The Stackable Electric Oven

Many of the world’s top chefs and pizzaiolo are converting to commercial electric ovens. That’s because there’s a growing market need for electric high-production baking, space and energy efficiency, and better quality through precise temperature control.  In addition, gas fuel and wood-fired are not allowed in all spaces. Recently pizza greats such as John Arena, Chef Leo Spizzirri, and many others made the conversion to using electric ovens. For this reason, and many other reasons, Marra Forni has developed a new modular “ELST” electric deck oven series featuring single-deck through 4 vertically stacked deck ovens.  Our Corporate Chef and Culinary Director, Sedrick Crawley, loves the bandwidth of temperature and control that they provide.

Stackable in a clients’ restaurant

The ELST Series electric stackable ovens allow Chefs and restauranteurs to vertically optimize precious space to offset sky-rocketing square footage costs in the kitchen.  Simple to operate and maintain, these ovens also impact excessive operating and labor costs, we have also responded to the current state of the industry with flexible purchasing plans that enable restaurants to purchase one or two of the ovens at a time and add oven decks as their demand increases and business grows. With the new ELST Stackable Electric Ovens, Marra Forni sets the pace for three primary industry trends with an oven that offers high volume vertically integrated food production, a full range of controllable and sustainable temperatures ranging from 250 degrees F to 950 degrees F, and an energy-efficient solution that complies with the growing demand for green energy and sustainability,” says CEO and Co-founder Francesco Marra.

The Electric Stackable Commercial Oven

The development of electric cooking appliances for commercial kitchens is currently in high demand as Green Energy legislation continues to expand across the U.S. By 2030, all new commercial kitchens in the state of California will no longer be allowed to use gas-fired equipment, which is currently the fuel of choice by many foodservice operations.  We are committed to the development of new electrical appliances to meet this change in specification and eventual demand. Fortunately for restaurateurs, electric utility costs are projected to be offset by energy rebate programs as well as State and Federal tax incentive programs.
