 "We believe in the eternal life of traditional heating systems.
We believe in the creative power of the human mind, by which we can make aesthetic values that outlive us. Such aesthetic values in which we meet the requirements of the economy and the environment of our time.
We have been designing, building, reconstructing and repairing tiled stoves and fireplaces for 40 years now. I feel proud when I look at my sons, who, maintaining the family tradition, endeavour to enhance the reputation of our company." Gyula Herczku, Master Craftsman
