This premium gas-fired pizza oven combines 100% Made in Italy craftsmanship with exceptional performance, featuring a generous 60×60 cm cooking chamber constructed from professional-grade 304 stainless steel. Designed for passionate home cooks who demand restaurant-quality results, the Margherita delivers temperatures up to 850°F (454°C) whilst maintaining a safe-to-touch exterior thanks to superior 12cm natural rock wool insulation.

Professional Italian Engineering Meets Compact Design

The Fontana Forni Margherita Build-In Gas Oven represents over 75 years of Italian pizza oven expertise, handcrafted by skilled artisans in San Lorenzo in Campo in Italy's Marche region. As a build-in model designed for permanent outdoor installations, this oven offers space-efficient professional performance without dominating your garden or patio. The intelligent engineering ensures rapid heat-up times and exceptional temperature stability, allowing you to cook authentic Neapolitan-style pizzas with beautifully charred crusts and perfectly cooked bases in just 90 seconds.

What sets this oven apart is its dual-chamber design philosophy inherited from Fontana Forni's pioneering work since 1946. Three generations of the Fontana family have refined metalworking techniques to create ovens that maximize heat retention whilst minimizing fuel consumption. The Margherita's construction utilizes premium materials throughout: 2.5mm thick 441 stainless steel for the interior cooking chamber, 304 stainless steel for the exterior surfaces, and food-safe refractory chamotte for the cooking floor. Every component is electro-galvanized and finished with high-temperature powder coating for exceptional durability against British weather conditions.

Premium Materials and Superior Construction

304-Grade Stainless Steel Excellence: The Margherita's entire structure is manufactured from professional-grade 304 stainless steel, renowned for its corrosion resistance and longevity. This marine-quality material ensures your investment withstands years of outdoor use, resisting rust and maintaining its stunning appearance through countless cooking sessions.

12cm Natural Rock Wool Insulation: Exceptional thermal performance comes from 12 centimeters of high-performance natural rock wool insulation surrounding the entire cooking chamber. This advanced insulation system serves dual purposes: maintaining consistent internal temperatures for perfect cooking results whilst keeping external surfaces safe to touch during operation. The efficient heat retention also reduces gas consumption, making the Margherita economical to operate.

Refractory Chamotte Cooking Floor: The cooking surface features premium refractory chamotte stone, specifically certified for food use. This material absorbs and radiates heat evenly, creating the ideal environment for authentic Neapolitan pizza with its characteristic leopard-spotted crust. The porous nature of chamotte also absorbs excess moisture, ensuring crispy bases every time.

Weather-Resistant Finish: External surfaces are electro-galvanized before receiving high-temperature powder coating, providing maximum resistance to heat stress and harsh weather conditions. This multi-layer protection ensures your oven maintains its pristine appearance whether facing summer sun, autumn rain, or winter frost.

Authentic Neapolitan Pizza at 850°F

For true Neapolitan pizza enthusiasts, temperature precision is paramount. The Fontana Forni Margherita excels at maintaining the critical 800-850°F (427-454°C) temperature range required for authentic Neapolitan-style pizza. At these temperatures, pizzas cook in just 60-90 seconds, achieving the perfect balance of charred, blistered crust and tender, airy interior without burning the base.

The generous 60×60 cm cooking chamber accommodates multiple cooking configurations: two 10-inch pizzas simultaneously, one large 12-inch pizza with room to maneuver, or various bread and roasting projects. The domed interior design, curved both front-to-back and side-to-side, ensures uniform heat distribution without hot spots, delivering consistent results regardless of where food is positioned within the chamber.

The included adjustable smoke exit valve on the 304 stainless steel flue pipe provides precise temperature control. This professional feature allows you to fine-tune cooking conditions for different dishes, maintaining optimal heat when the oven door is closed and enabling smoke management for bread baking or roasting applications.

Versatility Beyond Pizza

Whilst engineered specifically for pizza perfection, the Margherita Build-In excels across diverse cooking applications:

Artisan Bread Baking: The retained heat and steam management capabilities create ideal conditions for crusty sourdough, focaccia, and traditional Italian breads. The spacious chamber accommodates multiple loaves simultaneously.

Roasting Excellence: Achieve restaurant-quality roasted meats, from succulent lamb shoulders to crispy-skinned chicken, vegetables, and even whole fish. The intense radiant heat creates exceptional caramelization and flavor development.

Grilling and Searing: High-temperature grilling produces steakhouse-quality sear marks on steaks, chops, and vegetables, whilst the retained heat provides gentle finishing.

Baked Desserts: From fruit tarts to crumbles, the Margherita's even heat distribution produces professional pastry results with golden, flaky crusts.

The Fontana Forni Heritage: Three Generations of Excellence

When you invest in a Fontana Forni oven, you're acquiring more than equipment—you're joining a 75-year Italian heritage of metalworking excellence. Founded in 1946 by Giuseppe Fontana in San Lorenzo in Campo, the company began as a blacksmith's workshop serving Marche region farmers. By 1978, the Fontana brothers revolutionized outdoor cooking by creating the world's first metal pizza oven with indirect combustion technology.

Today, three generations of the Fontana family continue this legacy, overseeing every stage of production in their state-of-the-art facilities. Advanced laser cutting and metal bending technology combine with traditional artisan craftsmanship to produce ovens that are genuinely 100% Made in Italy. This isn't merely assembly of imported components—every element, from initial metal cutting to final quality inspection, occurs in the Fontana workshops under family supervision.

The Margherita embodies this commitment to excellence. Unlike mass-produced ovens manufactured overseas using cost-cutting measures, every Fontana Forni oven reflects decades of refinement, premium materials, and skilled craftsmanship. This dedication to quality has earned Fontana Forni worldwide recognition from professional chefs, restaurants, and discerning home cooks who refuse to compromise on performance.
