A ladder constructed with side rails made from reinforced plastic, which integrates high-strength fillers to increase durability. These ladders are designed to be non-conductive, making them suitable for use in environments where electrical safety is a concern.


Key Benefits:

  • Increased Durability: Reinforced plastic increases the ladder’s resistance to wear and damage, extending its lifespan.
  • Non-Conductive: Provides safety in environments with electrical risks, reducing the risk of electrical shock.
  • Lightweight: Easier to handle and transport compared to traditional metal ladders, while still offering robust performance.

Applications:

  • Ideal for home maintenance and repair due to its durability and safety.
  • Suitable for offices and retail spaces, offering strength and non-conductivity.
  • Used in environments with chemicals or electrical hazards, ensuring safety and durability.

OSHA Compliance for Reinforced Plastic Ladders:

Ensure the ladder meets all safety requirements by following these key OSHA guidelines:

  • Material Standards: Ensure that the reinforced plastic used meets OSHA’s safety and durability requirements.
  • Load Capacity: Verify that the ladder supports the intended load and usage as specified by OSHA standards.
  • Regular Inspections: Perform regular checks to ensure the ladder remains in good condition and complies with safety regulations.
