PA+ pliers — Paderno

The PA+ Tongs collection by Paderno brings together service tongs in reinforced black polyamide (PA+), designed for specific plating and front-of-house uses: salad, spaghetti, quenelle, toast and tart tongs.

What makes the PA+ tongs distinctive

Reinforced PA+ polyamide offers good heat resistance for hot or cold food contact while staying light in hand. The matt black finish is discreet in the dining room, and each tong shape is matched to a specific food type.

• Reinforced PA+ polyamide in black, food-contact safe
• Dedicated shapes: salad, spaghetti, quenelle, toast and tart
• Sizes 19, 24, 25 and 32 cm depending on use

Choosing within the PA+ Tongs collection

Which tong for which use?

Salad tongs remain the most versatile for anything served in volume (leaves, raw vegetables, sides). Spaghetti tongs are designed to grip long pasta without breaking it. Quenelle tongs, with a spoon shape, handle plating of small calibrated portions.

Which salad tong size?

The 25 cm fits table service or an individual salad bowl. The 32 cm is intended for large salad bowls, buffets and group service where the tong needs to reach the bottom.

Is PA+ dishwasher-safe?

The food-grade polyamide used in Paderno tongs handles a standard dishwasher cycle. To preserve the black tint and material stiffness over time, the hottest drying temperatures are best avoided.
