About Twenga

Bastien Duclaux and Cédric Anès created Twenga in 2006 after they realised that only a tiny fraction of today’s hundreds of thousands of online shops could be found through traditional search engines and directories. Consumers were missing out on great products and great deals and shops were missing out on customers. Twenga solves this problem.

News Facts

  • Twenga, the new-generation search engine enables millions of shoppers throughout the world to find what they want, at the best price, from the online shop of their choice.

Users want stylish fireplaces: real flames and marble

Online searches for fireplaces jump 170% in a month

London – August 31st, 2010. When choosing a fireplace in preparation for winter, Brits want real flames, top quality materials, and are willing to pay more for reduced CO2 or renewable fuels, reveals Twenga (http://www.twenga.co.uk) the new generation shopping search engine.

  • Real flames over electric – The top fuel choices are gas, ethanol and wood, with no demand for electric alternatives, showing that a realistic look is vital.
  • Top quality materials – The most searched for materials are granite, stone and marble, demonstrating a preference for stylish, classic, long-lasting materials.
  • Reduced emissions – The rise of ethanol fires confirms an effort to reduce CO2 emissions. Coal and oil fires are now totally out of fashion.
