LOUISVILLE LADDER UNVEILS SERIES OF NEW PRODUCTS AT STAFDA, 2011

LOUISVILLE, KY— Louisville Ladder Inc., the innovation leader in climbing products, unveiled a series of new products at STAFDA’s 2011 Annual Convention today in San Antonio, Texas.

The research and development team rolled out an improved stage handle, which combines an ergonomic design with superior polymer technology. The redesigned P-Series stage platform handles are made with a more durable, high-impact polymer, increasing their strength by more than 100% over competitors’ models.

The company has also developed a modular guardrail system to accompany its plank and stage platforms. To accompany this new system, Louisville Ladder unveiled an online guardrail selection tool that allows customers to easily and quickly determine the components they need to purchase to properly assemble a safe and effective guardrail.

“At Louisville Ladder, we’ve built a reputation on creating safe, innovative climbing products for consumers and professionals,” said Santiago Veytia, Director of Marketing. “Our new stage handles, guardrail system and interactive guardrail selection tool are the culmination of a great deal of research and engineering, and we’re very excited to bring them to market.”

The company has also expanded its existing product line to include a 32’ and 40’ version of the existing Type IA Fiberglass Extension ladder, whose previous maximum height was 28’.

Louisville Ladder Inc. is the world’s leading innovator in ladder manufacturing. Since its founding in 1946, Louisville Ladder has introduced industry-shaping innovations such as the Pro-Grip and Pro Top.
