and design without compromise.

Gyrofocus - Guggenheim Museum (New-York 1998)

Cutting-edge partners of fire, these skillfully designed steel fireplaces combine ease of use with reliability and high performance for any interior.

The numerous national and international distinctions awarded (Design Trophy - Batimat Paris 1994 - 1995 - 1999 - 2001, National Prize for Creativity 1995, Norman Foster Selection - London 2000, exhibitions : Guggenheim - New-York 1998, Museums of Contemporary Art Bordeaux 1996, Grenoble 1997, Museum of Modern Art - Stockholm 2000…) are a testament to the quality achieved by Focus fireplaces.

Fireplaces in the Focus range

55 different types of fireplaces are included in our range :

Features

On request, using our (French/English) catalogue as a starting point, including the relevant dimensions (architect's drawings, sketches, photos, …) plans can be drawn up by ourselves, or by our partners, free of charge (French dealers or European, Asian, American importers…).

Flues, fitting and connection pieces, for most Focus fireplaces, are custom-made to make installation easier.

An installation handbook and user guide are supplied with each of our fireplaces or can be sent on request.
 
Thermal efficiency of the fireplaces

Whether equipped with a heat recuperator, a double firebox or a firebox lined with refractory bricks, these metal fireplaces offer exceptional thermal efficiency, contributed largely by the materials used (steel is very heat sensitive).
 
Options

Our general catalogue (French/English - available on request) details the options available for each fireplace : gas appliance for open or closed fires, spark-guard, special suspension plates…
Central fireplace suspended pivoting

10 central fireplaces suspended or on stand, pivoting or fixed,

25 wall-mounted or corner fireplaces,

15 built-in or free-standing single or double front fireplaces,

5 metallic hoods,

Materials

All Focus fireplaces are made of steel, which allows innovative design : fires, flue, suspension plates, heat recuperator, are coated with a heat-resistant matt black paint (up to 900°C).

Some fireplaces with decorative fronts are also available in powder coated colours.

Flat or curved, the pyroceramic glass is ventilated in each open or closed fire to prevent sooting of the glass. Also heat-resistant to 900°C.

Depending on the shape of the fire, grates are made of cast-iron or indaten steel (indaten).
 
Safety

Our fireplaces and stoves meet currently applicable French standards, notably DTU 24.21 and 24.22 and NFD 35.376, 35.303 and 34.304.
 
Guarantee and insurance

All models in the Focus range are guaranteed :

to work properly,
