Made from a secret mix of Spanish white and red clays, each clay oven we manufacture has a unique hand-made fire clay dome. This provides the refractory quality known since ancient times which was first documented as early as 1429.
It’s this fire clay that makes any Fuego oven stand apart from every other commercial pizza oven, as they are able to reach optimal cooking temperature in only 30 minutes. They can also remain hot for longer, using less fuel.
The dome of every Fuego outdoor pizza oven is shaped entirely by hand in the traditional way.
It takes a team of artisan Spanish craftsmen around 45 days to create just one Fuego oven dome. During its manufacture, the clay oven dome is built, entirely by hand, in up to 12 individual steps. The clay oven domes are then left to dry for over a month before being baked in a kiln at 1200℃ for 36 hours.
This gives each commercial pizza oven its incredible refractory properties and also prevents the shell from cracking during the cooking process. This is why each Fuego clay oven is inherently totally heatproof.
Every other outside pizza oven can take over 1 hour to reach cooking temperature. A Fuego wood fired clay oven can be ready in just 30 minutes.
If you want an economical home pizza oven or a super-efficient commercial pizza oven, Fuego ovens need very little wood to light up, in fact, just 6 to 8 pieces of kindling and 2 to 3 medium size logs of hardwood will be enough to get the clay oven fire roaring.
The main purpose of the fire is to create a live flame that heats the outdoor pizza oven dome. Our clay oven domes can reach up to 200℃ in just half an hour – that’s half the time of any other outdoor pizza oven.

A Fuego outdoor wood burning pizza oven is significantly more entertaining and fuel-efficient than any other pizza oven.
The precise regulation of airflow and insulated clay means you can enjoy fuel savings of up to 60%.
Thanks to the incredible refractory qualities of our fire clay a Fuego wood fired pizza oven uses less wood to reach cooking temperature in less time than other ovens, they also return to temperature very quickly between uses by adding a surprisingly small amount of wood.
You control the temperature of your clay oven by adjusting the air vent on the top or by opening the cast iron door.
The high-quality temperature gauge provides precise readings up to 500℃. Watch as the thermometer moves to the desired temperature as you make adjustments. Open the vent and door of the home pizza oven to allow more oxygen to reach the fire and increase your temperature. Simply close the vent and door to reduce the airflow and stabilise the temperature of your Fuego clay oven.
You don’t simply order a Fuego clay oven, you design it.
You specify not only the size of your outdoor pizza oven you get to dictate precisely how it looks.
You can choose a white, terracotta or concrete grey render, brick or rustic stone or even one three colourful mosaics. Whether it’s a home pizza oven or commercial pizza oven, whichever finish you choose, it will really stand out on your patio or outdoor area.
Fuego, who are domestic and commercial wood fired pizza oven distributors in the UK, possess the certification to enable wood to be burnt in their ovens throughout the UK and have been classified as “exempt” for use in smoke control areas when burning a non-authorised fuel or fuels.
“This is our very first wood fired oven and we are extremely pleased with the quality, the stone cladding is lovely. We cured the oven for eight hours and then started with home made pizzas. The Fuego team have been in contact a few times to make sure everything is OK and to offer advise. This has been very much appreciated.”

All our wood-fired ovens are manufactured following artisan methods and techniques that have been passed through generations.
Each Fuego Wood-fired Oven is a unique piece of artisan work, which has been hand built to order, differing from any other and carrying its own characteristics, marks, details and imperfections based on the use of natural materials during its fabrication. These characteristics may vary from the colour tone, to the size, to the grout marks and cracks that may appear on the oven.
We only work with materials of the highest quality, which means that our ovens’ artisan look needs to be accepted as part of their natural appearance.
A visit to our showroom is without doubt the best way to get under the skin of what Fuego Ovens is all about. Only when you see and touch a Fuego oven do you get a sense of the quality and craftmanship behind every oven. Book an appointment in advance, so we can ensure one of our team members is on hand to answer all your questions.
“Having moved house, we sadly had to leave our previous Fuego wood fired oven behind, so it was high on my priority list to get another oven on order and installed ASAP, we purchased the Brick 80, and it has not disappointed, the look and quality is second to none, and the performance is outstanding, our new construction is now the centrepiece of our outdoor entertaining area.”
