With the PELLADOR® deck oven, WP BAKERYGROUP has advanced the principle of traditional bread baking in wood-fired ovens into a state-of-the-art system. Long-established values and the latest technologies are perfectly harmonized in this innovative system, and set new standards in terms of energy and resource conservation. Just like in historic wood-fired ovens, the PELLADOR® is directly fired with wood pellets and its open flame burns directly in the baking chamber, giving the baked goods the typical wood oven flavor.

Baking trendy wood-fired oven bread economically

Wood-fired oven bread is the trend, as many consumers have discovered a preference for artisan, all-natural and wholesome food. They greatly value the crispy, flavorful crust, the juicy crumb, the special aroma and the extended freshness that traditional wood-fired baking provides, and they are prepared to pay a higher price for it.

Baking in a wood-fired oven is a cultural tradition that goes back thousands of years. It is based on the principle of heating a baking chamber (decks lined with stone slabs) with wood, and making use of the stored heat to bake bread after the wood has burned down and the ash has been removed. Classic wood-fired ovens, however, show low productivity and the baking result is not always consistent. WP Bakery Technologies has revolutionized wood-fired baking with the development of the PELLADOR.

PELLADOR ovens are fired with pellets instead of wood logs. This ensures that the baking process is exactly what bakeries need for efficient production today: fast, dependable, energy-saving and sustainable, with the plus in quality of traditionally crafted products that appeal to the most demanding consumers.

Paying tribute to the fine art of wood-fired oven baking

A firm, long-baked, rustic crust, hearty taste and typical flavor – the unique character of artisan wood-fired oven bread enjoys enormous popularity among consumers. The idea of stone ovens with a blazing wood fire brings tradition and long-established values to life.

PELLADOR wood-fired oven series
Efficient baking with sustainable energy

With the PELLADOR and the PELLADOR Zyklotherm, WP has developed a wood-burning oven series that combines the advantages of the wood-burning oven with the requirements of continuous production in modern bakeries. The technology of the PELLADOR is based on two pellet burners per oven. The gases produced in the burner chamber are channelled directly into the baking chamber, where they burn with an open flame and heat up the stone walls of the baking chamber. The time between baking processes can be significantly reduced, ensuring high productivity.

Precise baking temperature control

In conventional wood-fired ovens, the temperature in the oven can only be controlled to a limited extent. The quality of the firewood is not always consistent, and once lit the wood cannot be stopped from burning down. The PELLADOR offers much more targeted temperature control.

Pellets are of consistently good quality. The preferred baking chamber temperature can be worked out from empirical values and the baking chamber’s control characteristics. The combustion process can be interrupted by stopping the pellet feed; there will only be a short after-burning. As a result, the baked products are of a controllable, consistently high quality.

Smaller footprint, increased productivity

Unlike classic wood-fired ovens, the Pellador can have 2 to 3 baking chambers arranged one above the other. It is also possible to combine two Pellador of 3 decks each to form a Pellador tower with 6 decks. A loading system can be used to load and unload the baking chamber to achieve maximum production capacity with minimum floor space.

Best Practice

Traditional wood-fired oven baking
in proven MATADOR quality

MATADOR® - For us as a manufacturer of deck ovens, it is of course the product name. But it also stands for quality. Bakers all over the world see it the same way. They mention MATADOR® and QUALITY in the same breath. The MATADOR® is a technically sophisticated and qualitatively outstanding product. The PELLADOR wood-fired deck oven is based on the same expertise.

MATADOR – Quality since over 60 years

Loading and unloading wood-fired ovens
Whether manual, semi-automatic or fully automated - everything is possible!

Deck ovens may require the use of loaders that facilitate loading and unloading during the work process. Here, for example, the fully automatic OBER PRO II loading system is used, which takes over both the loading of the dough pieces and the baking of the finished baked products at the end of the baking time. For semi-automatic systems, we recommend the PAGE or STEWARD loading systems. And as a small, manual solution, JACK relieves employees of heavy, physical labour.

PELLADOR wood-fired oven - Automation with OBER PRO II

Baking is done in the classic way - typical for wood-fired ovens - with a falling temperature. All processes are controlled fully automatically. The system recognises the status of each product in the baking process, including the remaining baking time. Individual recipe and product management and oven and loading control are carried out via the overall system control. An operator therefore only needs to monitor the system. Valuable time is saved, efficiency and cost-effectiveness are increased, as is the taste experience.
