The Laboratory Step Ladders category supports laboratories that need to reduce exposure to chemical, biological, particulate, thermal and physical hazards during routine work and emergency response. The range spans routine bench requirements and more specialised applications where material choice, control and repeatability become especially important.
PPE and safety products must match the identified hazard, because general-purpose protection may be unsuitable for a specific chemical, exposure route or task. The practical choice therefore depends on material compatibility, fit and coverage, inspection requirements, and replacement and storage, as well as how frequently the product will be used and how it connects with the rest of the procedure.
Risk assessment comes first, followed by selection of suitable engineering controls, PPE, emergency equipment, inspection routines and replacement intervals. Looking at the full sequence makes it easier to identify the correct accessories and consumables before the equipment is put into service in research, clinical, education, manufacturing, field and service laboratories. As part of the Laboratory Safety & PPE range, these products can be selected with the equipment and consumables used before and after this stage.
Our Laboratory Step Ladders range
Our collection covers operating principle of the rollers on the wedo superstep, the colour models, the surface of the step stool easy to clean, and step-ladders workflow compatibility, giving laboratories practical choices for routine work and more specialised applications.
Operating principle of the rollers on the WEDO SuperStep
The stool features spring-loaded castors. When you push it, it rolls freely. When you step on it, the castors retract, and the stool sits firmly on its non-slip rubber base ring for maximum stability. Selection should take account of material compatibility, fit and coverage, and inspection requirements. It is also worth checking cleaning, replacement and storage requirements before the item becomes part of a routine procedure. Used correctly, this part of the range helps laboratories support practical risk controls without making routine laboratory work unnecessarily difficult. The result is a setup that is easier to train, document and maintain.
The colour models
Functionally, all WEDO Roller Stool SuperStep models are identical. The colour options (black, white, red, blue, grey) allow labs to match their existing aesthetic or use colour-coding to designate equipment for specific zones. Before ordering, compare fit and coverage, inspection requirements, and replacement and storage. A product that fits the complete workflow will generally be easier to validate, maintain and reorder. This is especially valuable when teams need to support practical risk controls without making routine laboratory work unnecessarily difficult. Consistent handling also reduces the risk of variation between batches or operators.
The surface of the step stool easy to clean
The plastic and rubber construction of the WEDO SuperStep is designed to be wiped down with standard laboratory detergents, helping maintain hygiene in clinical or research settings. For routine and specialised work, assess inspection requirements, replacement and storage, and identified hazard. Matching these points early helps avoid adapters, consumables or operating limitations being discovered after purchase. Used correctly, this part of the range helps laboratories support practical risk controls without making routine laboratory work unnecessarily difficult. The result is a setup that is easier to train, document and maintain.
Laboratory Step Ladders workflow compatibility
This part of the range covers practical options for step-ladders where laboratories need to adapt the product to different samples, workloads or operating conditions. Selection should take account of replacement and storage, identified hazard, and protection rating or intended use. It is also worth checking cleaning, replacement and storage requirements before the item becomes part of a routine procedure. In practice, this supports efforts to support practical risk controls without making routine laboratory work unnecessarily difficult. It also gives staff a clearer and more repeatable procedure when multiple users or shifts share the same equipment.
Featured brands
Kimberly-Clark is known for low-lint wipes, protective apparel and workplace hygiene consumables, AS ONE is known for cleanroom supplies, compact laboratory equipment and general consumables, and LLG Labware is known for practical laboratory consumables, accessories and routine bench supplies.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do the rollers on the WEDO SuperStep work?
The stool features spring-loaded castors. When you push it, it rolls freely. When you step on it, the castors retract, and the stool sits firmly on its non-slip rubber base ring for maximum stability. Before ordering, confirm inspection requirements, replacement and storage, and identified hazard and any accessories or consumables needed for routine use.
What is the difference between the colour models?
Functionally, all WEDO Roller Stool SuperStep models are identical. The colour options (black, white, red, blue, grey) allow labs to match their existing aesthetic or use colour-coding to designate equipment for specific zones. Laboratories should compare inspection requirements, replacement and storage, and identified hazard and document the selected setup for consistent use.
Is the surface of the step stool easy to clean?
The plastic and rubber construction of the WEDO SuperStep is designed to be wiped down with standard laboratory detergents, helping maintain hygiene in clinical or research settings. Before ordering, confirm inspection requirements, replacement and storage, and identified hazard and any accessories or consumables needed for routine use.
Which specifications matter most when comparing step-ladders?
Start with the application and sample, then compare inspection requirements, replacement and storage, identified hazard, and protection rating or intended use. Check compatibility with existing equipment and confirm any accessories, consumables, calibration items or replacement parts required for routine use. Laboratories should compare inspection requirements, replacement and storage, and identified hazard and document the selected setup for consistent use.
What should I check before ordering step-ladders?
The most important points are inspection requirements, replacement and storage, identified hazard, and protection rating or intended use. Laboratories should also consider how the item will be stored, prepared, cleaned and replaced over its working life. For step-ladders, also check inspection requirements, replacement and storage, and identified hazard so the product fits the complete procedure.
