the hands. Now there’s also this kind: a heat warmer to hang round the neck. You can hang it round your neck just like a scarf, and do other things with your hands.

This super convenient warmer warms up your neck without the need for a bulky, heavy scarf. But it’s disposable, and only works for five to eight hours. There’s also this heat-emitting scarf, which can be reused, but needs to be plugged into a portable battery to start. And there are products for the legs too…

These foot warmers are so fluffy and soft inside. This young woman is transformed into a brown bear! You can roll up the bottoms to reveal your toes, and easily walk steadily on the floor.

In the winter I do feel the cold quite a lot. I can wear these while I work on the computer or watch TV.

It’s not just at home that we’re feeling the cold. Walking around the office can be chilly. This little heater can detect when there’s a person within 2 meters, and automatically starts to work. It’s a personalized heater that saves power when you’re away from your desk.

The weather has gotten a lot colder recently, and there are lots of cold spells one after the other. So sales of our heating products have risen greatly, by more than 30%, across our electric heaters, heat packs, hot eggs, and other products. Lots of our customers belong to younger demographics, such as students or office workers.

Businesses are vying to make the most of the cold. The market for products to warm up a desk or some frozen toes is big at this time of year, and the options are growing.

天冷辦公族福音! 創意保暖小物超熱銷

2022-12-30

寒流一波波,民眾受凍哀嚎,創意保暖小物意外熱銷,像是毛茸茸的小熊腿褲,舒服包覆整雙腿;還有頸掛式暖暖包、發熱圍巾,以及一靠近就會自動發熱的「人體感知暖爐」,堪稱是辦公族的福音。

天氣冷颼颼,保暖小物不只考驗實用性,也開始比創意。

以往天冷暖暖包都得拿在手上,現在多了這種頸掛式的暖暖包,只要當作圍巾(scarf),掛在脖子上,雙手就可以繼續做其他的事。

超方便暖暖包,不用圍著厚厚圍巾,也能溫暖包覆脖子,不過拋棄式,每次只能維持5到8小時。另外這台發熱圍巾,雖然可以重覆用,但需要插著一台行動電源,才能啟動。而上半身暖夠了,下半身也不能冷到。

穿上腳套,從裡到外毛茸茸,少女化身超萌小熊,還能拉開布套露出腳趾,隨時行走,不怕打滑。

“冬天的時候會比較怕冷,就可以穿它打電腦或看電視。”

不只在家要防寒,辦公室裡,走來走去,這台暖爐只要偵測到兩公尺內沒有人,就會自動停止運作,貼心成為你的專屬發熱機,還能替你省電。

[[生活居家用品業者 莊耀華]]
“最近天氣變冷蠻多的,陸續都有寒流到來,所以我們在保暖商品,不管是電暖器,還是暖暖包、暖暖蛋之類的,業績都有大幅成長3成以上。年輕族群像是學生,或是上班族其實都蠻多的。”

冬天防寒大作戰,辦公室暖物超級熱銷,上班族愛自己,無論上班、下班都不能被冷到。
