TELESTEPS® Expands Professional Distribution Through Grainger

Professional telescoping ladder portfolio—including innovative DuPont™ Kevlar® reinforced composite models—now available through one of North America's leading industrial distributors.

TELESTEPS®, a pioneer in professional telescoping ladder technology, has reached a major distribution milestone with the availability of its professional ladder portfolio through Grainger.

The relationship significantly expands access to TELESTEPS® products for professional, industrial and commercial customers across the United States, bringing the company's compact telescoping ladder technology to organizations purchasing through one of North America's most established industrial distribution channels.

For TELESTEPS®, the expansion represents an important step in introducing a different approach to professional access equipment—one built around professional performance, portability and dramatically more compact storage.

Professional Reach. Compact Storage.

Since 2001, TELESTEPS® has focused on solving one of the fundamental challenges of conventional ladders: they provide necessary working height, but their size can make them difficult to transport, store and maneuver.

TELESTEPS® telescoping technology allows professional ladders to retract into compact packages for transportation and storage, then extend when full working height is required.

That can be particularly valuable for construction professionals, maintenance technicians, utility crews, telecommunications workers and other field personnel operating from service vehicles or transporting equipment into difficult-to-access work environments.

Aluminum and Advanced Composite Technology

The TELESTEPS® assortment available through Grainger includes professional telescoping extension and A-frame ladders spanning multiple heights, configurations and duty ratings.

The portfolio includes TELESTEPS® professional aircraft-grade aluminum ladders as well as the company's innovative models engineered with DuPont™ Kevlar® reinforced composite rails.

Both models incorporate DuPont™ Kevlar® reinforced composite rails and are designed for professional environments where compact transportation and non-conductive ladder construction are important considerations.

Making TELESTEPS® Easier to Buy

Availability through Grainger gives organizations already using the distributor for industrial and MRO procurement a convenient, established channel through which to purchase TELESTEPS® products.

For companies managing multiple facilities, field crews or vehicle fleets, access through an established procurement channel can simplify purchasing while introducing new equipment options to the professionals who use them.

“This is an important milestone for TELESTEPS®. Grainger gives us an opportunity to put our technology in front of a much larger professional audience. We believe professionals shouldn't have to choose between the working height they need and a ladder that's practical to transport and store. TELESTEPS® was built around solving that problem.”

— Gary Percy, Director of Business Development, TELESTEPS®

The Grainger relationship also expands the reach of TELESTEPS® as the company continues introducing its next generation of professional telescoping access equipment to the electrical, utility, telecommunications, construction and industrial markets.
