To meet the demands of trade professionals and emergency personnel, W.steps (pronounced “vee-steps”) PRIME, COMBI and RESCUE Line telescopic ladders from Hultafors Group North America are now available in the United States and Canada. W.steps ladders have gone through extensive third-party testing. The PRIME and COMBI Lines are Type 1A heavy-duty ANSI certified, as well as EN 131 and SP certified. The RESCUE ladders are certified to NFPA 1930 and EN 1147 standards. Since W.steps ladders are telescopic, users can easily extend them to the precise height that’s required and then quickly collapse them for compact transport and storage. For example, the 13.5-foot telescopic PRIME ladder collapses down to 36 inches. With safety in mind, the rungs on W.steps ladders feature grooved channels to disperse dirt and moisture, and are 3 1/8" wide to help prevent slipping, provide greater comfort, and reduce muscle fatigue. The PRIME and RESCUE Lines offer adjustable safety feet as an add-on accessory.
