ALTO 3D: AT THE HEART OF COEO ENGINEERING AND DESIGN
Discover ALTO from a new angle through our 3D exploration. Much more than just a premium gas barbecue, ALTO is the result of extensive research, design, and development work carried out by the COEO teams to create a cooking tool capable of meeting the highest demands in terms of performance, durability, and design.

Through this 3D presentation, explore every detail of its design, understand the technical choices that guided its development, and discover how product engineering, architectural design, and user experience come together within a single piece of equipment.
A FRENCH DESIGN DEVELOPED IN THE SOUTH OF FRANCE
Like all COEO products, ALTO is imagined, designed, and developed from our offices located in the South of France, at the foot of Pic Saint-Loup.
Each project begins with a phase of in-depth reflection during which our teams analyse the uses, technical constraints, actual usage conditions, expected performance, as well as the sustainability requirements specific to the world of high-end outdoor cooking.
Even before the production of the first prototype, hundreds of hours are dedicated to the development of shapes, the analysis of interactions between components, ergonomic optimisation, and the search for a perfect balance between aesthetics, functionality, and cooking performance.
DISCOVER EVERY DETAIL OF ALTO'S DESIGN
3D visualisation allows for the observation of elements often invisible during a traditional presentation.
Every curve, every volume, every assembly, and every proportion has been designed to meet a specific objective. Behind each visible element lies a technical intention aimed at improving usability, mechanical strength, heat circulation, or even the overall longevity of the product.
At COEO, design is never a mere aesthetic exercise. Every detail is designed to serve a concrete function and contribute to the overall quality of the user experience.
WHEN INDUSTRIAL DESIGN MEETS PERFORMANCE
The development of ALTO is based on an approach inspired by the best practices of contemporary industrial design.
The goal was not simply to create an elegant gas barbecue, but to develop a true cooking tool capable of enhancing the daily lives of its users while maintaining an immediately recognisable visual identity.
Its architecture with taut lines, balanced proportions, and a lid with a strong graphic identity reflects a desire to create equipment that can integrate as naturally into high-end outdoor kitchens as into the most ambitious architectural projects.
This coherence between form and function is one of the foundations of the COEO design philosophy.
PRECISION ENGINEERING SERVING COOKING
The performance of a premium gas barbecue does not solely rely on its power.
It primarily depends on the quality of its design, its ability to effectively manage heat flow, and the precision with which each component has been developed.
ALTO benefits from in-depth engineering work that optimises thermal circulation, temperature stability, and cooking comfort.
This approach helps to provide:
- A rapid temperature rise.
- Excellent cooking uniformity.
- Remarkable thermal stability.
- Precise heat control.
- Comfortable everyday use.
- Optimised energy efficiency.
Every design decision directly contributes to achieving consistent and reproducible performance.
PREMIUM STAINLESS STEEL CONSTRUCTION
The choice of materials is one of the most important steps in developing a product intended to sustainably evolve outdoors.
For ALTO, the choice of premium stainless steel was a natural one in order to offer excellent resistance to corrosion, climatic constraints, temperature variations, and wear related to intensive use.
The quality of the assemblies, the selected thicknesses, and the attention to manufacturing details reflect the desire to create a barbecue capable of sustainably maintaining its performance and aesthetics.
This requirement directly contributes to making ALTO an investment designed to support its users for many years.
FROM IDEA TO FINISHED PRODUCT: THE COEO METHOD
At COEO, we design our own products.
Our work involves imagining, developing, testing, and perfecting each piece of equipment before it goes into production.
The designs, 3D models, technical plans, functional specifications, and specifications are developed by our teams before being entrusted to the most competent industrial partners for each specialty.
This approach allows us to maintain complete control over product development while selecting the best manufacturing expertise for each component.
The goal is simple: to create products capable of offering a level of quality, finish, and performance that meets the highest market standards.
MORE THAN A GAS BARBECUE, A PIECE OF OUTDOOR ARCHITECTURE
ALTO has been developed as a central element of the outdoor space.
Its bold design, architectural lines and unique visual identity allow it to integrate naturally into contemporary outdoor kitchens, high-end terraces, architect-designed villas and the most demanding landscaping projects.
This desire to create a product that is as beautiful to look at as it is pleasant to use is one of the signatures of the design work carried out by the COEO teams.
