English to French: About us
Source text - English It began in a freezing cold flat in south London, UK
In early 2010, Richard, like anyone else struggling with the chilly London winters, filled up his traditionally square hot water bottle to relieve himself of the goosebumps that seemed as if they ran all the way down to his core. Annoyed with constantly having to keep moving his bottle around his body to cater to his parts not covered by the warmth, he thought to himself:
Why in the world do they not make these things longer?
Long story short: He then went off to do just that. This eureka moment of his set off the long journey, that would eventually lead up to so much more than the mere realisation of a longer version of the age-old hot water bottle.
How long could it possibly be?
The mission was to design a hot water bottle that was not only longer and bigger, but more practical as well. Although the length of the design was eventually set at 81 centimeters (two feet and eight inches!), the bottle’s clever design would require only as much hot water for its filling as did the traditional square shaped bottle. Thus, the kettle would not need to be boiled any more times than before — just once.
Let's find the best rubber trees in the world!
In our effort to be an eco-friendly and sustainably aware brand, the biodegradable, Grade A rubber used for our bottles comes from Sri Lanka. This grade A rubber is no joke! Due to its long form, flexibility and softness, the YUYU can bring warmth and comfort to joints, shoulders, abdomens and backs, relieving unwelcome aches, pains and built-up tension.

The quest to also please the eye
Most households in the UK own a hot water bottle; the market is flooded with them, but we wanted our YUYU Bottle to be extra special and luxurious.
A product that was not just revolutionary in length but also in the way it was produced. Targeting high-end department stores, the YUYU wasn't launched as a mass-market product. Our covers are available in a variety of fabrics ranging from cashmere from Inner Mongolia, Liberty Prints and Japanese cottons, luxury fleece, Belgian linen and stunning tartan designs from the leading tartan manufacture in the world.
Let's make it revolutionary!
As the long and flexible bottle already wraps around you, the added strap makes it quite revolutionary.
Popular ways of wearing it include strapping the bottle around the waist to target the abdomen and lower back, and over the neck or shoulder and upper back. Not only could you move around the house with the bottle but the strap enables you to take it outside, and perhaps wear it snuggly under a coat.
Translation - French TOUT A COMMENCÉ DANS UN APPARTEMENT GLACÉ DANS LE SUD DE LONDRES
Début 2010, Richard, comme n'importe quelle personne qui lutte contre les hivers glacials de Londres, a rempli sa bouillotte traditionnelle carrée pour se débarrasser de la chair de poule qui semblait l'étreindre jusqu'au plus profond de son être. Agacé de devoir constamment déplacer la bouillotte sur les divers endroits de son corps qui n'étaient pas enveloppés par la chaleur , il pensa en lui-même:
Pourquoi ces choses ne sont-elles pas plus longues?
À QUEL POINT CELA POURRAIT-IL ÊTRE GRAND?
La mission était de concevoir une bouillotte qui serait non seulement plus longue et plus grande, mais aussi plus pratique. Bien que la taille finale ait été déterminée à 81 cm, le design intelligent de la bouteille requiert autant d'eau qu'une bouillotte traditionnelle. Ainsi, vous n'avez besoin de faire chauffer la bouilloire qu'une seule fois.
TROUVONS LES MEILLEURS ARBRES À CAOUTCHOUC DU MONDE!
Le caoutchouc de grade A et biodégradable utilisé pour nos bouillottes provient du Sri Lanka. Ce caoutchouc de grade A, c'est du sérieux! Grâce à sa forme allongée, sa souplesse et sa douceur, la YuYu apporte chaleur et confort aux articulations, aux épaules, au ventre et au dos, soulageant ainsi les douleurs et les tensions accumulées.
EN QUÊTE DE BEAUTÉ
La plupart des foyers au Royaume-Uni possèdent une bouillotte, la marché en est inondé, mais nous voulions que notre bouillotte soit spéciale et luxueuse.
Un produit qui ne serait pas seulement révolutionnaire de par sa taille mais également par la façon dont il est produit. Visant les boutiques de luxe, la YuYu n'a pas été commercialisée comme un produit pour le grand public. Nos housses sont disponibles dans une large gamme de tissus, allant du cachemire de Mongolie intérieure, des imprimés Liberty et du coton japonais, de la fausse fourrure luxueuse, du lin de Belgique et de magnifiques motifs Tartan provenant du fabricant leader dans le monde.
FAISONS QUELQUE CHOSE D'EXCEPTIONNEL!
La bouillotte longue et souple enveloppe votre corps, l'ajout d'une sangle est assez révolutionnaire.
Il y a diverses façons populaires de la porter: l'attacher autour de la taille pour cibler le ventre et le bas du dos, autour du cou ou des épaules et le haut du dos. Non seulement elle vous permet de pouvoir rester actif chez vous mais aussi pourquoi pas de la glisser sous votre manteau et la porter à l'extérieur pour rester bien au chaud.
