Construction News Image
International castors manufacturer TENTE has cemented its support for environmentally friendly solutions with its range of products.

Castors that Save 11 Million Litres of Kerosene per Year!

In aviation, lightweight construction plays a crucial role, both in passenger transport and logistics. That is why SPIRIANT GmbH, a leading supplier of inflight trolleys, was on the lookout for a new solution to benefit their applications. TENTE was happy to provide them with just that! We suggested the Aviana Light, a castor built with light-weight properties and enhanced manoeuvrability in mind. This solution not only reduces the weight of their trolleys, but in return could reduce their carbon footprint, improve their environmental friendliness and enhance manoeuvrability.

Reducing Environmental Impact with Aviana

The TENTE Aviana light ensures excellent stability, effortless manoeuvrability and has an impressively low weight of 0.35kgs! This castor is the perfect addition for in-flight trolleys and other applications that need to be lighweight, yet easy to manoeuvre around. For the aeronautics industry, having a lightweight castor is crucial because the more weight on board, the more fuel that is needed to fly.

In addition to being lightweight, our engineers also designed the locking system of the castor with flight operations in mind. Each trolley stands firm and secure even in turbulence and when climbing and descending with our locking mechanism. Of course, we left nothing to be desired, with the TENTE Aviana light, we can also customise the castor to match your corporate colours!

The importance of trolleys at airports!

When moving heavy luggage on a trolley it is extremely important to have proper functioning castors with a reliable wheel locking systems. Here at TENTE, our automatic wheel lock provides the highest degree of safety and is perfectly suited for use in all applications where it is important to reduce the risk of injury. However, our wheel locking system is not only used on luggage trolleys, it is also for the Railway Industry and the Medical Industry, two sectors that rely heavily on safety.
