We review the construction and present the basic properties of a new class of integrable theories. These interpolate between exact CFT WZW or gauged WZW models and the non-Abelian T-duals of Principal chiral models for group or coset spaces. Then we show how these constructions can be given an embedding as full string backgrounds whose target spaces satisfy the type-II supergravity equations.
