Campingaz builds on its presence in the barbecue and garden market at SOLEX 2017 as it unveils a new addition to its highly-acclaimed ‘Master Series’ barbecue collection. Pictured on the first day of the show is Andy Marshall, UK Marketing Manager...

Aiming to extend its product assortment in a bid to target the more premium end of the market, for 2018 Campingaz will introduce a stylish, all-black version of its advanced Master Series, the Master Series Black.  

Designed at the company’s headquarters in France and available in 3 and 4 burner versions, the new Master Series LXS Black and Master Series LS Black combine all of the popular technologies featured in the original model with a striking and durable enamelled black coating

 

Developed for serious barbecue enthusiasts that demand the same functionality and versatility outdoors as they do inside, the new Master Series LXS Black has designed to offer ultimate cooking performance. 



The barbecue has a high-quality, double-walled stainless-steel lid which ensures optimum heat retention for effective oven-style cooking in your garden. A large, integrated thermometer in the lid makes it easy to keep a watchful eye on the temperature, and each of the burners can be individually adjusted for maximum control. Lighting the barbecue is effortless thanks to Campingaz’ patented InstaStart® ignition and integrated LEDs indicate the burners operating state by casting a soft blue glow.

 

For unrivalled cooking performance, the Master Series LXS features a premium, enamelled cast iron cooking surface that offers outstanding heat retention. The barbecue’s powerful stainless tube burners feature an impressive 5-year warranty and the barbecue also benefits from EvenTemp® technology which enables over 90% of the grilling surface to reach 250oC. Large, enamelled warming racks deliver extra space to prepare a variety of food and the Master Series LXS’s stylish trolley stores gas cylinders and other utensils out of sight behind double-walled stainless steel doors.

 

Plates, utensils and condiments can be placed close to hand on the Master Series LXS ultra-strong side tables which can accommodate weights of up to 50kg. The righthand side table also features an additional burner for preparing sauces and side-dishes.

 

For outstanding convenience once you’ve finished cooking, the improved InstaClean® system (above) makes it easier to pre-clean the cooking grids before dismantling the entire cooking box and placing it into the dishwasher. Unlike manual cleaning which can struggle to remove built on grease, placing the sections in the dishwasher helps to ensure the entire barbecue remains clean and hygienic.

 

As well as showcasing its latest range at SOLEX, Campingaz will also use the show as an opportunity to introduce new and existing retailers to the brand’s new National Account Manager, Tara Truman. Responsible for growing the company’s barbecue category within the garden centre market, Tara brings with her over 20 years of experience and is well known in the industry following stints as a Leisure Buyer at Wyevale and a Sales Manager at Outback and Sinclair’s.
