Lufthansa Features New Tableware in Economy Class

In efforts to improve the services offered onboard its aircraft, Lufthansa is now providing its Economy Class guests on all intercontinental flights with meals and drinks on new, specially designed tableware.

The Lufthansa Product Management has worked together with designers from the LSG subsidiary company Spiriant to design the new tableware completely from scratch, carefully choosing materials, colors shapes and individual components, Lufthansa said in an announcement.

Trays, coffee cups, packaging and accessories will now all appear in a new lookQ Dynamic lines create shadows which give the tableware different color nuances, depending on the light reflection.

The new tableware is also environmentally friendly. Disposable materials can be largely dispensed with, thus significantly reducing volume of waste. New trays offer more stowage options due to their space-saving design, which means that one trolley can accommodate more meals than before. Slip-resistant materials, like the new anti-skid coating, facilitate handling for the crew. The tray holds the meal in a slightly tilted position and stowing the trays back is also significantly easier.

According to Lufthansa, around 900,000 individual components will go into service worldwide in the next few days.
