To help you make an informed choice, you will find clear indications of the standards and certificates met next to each product. See what individual symbols mean and when it is worth investing in them.
TÜV Certificate – Premium Class for Professionals
TÜV (Technischer Überwachungsverein) represents independent, globally recognized laboratories that subject products to rigorous destructive, load, and fatigue tests.

This equipment is designed for the toughest tasks. If you run a construction or service company, or if you are looking for a tool for years of intensive work, choosing a product with this mark guarantees the highest durability and compliance with strict health and safety requirements.
info Products without TÜV
Many domestic ladders do not have this specific, optional certificate, which allows them to remain affordably priced. They are still safe and factory-tested products, but dedicated to lighter, household tasks.
Key European Standards (EN) in Our Store
European Standards define the technical criteria for the design of equipment used for work at height. In our product descriptions, you will find references to the following standards:
Ladders
European standard for ladders. Divides them into two categories (both guarantee load up to 150 kg):
- Professional Use: Intensive use in industry, trade, and construction. Reinforced structure.
- Non-Professional Use: Private users (garden, DIY). Lighter and economical.
Mobile Access Towers
Applies to mobile scaffold towers (mostly aluminium). Guarantees strict safety regulations (guardrails, stabilizers).
Requirement of HSE inspectors on professional sites.
Step Stools & Platforms
Applies to low structures (up to a platform height of 1 metre), such as step stools or warehouse steps.
Defines minimum step dimensions, slip-resistant finishes, and stability in the office, warehouse, or shop.
Summary: Which product should you choose?
| Purpose of purchase | Recommended choice |
|---|---|
| Business, construction site, industry, commercial work | Choose products marked with professional standards (EN 131 Professional, EN 1004) and TÜV certification. This is an investment in hassle-free HSE inspections and maximum equipment lifespan. |
| Home, garden, occasional DIY | Products from the Non-Professional line or models without additional, optional certificates will be completely sufficient, safe, and much friendlier to your budget. |
