“When I first saw the EcoBurners, I said, ‘Now here’s a solution to an industry problem.”

Ralph Feraco

Better heating starts with better thinking.

Outdated gel and wick pots are unsafe for staff and guests, wasteful for the planet, and unreliable for heating food. EcoBurner offers you buffet heating that:

Keeps you safe

Traditional gel and wick pots come with risks — spills, burns, and open chemicals that don’t belong near food. EcoBurner takes the worry out of buffet heating with smart safety features that keep your staff and guests protected.

  • Cool to touch, even during use
  • Shuts off automatically if knocked over
  • No open chemicals means no risk of spills
  • Non-toxic, no protective gear required
Keeps you safe

Helps the planet

Buffet heating shouldn’t come at the cost of the earth. EcoBurner is designed to save water, cut waste, and lower carbon emissions — all without sacrificing performance.

  • No water needed
  • Refillable burners reduce single-use waste
  • Recyclable fuel cans reduce strain on landfills
  • Reduces carbon emissions by up to 78%
Helps the planet

Burns long and strong (even outdoors!)

Unlike gels and wicks that burn out quickly or struggle to stay lit outdoors, EcoBurner’s windproof and waterless design provides steady, reliable heat wherever you need it — indoors or out.

  • Keeps food warmer for longer, with up to 7.5 hours of burn time
  • Windproof and waterless design works flawlessly outdoors
  • No electricity needed, making it ideal for outdoor use
  • Eliminates hot spots, keeping every dish evenly warmed

Saves you time and effort

Gel and wick pots are a hassle — setting up water pans, replacing pots mid-service, and dealing with the mess they leave behind. EcoBurner simplifies everything with a refillable system that’s easy to use and quick to clean up.

  • Speeds up setup and breakdown, saving staff hours
  • Eliminates water pans, saving time on filling and heating
  • Lasts as long as 18 two-hour gel pots, reducing refills
  • Handles both hot and cold applications with ease
  • Lightweight for easy carrying
Saves you time and effort

Goes easy on your wallet

Traditional buffet heating comes with extra costs — frequent refills, wasted staff hours, and higher energy expenses. EcoBurner simplifies the process, making every service more cost-effective.

  • Burns longer than gel pots, saving money on refills
  • Eliminates water pans, lowering heating expenses
  • Speeds up setup and breakdown, reducing labor costs
  • Reduces insurance costs by replacing open flames with a
    safer alternative
