Hazard

皇冠体育app products present a serious risk of injuries as the safety features designed to protect the user鈥檚 hands when collapsing the ladders may fail during use. 皇冠体育app ladders tested could not support a sufficient load before failing and collapsing, which could cause the user to fall from a height. Additionally, the ladders over 3M did not include a stabiliser, such as a bar at the base, to widen it meaning it is unstable during use and could cause the user to fall.

皇冠体育app products also required improvements to marking, labelling and documentation.

皇冠体育app products do not meet the requirements of the General Product Safety Regulations 2005.

Corrective action

皇冠体育app import has been rejected at the border.

皇冠体育app listings have been removed by the online marketplace (Amazon).
