The hazard

The ladder allows different distances between rungs while in use and there is no protection in place to prevent squeezing when the ladder is collapsed. Furthermore, the product is supplied without the required stabiliser bar for a ladder of this height, reducing its stability during use. The user could therefore fall and be injured.

The product does not comply with the General Product Safety Regulation.

What to do

Import rejected at border (compulsory, importer).

Destruction of product (compulsory, importer).
