Castors for Inflight Trolleys

Extremely high demands are placed on products, materials and processes which are
concerned with aeroplanes and air traffic.

This also applies to castors for inflight trolleys. Reduced weight and increased reliability have top priority for airlines here.

Furthermore, there are additional criteria which are crucial for smooth
service on board.

The new synthetic trolley castor “AVIANA“ offers the following benefits:

• reduced weight compared to conventional steel castors
• castors cannot become stuck when trolley is pulled out of the galley compartments,
• easy trolley manoeuvring
• lasting protection against corrosion through rust-free materials
• higher strength values within the required standards
• the closed and smooth housing shape stand for easy cleaning
• colour can be matched to the design of the trolleys
• use of high-quality synthetic material
• certified according to FAR/JAR for flammability

What’s more, the double castor was awarded the “red dot“ for high design quality by the international jury of the North Rhine-Westphalia Design Centre and by the DDC (German Designer Club). The Castor for inflight trolley castor “AVIANA” was nominated to participate in the competition “Design Award of the Federal Republic of Germany 2006 and 2008“.

Thus the castor “AVIANA“ ranks amongst the best in international product design.
