Multi-deck oven
MATADOR
MATADOR® deck ovens meet this clearly defined requirement: Extremely uniform baking results repeatable at any time – and of course over a period of many decades. Eventually there is no doubt about what these deck ovens actually are – TRUE MULTITALENTS in every sense of the word.
Best baking quality –
day-in, day-out
Admittedly, man does not live of bread alone. But without bread nutrition for us is hard to imagine. Today, not only the creative combination of tradition and innovation results in new and popular baking products. At the same time, the steady advance of globalization ensures an exciting and boundless exchange of recipes for success.
Consumers enjoy quality, variety and freshness. More than ever before. Very seldom it is pure hunger but rather spontaneous enjoyment that makes the decision at the counter for or against product success. You as a baker make a significant contribution to this development. Because you are trusted and offer reliability. By treasuring you own recipes and by your openness towards new products. Meeting HIGHEST DEMANDS every day is indispensible for both.
With the deck ovens of the MATADOR series, you will be perfectly equipped for decades. Our MATADOR® deck oven is a guarantee of quality and a legend. Bakers all over the world trust this oven technology.

Special details about perfect technology
That you can only find with this unique MATADOR series.
The WP BAKERYGROUP is a full-range provider and therefore also supplies the entire periphery around the deck oven. An unbeatable pro. But in addition to that, which specific product benefits make the MATADOR® the first choice and contribute to a reduced energy consumption of up to 30 % compared to similar ovens? An excellent vapor guide, ZYKLOTHERM® the proven heating system, the special baking stones and intelligent WP NAVIGO 3 control system of the MATADOR® are important for low power consumption and highest baking quality.
Excellent vapor guide with ideal steam!
Batch-on-batch baking? This goes without saying with the MATADOR®. Its innovative vapor piping system with vapor distri- bution system, positive-pressure system and relief flaps on both sides ensures rich steam and even distribution. In concrete terms: a relative humidity of 75 % is achieved in less than one minute. Ideal for excellent shine, juicy crump and crunchy crust.
Top temperature consistency thanks to WP ENERGY BLOCK. Reduction of surface losses. This is where the fundamental key to economic baking lies. The highly effective three-sided insulation makes a significant contribution to it. Its 30 cm strong high-tech thermal layer ensures reduced surface loss by almost 11 %.
Its energy-saving principle: The heating gases enter at the front, in the most sensitive area of the oven. From there they take the shortest route through the heating channels. The result of this heat transfer is a uniform baking process, perfect browning, crisp crusts and full flavor development – even with batch-on-batch baking, of course.
MATADOR STONE: The stone – All around lining for perfect baking quality!
The functional principle of the MATADOR® allows for baking comparable to a wood-fired oven by means of radiant heat and dropping baking temperature curve. Due to the comparatively slightly increased temperature at the beginning, the radiant heat suffices for the entire baking process. The products form a greater volume yet maintain a tender flaky crust and long-lasting freshness.
Increased baking quality thanks to selective optimisation: Low energy costs are a very important factor in order to operate economically successful. However: the main focus is clearly on the baking quality to be achieved. It is the combination of traditional baking and innovative technology that guarantees bread of extraordinary quality and exquisite taste to you as the baker. On the basis of this insight we have developed the SSC principle: Stone + System + Control.
WP NAVIGO 3 oven control –
Think tank with explicit cost saving function!
Traditional baking in the MATADOR® can be continuously perfected using the latest control technology. This means in practice: our WP NAVIGO 3 control system in the current MATADOR® Generation provides optimum conditions for baking results beyond comparison. In particular in combination with the previously described ZYKLOTHERM® technology as well as the highly effective all around stone lining.

What makes the MATATDOR a legend
Oven technology in perfection for over 70 years
As manufacturers of deck ovens we have the knowledge required to equip bakeries of any layout exactly so that they can work efficiently and economically successful. The personal strengths of each baker determine just how profitable and productive the business will actually be.
What's important: WP BAKERYGROUP is the only full-range provider worldwide. Not only the ovens are designed, manufactured and installed, but also the entire coordinated periphery. The label "Made in Germany" renders every MATADOR® a technically sophisticated and outstanding product in terms of quality.
Zyklotherm heating is introduced into baking oven design. It involves a central gas or oil-fired heater that produces hot air as the heat conduction medium, which is then controllably directed via channels around the baking or drying chamber. This enables precise temperature regulation. It also reduces operating costs.
- Conversion to liquefied petroleum gas (LPG, propane/butane): This requires the mixing unit on the burner to be replaced, the piping to be changed and the burner to be readjusted.
- Conversion to liquefied natural gas (LNG): For this purpose, a liquid gas tank must be installed and connected to the burners.
- Conversion to oil burner: WP ovens can be operated with both gas and oil burners. Thus, conversion to oil burners is also always possible, but the burner must be replaced and an oil tank and piping must be installed.
- Conversion to electrical heating: WP offers electrical cartridge heaters that are geometrically adapted to the burners and can thus be inserted into the combustion chamber to replace a burner. Additionally, a suitably dimensioned cable must be installed. Since the required power is significant, it is essential to check whether the building connection is capable of providing this power. A factor of 3 should be calculated for energy costs compared to oil or gas.
