Heat Lamps

Stayhot’s core range centres on their acclaimed heat lamps, available in pendant, tabletop, and freestanding configurations. Key collections include:

• Focus Series — A modern interpretation of the classic industrial heat lamp, available with coiled retractable cord, straight retractable cord (SRC), or fixed cord options. Offered in a wide palette of finishes including black, copper, brass, aluminium, cement grey, umbra grey, and racing green. Constructed from anodised aluminium and galvanised steel.
• Trattoria Series — Designed for every dining atmosphere from cosy trattorias to refined fine dining. Available with retractable cord mechanisms and in finishes such as copper, brass, black, and umbra grey.
• Classic Series — Stayhot’s original heat lamp design, made from anodised aluminium with retractable height adjustment for easy positioning 25–45 cm above the food.
• HAL — Stayhot’s flagship pendant heat lamp featuring independent controls for heat and light — the first of its kind. HAL uses a 450W carbon fibre quartz tube for consistent, powerful warmth alongside an integrated LED ring for focused illumination. Ideal for buffets and plating stations where both light and heat need to be controlled separately.
• Tabletop Focus LPF — Freestanding heat lamps trusted by top chefs worldwide, offering an elegant and flexible warming solution for buffet tables. Available in single and double configurations.
