Product Specifications
Product Description
When metal or timber ladders fail in challenging conditions, our Glass-Reinforced Polymer (GRP) Access Ladders provide the safe, long-lasting solution you need. Manufactured from high-performance GRP pultruded sections, these composite ladders deliver exceptional durability without the risk of corrosion or conductivity.
Why Choose GRP Ladders?
Our non-corrosive, non-conductive fiberglass ladders are built for high-stakes environments where reliability is critical. Thanks to GRP's excellent strength-to-weight ratio, these ladders are also remarkably easy to transport, handle, and install.
Key Features and Benefits
- Corrosion Resistant - Perfect for harsh, corrosive, or coastal environments where steel, aluminium, or timber would quickly degrade. Requires no painting or rust-proofing.
- Non-Conductive - Drastically reduces the risk of electric shocks or electrocution when working near live electrical equipment.
- High Strength - Manufactured from robust pultruded GRP profiles. Rungs provide a safe point loading in excess of 150Kg (BS 4211).
- Safe & Comfortable Design - Features easy-grip 50 x 50 mm box-section stringers and anti-slip serrated rungs for maximum user safety.
- Lightweight - Weighing just 6.3Kg per metre, these ladders are significantly easier and faster to transport and install.
- Low Maintenance - No need for painting, rust-proofing, or surface protection. Occasional cleaning and visual inspection is all that is required.
- Customisable - Available in standard dimensions (480 mm wide with 380 mm wide rungs) or bespoke sizes on request. Choose between Yellow (RAL 1003) or Grey (RAL 7001).
Ideal Applications
