HEIMA is an independent shop in York specialising in useful things for the home, garden and outdoors.
Since 2016 we've been carefully building a collection of practical, durable products that make everyday life a little easier. From brushes and watering cans to kitchen utensils, hardware and refill products, everything we stock is chosen because we think it's genuinely useful.
Owner Maff Punton is a third-generation hardware store owner who grew up in and around the family business. If you visit the shop, there's a good chance you'll find him helping customers solve problems, track down elusive lightbulbs or discussing the finer points of tea-making.
We believe homes are better filled with things that work well, last a long time and earn their place through regular use. That's why our focus has always been on useful products, fair prices and good old-fashioned customer service.
For home & personal products...
Since we opened in 2016 we've been supplying refill products to an ever-growing customer base. Using products from SESI and Miniml, all the refill products are on a closed-loop system - meaning that the empty tanks are collected and washed out before refilling by the supplier.
We have a quite frankly ridiculous collection of teapots and coffee pots.
We stock around 100 Opinel knives and accessories which customers are always delighted by! We have some available online but an even bigger selection in the shop!
Heima is a stockist for Earthborn's range of super-eco-friendly, super-breathable paints for walls and woodwork.
We keep quality organic flower, herb and veg seeds from Tamar Organics in Cornwall.
Quality LED light bulbs / lamps from respected manufacturer Crompton Lamps.
