Industrial and Aluminum Ladders - Types and Safety Standards
Types of Industrial Ladders
Choosing the right ladder depends on working height, task type, and work environment. Safety is the priority when working at heights.
1. Folding Aluminum Ladder
Lightweight and easy to transport and store. Ideal for home use and light work. Available in 3-6 meter heights.
2. Extension Ladder
Extendable to great heights up to 12 meters. For outdoor work and building maintenance.
3. Multi-Purpose Ladder
Converts between several forms: straight ladder, A-frame, scaffold, and extension ladder. Most versatile.
4. Platform Ladder
With wide platform at the top for stable standing. Suitable for work requiring long time at height.
5. Scaffold Tower
For working over wide areas at heights. With lockable wheels and wide work platform.
Safety Standards
