Outdoor Bioethanol Fireplaces for Open-Air Living
Outdoor bioethanol fireplaces are designed to bring real fire into outdoor environments without gas pipelines, chimneys or permanent construction. Using liquid bioethanol fuel, these fireplaces create a natural, open flame that is ideal for terraces, balconies, gardens, patios and poolside areas.
Many outdoor bioethanol fireplaces are portable, allowing them to be repositioned easily depending on layout, season or occasion. This flexibility makes them a preferred choice for luxury homes and hospitality spaces where adaptability is essential.
What Is an Outdoor Bioethanol Fireplace?
An outdoor bioethanol fireplace is a real-fire fireplace that operates on liquid bioethanol fuel and does not require electricity, gas lines or chimney systems. The flame is produced through controlled fuel combustion, delivering warmth and ambience in open or semi-open spaces.
Outdoor models are engineered with materials and finishes suited for exterior conditions, ensuring performance and safety when used in balconies, terraces and landscaped environments.

Portable Outdoor Fireplaces for Flexible Use
Portability is one of the defining advantages of outdoor bioethanol fireplaces. Many models are freestanding and can be moved easily across outdoor zones.
- Repositionable between terrace, garden and poolside

For this reason, most of our outdoor bioethanol fireplaces are supplied with integrated glass wind shields to maintain consistent flame performance.
