WHERE DOES heat it ® COME FROM?
Like many good ideas, heat it® started as a solution to a problem the inventors encountered themselves: itchy insect bites... and no solution that really works well and that you always have with you.
In Germany, four students decided there had to be a smarter way. What started as a simple idea grew into heat it®. A medically certified product that is now used by millions of people worldwide. Production is deliberately kept in-house: every heat it® is still made and tested in Germany.
ARE THERE OTHER THINGS I SHOULD KEEP IN MIND?
Yes, be careful with lending it out. For heat it®, the well-known "this really works" effect applies: you lend it to someone... and you never get it back. So keep it close to you.
