ALFA / Italy
A family owned business since 1977.
Alfa is a company specialized in wood and gas fired ovens, fireplaces and refractory bricks. In recent years we have concentrated on wood and gas fired ovens for domestic and professional use. Alfa headquarters is based in Anagni, between Roma and Napoli, in the birthplace of pizza. 1.
HeatKeeper® Refractory Brick
The Heat Keeper® brick, produced at the Alfa plant in Italy, absorbs and stores heat much better than the lava stone or ceramic used in other pizza ovens.
The Heat Keeper® refractory brick is crucial for quickly cooking a pizza, making it soft and crispy at the right point without burning it.

DoubleDown Ceramic Superwool® Insulation
The space between the stainless steel walls of an Alfa home oven is filled with DoubleDown Ceramic Superwool® insulation.
This European ceramic fibre offers twice the heat resistance of rock wool used by other pizza oven manufacturers. It also retains heat better and allows pizzas to cook to perfection.
Heat Genius®
Patented Full Effect Full Circulation Flue System®
This particular system optimizes the circulation of hot air inside Alfa ovens.
Rather than being evacuated quickly through the flue, as takes place in other pizza ovens, the hot air circulates in the cooking chamber and is pushed down to further heat the refractory brick and pizza.
In Alfa ovens, the heat is pushed in an “around and down” and then conveyed by a special deflector to the flue to be expelled.
In doing so, the oven always maintains the right temperature so as to optimally cook both the base and the condiments of your pizza.Forninox Technology
Stainless-steel and refractory wood-burning ovens.
Continuous improvement through constant investment in research and innovation has been a pillar of Alfa from day one. Forninox® technology is arguably our jewel in the crown; we patented it ten years ago and since then it has enabled us to manufacture high-octane STAINLESS-steel and refractory wood-fired ovens, combining the advantages of both materials.
Here you can learn about the technology that allowed us to become market leaders. Whether it is commercial pizza ovens or high-performance home ones, whether it is wood-fired, gas-fired or electric, Alfa innovatively mixes steel with refractory materials to deliver top-notch ovens.
