This will make outdoor cooking over fire easier and more enjoyable.

We are becoming more adventurous when cooking on a fire pit. The focus is shifting to global dishes. Think of smoking meat or fish. Or wokking on the fire pit. The possibilities are endless. These outdoor cooking trends require versatile equipment. A good fire pit provides stable heat. With it, you can tackle any culinary challenge.
Conviviality and experience are central
Outdoor cooking over fire pits is about togetherness. The crackling fire brings people together. It is the perfect setting for good conversations. The fire pit becomes the centerpiece of the garden.

The latest trends in materials
In 2026, the fire pit will be a true design object. We see a clear trend towards robust materials. Corten steel remains incredibly popular. Its rust-brown color gives a warm, natural look. Black-coated steel is also on the rise. This provides a sleek and modern look. These materials are strong and weather-resistant. You will enjoy them for years.
Compact and portable for adventurers
Not everyone has a large garden. That's why fire pit cooking is also becoming mobile. We see more compact and portable models. These can easily be taken to the park or campsite. This way, you can enjoy the atmosphere of an open fire everywhere. These smaller models are cleverly designed. They are lightweight, yet very stable and safe.
