Top 3 Frequently Asked Questions

1. Why should I use fibreglass instead of aluminium? Fibreglass is non-conductive and does not rust. If you work near electricity or in corrosive environments, fibreglass is the safest and most durable choice.

2. Is this ladder heavy to move? While fibreglass is denser than aluminium, this 2.4m model is balanced for portability, though two people are recommended for maneuvering in confined spaces.

3. How do I clean the fibreglass stiles? Use a damp cloth with mild detergent. Keeping the stiles clean of grease and moisture helps maintain their high electrical insulation value.
