Statements

‘Only if combustion systems are constantly developed further and thus become more efficient and lower in emissions can they continue to make their important contribution as a renewable source of space heating in the future. To achieve this, combustion systems must become robust against operating errors. User training should play a central role alongside technical development.’

‘According to the state of the art, domestic wood firing systems with the lowest pollutant emissions are equipped with air control, operating data recording and exhaust gas cleaning such as catalytic converters and dust separators. Firewood consumption can also be reduced by combining it with other renewable energies.’

‘Heat from wood is reliable and sustainable. Only if we use this technology without ideology as part of a sensible overall strategy will we as a society be able to master the major challenges of our time. The stove, regardless of whether it is an industrial fireplace or a handcrafted tiled stove, is part of an innovative heating concept that will continue to provide Germany with a secure supply in the coming years. We must work together to achieve this and also find answers to questions posed by politics and society. The industry must present itself just as innovatively as our products are. We cordially invite you to be part of this movement.’

‘As regenerative and climate-friendly heat sources, wood-burning stoves avoid CO2 emissions and, with the fuels logs, pellets or wood chips, represent sensible alternatives to existing fossil heating systems or as a supplement to an existing heating system. Modern biomass systems are low in pollutants and have an efficiency of over 90%. Boilers with condensing technology can achieve even higher efficiencies. We expect interesting presentations and discussions at the WORLD OF FIREPLACES on the topics of climate protection, emission control and affordable heat energy. The operational and fire safety of heat generators should also not be neglected and will be a topic at the Fireplace HUB. The chimney sweep trade is in favour of a heating market that is open to all technologies and a climate-friendly energy mix that also makes sense from an economic point of view. We hope that the discussion at the WORLD OF FIREPLACES will be as free of ideology as possible and that we will take part in the professional dialogue with manufacturers, associations, politicians and trade visitors on the subject of heating.’

‘We are a traditional company founded in 1887 and produce a wide range of flue pipes and accessories. By combining many years of experience with new knowledge, we have developed outstanding expertise. The World of Fireplaces is the perfect platform to present our high-quality products and expertise to a specialist audience.’

As Buderus, we are system experts who offer sustainable solutions and want to contribute to the success of the heating transition together with our customers. We are looking forward to WOF 2025 as the unique industry trade fair for wood-burning stoves, to many good discussions and to inspiring our customers together.’

wodtke focusses on hybrid system technology. As a pellet pioneer and one of the leading manufacturers of innovative and award-winning pellet stoves, wodtke today offers pioneering solutions for heating and cosy warmth in the home. The ideal combination in a hybrid heating system - a heat pump and a water-bearing wodtke pellet stove for connection to the central heating system. The base load is supplied by the heat pump, while the water-bearing pellet stove provides a variable part - for heating with the renewable and regionally available fuel wood pellets. Heating the future: renewable energies and cosy warmth in the home. We are looking forward to the WORLD OF FIREPLACES 2027 with excitement.

After the second World of Fireplaces event, the trade fair has established itself as the centre of the industry in Europe. Visitors to the exhibitors' stands were provided with a wealth of information on the latest trends, as well as background information on legal regulations, technical solutions and the future of individual fireplaces at the Fireplace Hub. Not forgetting hybrid heat, where wood-burning and pellet stoves present themselves as the ideal complement to heat pumps. We are all excited to see where the journey will take us - we will have another answer to this at the WoF 2027 at the latest.

At the World of Fireplaces 2025, we were able to present our products to even more international specialist dealers. We are convinced that this success story will continue and are therefore looking forward to participating again in 2027.

As a strong voice of the industry - for the future of stove construction.’

The World of Fireplaces is well on its way to becoming the new international centre of our industry.

With the WOF, we combine tradition and innovation and offer a central dialogue platform for the industry and political discourse with the HUB. Personal dialogue is at the heart of everything we do. In this way, we all work together to ensure that our companies and consumers act in a more climate-friendly way. After all, modern fireplaces and innovative secondary measures help to reduce emissions from fossil fuels and further curb the greenhouse effect. We are all looking forward to an exciting time at the trade fair!’
