At the Maine Wood Heat Company our philosophy has always to been to build and promote the greenest, most efficient and most beautiful products we could.  As the only 100% organic oven product on market, Le Panyol is as close to a perfect match as we could ask for. Since the Roman era Terre Blanche De Larnage, or “White Earth”, has been quarried and highly regarded by bakers as the premier oven base material in France.  Compared to the other oven materials, terra cotta, dense firebrick and cold cast refractory cement, Terre Blanche has a much better resistance to thermal shock, a faster warm up time, even radiation and smaller fuel consumption.  And most important the product is 100% organic . For more information on the history of Terre Blanche and Le Panyol, visit their website at: www.lepanyol.com     See a Le Panyol Oven in Action on The Raechel Ray Show!
