Werner Launches the Podium+ Ladder

Werner has created the Podium+ Type 1A ladder, which has a load capability of 300 pounds.

The new Podium+ is designed for general contractors and residential building projects, from framing to finishing, and features a 15′′ by 18.5′′ platform that permits work in any direction without relocating the ladder.

A multifunctional wraparound LOCKTOP offers storage compartments and inserts for a range of equipment and supplies, as well as an auxiliary mounting plate for magnetic accessory storage. The Edge 360® Bracing System protects the bottom of the ladder with an integrated rail shield, EDGE Bracing, and bigger foot pads, while a waist-high extended safety rail wraps around the ladder top. Side rails that are not conductive prevent electrical transfer.
