Fireplaces and stoves in Poland in 2024 Witold Hawajski (70)
editor-in-chief of ŚWIAT KOMINKÓW
He was selling fireplace inserts and stoves between 1992 until 2018. At the same time, he was involved in social and journalistic activities, writing for Gazeta Wyborcza, Murator and local media dealing with construction issues. He initiated the foundation of the Polish association of fireplace industry. As a result of cooperation with the IHZ Publishing House in 2002, a project of a generally accessible magazine about fireplaces was born, of which he became the editor-in-chief. In 2003, the first issue of Świat Kominków was published, followed a few years later by the magazine for specialists in the industry, Kominki.Pro and the portal, kominki.org. Since 2006, Świat Kominków has been awarding the FLAME OF THE YEAR award for the best companies, products and most important events in the industry. For some time, the traditional area of interest of Świat Kominków with domesticated fire has expanded to include ecological home heating solutions, mainly those based on wood and pellets. 12
