Insulated refractory design
The thermal system stores heat in the refractory inner shell while successive insulating layers reduce heat loss, supporting high-temperature cooking and a long retained-heat curve.
Apollo wood-fired cooking collection · August 2026
Serious refractory wood-fired ovens for pizza, bread, roasting and retained-heat cooking.
Apollo’s wood-fired oven collection runs from the compact 80 cm Royal platform through to high-capacity 100 cm ovens and traditional heavy refractory models. All seven core models are wood-fired, weather-resistant and built around insulated thermal construction with integrated chimney systems.

Seasoned firewoodUse dry hardwood; the handbook recommends moisture below 20%. Avoid treated or contaminated timber and chemical accelerants.
09Pizza benchmark
Approx. 370–420°C hearthOnce fully saturated, a classic high-heat pizza may cook in roughly 60–90 seconds.
Current pricing is available on request. New Zealand supply is plus applicable GST and delivery unless quoted otherwise; international projects are POA. Local fire, building, smoke, ventilation, support and clearance requirements must be checked for the project location.
Project fit
The oven is only part of the outdoor-kitchen project.
Use the heat curve
Cook pizza and flatbreads at the hottest phase, then use retained heat for roasting, vegetables, bread, casseroles, slow cooking and gentle finishing.
Support + lifting
These are substantial ovens, not benchtop appliances. Final support, load path, access route and mechanical lifting method should be planned before delivery.
Covered installations
Under a pergola, pavilion, veranda or roof, flue routing, clearances, heat and ventilation need project-specific assessment rather than copying an open-air installation.
Operating kit
An infrared thermometer, placement peel, turning peel, ember rake, metal brush, heat-resistant gloves, ash shovel/metal bucket and cool-use weather cover form the recommended working kit.
Care + weather
Let ash cool fully, avoid water inside the refractory chamber, inspect flue/exterior condition and bring a damp or long-dormant oven back to temperature gradually.
Outdoor-kitchen integration
The fixed models can be planned into permanent benches and landscape settings; Royal Mobile provides a controlled repositionable pathway on suitable hard surfaces.
Global project supply
International oven projects are POA by destination, freight, handling and configuration. Final dimensions and weights should be reconfirmed before structural or transport planning is locked.
Companion charcoal cooking
Apollo’s broader outdoor cooking range also includes masonry/firebrick charcoal grill options for projects combining enclosed refractory baking with open-grill cooking.
