Few kitchen tools are reached for as often as a reliable pair of tongs. From prepping and plating to cooking and serving, the right pair can make everyday tasks easier while providing the control and durability operators rely on.
Edlund has been manufacturing professional kitchen equipment for more than a century, with commercial tongs designed for reliable, everyday use. Paired with Edlund Smart Tong Holders, operators can create a more organized setup that keeps frequently used tools right where they're needed.
Designed for Everyday Performance
Commercial tongs need to do more than simply grab food. They need to provide a secure grip, withstand repeated use, and give kitchen staff the control they need for different tasks.
Edlund's stainless steel tongs are designed with commercial-grade strength and reinforced construction to help reduce flex while delivering reliable performance.
Key features include:
- Durable stainless-steelel construction for long-lasting commercial use
- Reinforced design for strength and reduced flex
- Scalloped gripper tongs for a secure hold and greater control
- Smooth, quick-locking mechanism for easy one-handed operation and storage
- Multiple sizes to accommodate a range of kitchen tasks
One Tool, Plenty of Applications
From delicate plating to working over a hot grill, having the right tong size and style can make everyday kitchen tasks easier.
Edlund tongs are available in 7", 9", 10", 12" and 16" sizes, giving operators options for everything from precise handling to heavy-duty service.
Different sizes can be used for:
- Prep & plating: Smaller tongs provide greater precision and control
- Cooking & serving: Mid-size options offer versatility for everyday tasks
- Grilling & high-heat applications: Longer tongs help provide additional reach
- Heavy-duty foods: Gripper-style paddle tongs provide a strong hold for items such as meats
With multiple sizes and styles available, kitchens can select the right tool for each station rather than relying on a one-size-fits-all solution.
Smarter Storage with Smart Tong Holders
The right tongs are only useful when your team can quickly find and access them.
Edlund's Smart Tong Holders provide a dedicated storage solution designed to keep tongs organized and readily available between uses. Instead of leaving frequently used utensils on prep surfaces or searching for them during a rush, staff can keep tongs in a consistent, designated location.
A more intentional storage setup can help:
- Keep workstations organized and clutter-free
- Make frequently used tongs easy to access
- Support a cleaner, more hygienic workflow
- Reduce time spent searching for misplaced utensils
- Create greater consistency across prep and cooking stations
Small Tools Can Make a Big Difference
Efficiency in a commercial kitchen isn't always about adding larger equipment. Sometimes, it's about choosing everyday tools that are designed to perform reliably and giving them a dedicated place within the workflow.
Durable commercial tongs can help reduce the need for frequent replacements, while thoughtful storage keeps essential tools accessible and organized. Together, Edlund tongs and Smart Tong Holders offer a simple way to support smoother day-to-day operations.
