Planika Fires create real fire without any smoke. Designed by distinguished designers they become focal points of exclusive interiors.

The design process of Planika Fires takes place in the Planika Studio. Success lies in designing a new form that addresses contemporary lifestyle. Design together with the technical knowledge and experience are the basis for every model. By always paying close attention to every detail while shaping the form and carefully selecting the highest quality materials, we have come up with a product that is in accordance with our sustainable agenda.
We are open-minded and draw inspiration from around the world while working on the design projects. The busy world of today is full of creative impulses that foster young talents like the designer Maciej Klus, to express themselves through design. We are cautious not to limit ourselves and we emphasise the role of development. Thus, it is important for us to remain open to fresh ideas as well as different perspectives, recognising the importance of individuality and personal style. Aware of the significance of diversity a new collection was created together with renowned designer Christophe Pillet.

The mission of Planika is to bring the primeval fire from before thousands of years to contemporary interiors.

Throughout thousands of years people have sat around the fire, facing one another and reaching out their hands in order to warm them up. The primeval need for contact with fire lingers on in the soul of every man. Looking at dancing flames brings people together and the fire is associated with warmth and safety.  

Planika is an innovative technology company set up as an Australian-European joint venture with its products present in 30 countries and two international branch offices in London (UK) and New Jersey (USA).  

It started with a simple bonfire in the heart of the Australian continent, under the red Ayers Rock.
Two tourists, Alfred Weilandt and Jerry Dabrowski were sitting by the fire, long into the night, listening to Aboriginal tales about a mythical Epoch of Dreams. The atmosphere created by the flames inspired the two to find an easy way to have the same fire in contemporary interiors.
Their intention was to overcome the existing difficulties of soot, ash and the need for a chimney, all which are associated with fire in an interior space. Contemporary lifestyle demands products that through design have a character of their own but are safe and easy to use; this sparked the beginning of Planika by the founders Alfred Weilandt and Jerry Dabrowski. After spending months on designing and testing, the result was a product which combines beauty of form and comfort of use for the atavistic need to commune with fire.

This is how the idea of Planika Fires was born.
