Smith’s, the UK’s market leading supplier of domestic and light commercial fan-assisted hydronic heat emitters is excited to announce their collaboration with MINIB, one of the leading manufacturers of fan convectors in the Czech Republic.
This development is a further demonstration of the Swan Group’s ambitions for the business, since its full acquisition of Smith’s earlier in 2016.
The partnership with MINIB allows Smith’s to broaden its portfolio of fan convectors in different strategic markets to grow both companies’ commercial sales by co-promoting their products in their respective markets.

Smith’s MD, Gary Haynes stated: “This strategic collaboration with MINIB, based in the Czech Rep. enables Smith’s to broaden its portfolio of fan convectors, including decorative wall standing, decorate free standing and trench heating products for the following markets: UK, USA, Ireland, Holland and Sweden.
"MINIB will also market Smith’s manufactured products in its core markets and we anticipate a productive and mutually successful partnership for both businesses.”
Monika Novakova, Chief Executive Officer at MINIB stated: “We have been seeking like-minded European partners and this opportunity to work closely with Smith’s will provide fresh impetus as we develop our brand within the UK, US and Northern European markets.
"The synergies we have found between both businesses and the shared values we both espouse, make this collaboration very exciting.”
MINIB is one of the leading manufacturers of fan convectors in the Czech Republic, making them the ideal European partner for Smith’s. Since 1999, MINIB has invested considerably in the design and development of their products to ensure that they can offer technically and aesthetically mature solutions to their customers. The company’s growth and success to date is echoed by the fact that they currently distribute to thirty countries in Europe, Asia, Australia and America.
