Bonk & Co

Papa, aka Billy Bonk, founded Bonk & Co in 1976 with the simple aim of selling a more effective and efficient way of burning wood. Increasingly frustrated with his hugely inefficient open fire lead him down the path to where we now find ourselves today, improving the way we heat our homes.

At the start, he kept it simple, selling only a limited number of good value, well-made stoves that would be fit for purpose, and he made every effort to offer a great personal customer service.
