🎯 Engineering Challenge
Why traditional solutions fell short for a luxury hotel.
As a luxury landmark along the Bund, The Ritz-Carlton Shanghai demands the highest spatial atmosphere. The hotel needed the warmth and emotional depth of real flame for its lobby and dining spaces, while meeting strict fire-safety and operational standards for a high-rise — wood and gas solutions were both impractical due to structural penetration, venting and maintenance.
💡 BB Fires Solution
Ventless real-flame fireplaces answering the core needs of a luxury hotel.
BB Fires answered with ventless bioethanol real-flame fireplaces: zero structural penetration, zero gas lines, zero smoke. Real and controllable flame, paired with low-temperature safe surfaces and smart remote control, lets the hotel team ignite remotely before guests arrive for a seamless hospitality experience.
