    Professionally Researched. (What's this?)

    Niichi Matoba, who founded the Japanese company Hakukin-kairo (Hakkin warmer), is credited with being the inventor of portable chemical hot packs in 1923. Matoba used the name kairo for his invention from the Japanese "kaichu kairo," meaning portable pocket warmer.
