AIRLINE TONGS & SERVICE ITEMS
Airline Tongs for Cabin & Catering Service
Stainless-steel and silicone tongs sourced around the actual service scenario, target price, weight, safety and delivery requirement. Start with a photo, sample or simply tell us how the tongs will be used.
PRODUCT FIT
Tongs Matched to the Service Scenario
We have sourced tongs for bread, ice, towels and general serving. Economy and business-class programs can have different expectations for appearance, weight, finish and budget.
Materials
201, 430 and 304 stainless steel; silicone options depending on design.
Sizes
7-inch models are common, with other dimensions available.
Customization
Logo, color and shape can be evaluated; new tooling is possible.
HOW WE HELP YOU SELECT
Not Sure Which Tong Is Right?
Tell us the use, cabin/service level, target price, quantity and delivery requirement. We can recommend existing options, arrange samples and help narrow the choice.

Existing public molds are usually the fastest route. Customer-funded private tooling is treated as project-specific and is not offered for unrelated customer projects.

SAFETY & QUALITY CONTROL
A Tong Should Feel Safe Before It Looks Premium
Problems we have seen include rough material, incomplete polishing, burrs and edges that feel too sharp in the hand. These are practical cabin-service issues, not just cosmetic defects.
For bulk orders, HI SKY can send our own QC staff to the factory before shipment.
