IGN-Status

IGN-Status: a guarantee of perfect cooking.

304 STAINLESS STEEL. The stainless steel used in Fontana barbecues is exclusively 304, the same as professional kitchens — the best for resistance, and it does not rust over time, even when exposed to the elements. Built-in thermometer for temperature control.

PRECISE WELDS. The Fontana tradition speaks through precise welds that provide unprecedented resistance and rigidity. Masterful welding of the joints protects against corrosion, preventing exposed parts from rusting over time. Welding is considered superior to screws and rivets, which can loosen with time.

FIREBOX. The firebox of Fontana barbecues is entirely built in stainless steel. The cooking grills, sturdy and robust, in stainless steel, encourage even cooking. Every barbecue is equipped with a full-length warming rack to keep cooked food hot while the rest finishes cooking. The cast stainless-steel burners are the beating heart of Fontana barbecues and guarantee an even distribution of heat across the entire cooking surface. The rear infrared burner, with a radiant heat diffusion system, lets you reach higher temperatures faster, ideal also for slow cooking like spit-roast, churrasco or kebab. The integrated halogen lighting ensures perfect visibility throughout every phase of cooking.

INDIVIDUAL PIEZO IGNITION AND CONTROL KNOBS. Fontana barbecues feature a reliable piezo ignition system thanks to brass control valves, plus extremely durable, corrosion-resistant galvanised steel control dials.

DOUBLE-WALLED LID. Built entirely in galvanised steel painted at high temperatures — both the structure and the burn-proof handle — the lid features a double-body construction enabling maximum heat retention and reaching temperatures above 350°.

The module structure is in powder-coated SteelTech steel (Qualicoat), which protects it from the elements with a 20-year corrosion warranty, while the soft-close door preserves the precision of the action over time. The porcelain stoneware worktop resists scratches, high temperatures and the weather.
