- ALTO: 304 STAINLESS STEEL GAS BARBECUE





ALTO : LE BARBECUE GAZ PREMIUM POUR CUISINE EXTÉRIEURE
ALTO est un barbecue gaz haut de gamme en acier inoxydable 304 conçu pour offrir les performances d'une véritable cuisine professionnelle en extérieur. Équipé de trois brûleurs céramiques infrarouges déportés développant une puissance totale de 14,6 kW, il garantit une montée en température rapide, une chaleur homogène et une maîtrise parfaite de la cuisson, tout en limitant l'encrassement grâce à des brûleurs protégés des écoulements de graisse.
6 ZONES DE CUISSON POUR UNE POLYVALENCE UNIQUE
Avec sa surface de cuisson de 5 073 cm² (89 x 57 cm), ALTO permet de cuisiner simultanément plusieurs préparations grâce à ses six zones de cuisson indépendantes comprenant deux planchas inox 304, deux grilles de cuisson inox 304 et deux réchauds compatibles avec les bacs gastronomes GN. Cette configuration transforme le barbecue en véritable cuisine extérieure capable de saisir, griller, cuire à la plancha, maintenir au chaud et servir plusieurs recettes en même temps.
PUISSANCE ET PRÉCISION PROFESSIONNELLES
La puissance est répartie entre un brûleur principal de 6,6 kW et deux brûleurs indépendants de 4 kW, permettant de créer plusieurs zones thermiques pour adapter précisément la cuisson des viandes, poissons, légumes et accompagnements. Les brûleurs céramiques infrarouges offrent une saisie parfaite, une excellente stabilité thermique et des aliments plus juteux tout en optimisant la consommation de gaz.
DEUX VERSIONS POUR TOUS LES PROJETS
ALTO SOLO est conçu pour être posé ou encastré dans une cuisine extérieure sur mesure. ALTO UNIT dispose d'un meuble intégré avec rangements, espace bouteille de gaz et roulettes discrètes, offrant une station de cuisson complète et autonome. Les deux versions bénéficient des mêmes performances professionnelles et de la même conception premium en inox 304.

The name ALTO refers to the idea of elevation: it evokes height, refinement, and a level of ambition that goes beyond ordinary cooking.
In Italian, alto means “high,” a direct image of ambition, higher standards, and precision.
In music, alto refers to a medium‑high, warm, and expressive register — a balanced tone that perfectly symbolizes the mastery and harmony the product embodies.
The name refers to:
- harmony,
- warmth,
- balance,
- purity of form and clarity of intention.
Because it expresses its three major strengths:
Minimalist, architectural, and decidedly modern.
Fast heating, precise control, and total reliability.
Designed to bring people together, to share, and to create memorable culinary moments.
- integrated storage doors,
- hidden wheels,
- double‑wall construction,
- premium Blum soft‑close hinges.
- a worktop,
- a custom outdoor kitchen,
- a professional indoor installation (with the lid removed).
ALTO offers six simultaneous cooking zones:
- 2 stainless steel planchas
- 2 cooking grates
- 2 warming zones
-
- Rotisserie option
- 3 independent main burners
- 1 high‑performance sear burner for intense marking and searing
They ensure fast, even heating and precise temperature control.
Ceramic burners outperform stainless-steel burners for several reasons:
- Higher temperatures (up to 800–900°C)
- Perfect searing of meats (steakhouse effect)
- Ultra‑even heat with no hot spots
- Instant reactivity: heats up in seconds
- Less energy loss: ceramic radiates heat instead of only heating the air
Cast stainless steel is durable, but it cannot match the thermal performance of a ceramic burner.
Yes.
Ceramic retains and radiates heat as infrared energy, which allows:
- faster heating
- better heat retention
- lower fuel consumption for the same cooking power
At equivalent performance, a ceramic burner is more economical than a traditional metal burner.
Yes: they deliver a higher real heat output.
A traditional burner heats the air, whereas a ceramic burner heats the food directly through infrared radiation, resulting in:
- more intense searing
- better juice retention
- faster, more controlled cooking
Yes, they are versatile:
- High‑temperature searing for steaks, chops, and burgers
- Indirect cooking with the lid closed
- Low and slow cooking, as they maintain stable heat
- Vegetables, fish, and delicate grills: the radiation is evenly distributed
Temperature control remains very precise.
Yes.
Ceramic:
- does not rust
- does not deform
- has exceptional heat resistance
- is not affected by corrosion or the acidity of fats
When properly maintained, a ceramic burner can last far longer than most stainless‑steel burners.
No, it’s actually the opposite.
Most of the time:
- a simple burn‑off (heating to incinerate residues) is enough
- no aggressive brushing is needed
- no risk of rust
Maintenance is minimal.
Because it is the most:
- high‑performing
- stable
- durable
- energy‑efficient
It is also the technology that delivers the best culinary results, especially for those who appreciate authentic grilling and professional‑level searing.
Continuous ignition is the most reliable and the most comfortable to use.
It is the preferred choice on premium appliances.
Piezoelectric ignition remains a good solution for those who want a simple system with no battery.
A PREMIUM GAS BARBECUE DESIGNED FOR INDIVIDUALS AND PROFESSIONALS
ALTO is a premium gas barbecue of professional quality designed to offer an exceptional level of performance both in outdoor cooking and in the most demanding professional environments. Its 304 stainless steel design, its remote infrared ceramic burners, and its 6 cooking zones make it a true culinary production tool capable of meeting the needs of chefs, restaurateurs, caterers, hotels, and food enthusiasts.
Developed according to professional standards, ALTO has undergone specific testing and validation allowing its use both outdoors and in certain configurations of indoor professional kitchens, with or without a lid depending on the installation conditions and applicable regulatory requirements. This unique versatility allows it to transition seamlessly from a private terrace to a dining area, show-cooking, or culinary demonstration space without compromising cooking performance.
A REMOVABLE LID FOR 360° USE
One of the distinctive features of the ALTO gas barbecue lies in its fully removable lid. In just a few seconds, it can be removed to completely free up the cooking space and transform the barbecue into a true open cooking station accessible from 360°. This configuration facilitates handling, enhances interaction with guests, and allows chefs to work freely around the cooking area.
With the lid installed, ALTO excels in indirect cooking, roasting, rapid temperature rises, and maintaining an even heat. Once the lid is removed, it becomes an ideal tool for show cooking, culinary demonstrations, open kitchens, restaurants, and event spaces where visibility and accessibility are essential.
A HYBRID SOLUTION FOR ALL KITCHENS
ALTO has been designed to adapt to multiple uses. It naturally finds its place in high-end outdoor kitchens, restaurants, hotels, reception areas, professional kitchens, culinary demonstrations, and live cooking concepts where power, reliability, and versatility are essential.
Thanks to its open or closed configuration, its large cooking surface of 5,073 cm², and its high-performance infrared ceramic burners, ALTO offers both professionals and individuals the freedom to cook with the same tools and level of demand as in catering.
