Yes that's right dubaicrew. I read an article about it too. it's made of a carbon fibre material as well I believe. Much lighter than what's already there. Most problems in regards to catering trolleys/carts is that the wheels get stuck or the brakes don't work or in fact the brakes are stuck and you can't get the damn things moving without looking like you're pushing the actual aircraft itself.

just found the following links that might help
