Our Story
Our journey began over 15 years ago in Europe, where we discovered the magic of wood-fired cooking. This passion led us to Christchurch, where we settled and have been crafting exceptional pizza ovens ever since, unlike any seen here before.
Our Mission
We believe that pizza should be more than just a meal; it's an experience. That's why we are committed to providing Kiwi families with the highest quality wood-fired pizza ovens that allow them to create unforgettable moments around the table.
Our Philosophy
At Kiwi Pizza Oven, we believe in quality, craftsmanship, and customization. We handcraft each oven using the finest materials and traditional techniques, ensuring that your oven is not only a culinary masterpiece but also a beautiful addition to your backyard.

How it started

Pawel is a perfectionist at heart, and before embarking on the journey to create the ultimate pizza oven, he immersed himself in extensive research. He needed to know the best materials, how to build a pizza oven to last, and how to trap heat for an even cooking experience and a long thermal retention period to allow for versatile use. For years, he has collaborated with many European high-temperature technology specialists and producers who shared their trade knowledge and secrets, allowing him to build the best wood-fired pizza oven on the market, made to last and to provide superior results.

What We Are Proud of - Craftsmanship, Efficiency, and Durability

100 Hours of Craftsmanship
Each of our pizza ovens represents 100 hours of meticulous work. This dedication ensures that every component is finely crafted, combining traditional techniques with advanced technology to deliver outstanding performance and durability.
Efficiency with Just 10 Pieces of Logs
Efficiency is at the heart of our oven design. Through extensive trials and optimizations, we achieved a remarkable outcome: our ovens reach perfect baking temperatures with just 10 pieces of wood, making them both economical and eco-friendly.
Unique 10-Layer Wall System
To withstand the intense heat inside and the unpredictable New Zealand weather, we developed a unique 10-layer wall system. Each layer has a specific function, ensuring our ovens are durable and perform exceptionally well for years to come.
