ATAG has over 60 years' developing and perfecting the gas hob burner and remains one of the main core competencies of ATAG. ATAG markets probably the most technically advanced and efficient gas burner available in Europe today.

Gas is the choice of the professional chef and culinary enthusiast, with this in mind ATAG has developed the HG9711MT. Beautifully crafted and hand finished from stainless steel in the company's premium MAGNA finish, the five-zone gas hob has a soft leading edge, rolling out to a very flat and flush design to complement the trends in the market place today.

ATAG's range of gas hobs are designed and engineered to suit modern lifestyles, cooking fast, cleanly, safely and most importantly efficiently, giving gas an eco-friendly edge. The company's highly engineered compact A+ burner has been the break through. It is a sleek, agile burner of compact construction which its reduced size means minimal heat loss, as fewer flames escape up the side of the pan.

ATAG has shown through extensive testing that the A+ burner out performs every standard measurement criteria e.g. boiling a litre of water on an A+ burner is two-minutes faster than a conventional burner.

Design and engineering has produced a gas hob range that is efficient as well as practical and stylish too. The resilient, high quality construction, including recyclable stainless steel bases, are designed for longevity and will retain their good looks for many years to come.

The hob is designed to create space and to enable cooking flexibility so that several large and unusual shaped pans can be used together. The ATAG front and back gas hob burners are generously positioned 24cm from one another; while at the front they are 29cm apart.

Making an appliance that is easy to maintain is vital to the time challenged consumer. So often a gas hob can be fiddly, tiresome and difficult to clean. Gas burners can be composed of several component parts; however, ATAG's A+ burners are unique and are formed of just one-piece. They have a durable Flex-enamel® coating on the burner caps making them easy to clean, and a special heat resistant, scratch-proof coating on the burner crowns called Keradur®. This special coating not only makes cleaning easier and time-saving and makes them very durable, which means replacement is a long-term prospect and therefore environmentally more sustainable.

ATAG's gas hob benefits: • The A+ burner is very fast, as well as efficient, and is two-minutes faster boiling a litre of water. • One-piece burner for easy cleaning and maintenance. Saving the consumer time as well as the use of aggressive cleaning materials, which can exacerbate environment damage. • Flex-enamel® on burner caps and Keradur® heat-resistant and scratch-proof coating on the burner crowns adds ease of cleaning and durability so replacement cycle is lengthened. • Stainless steel body and components which makes the hob extremely robust and durable, and has the stainless steel has the added benefit of being recyclable at the end of the product's life.
