Transtak’s Forestry Pruning Ladders are purpose-built for pine pruning and forestry work, combining light weight with maximum strength. Manufactured in New Zealand from fully welded aluminium, they’re easy to handle in the field while constructed and designed tough for heavy use in harsh terrain.
The V-shaped top grips securely against the tree trunk, and all ladders over 3.0 m include safety handles and chains for added stability when working at height. Our unique internally ribbed side extrusions provide exceptional strength without excess weight, while the oval rung profile with tread grip gives sure footing on every step.
For safe, stable placement on rough terrain, the angled feet are designed to dig into the ground, keeping the ladder anchored while you climb.
Transtak Forestry Ladders are industrial load rated and compliant with AS/NZS 1892.1:1996, giving you confidence in both strength and safety.
Built tough, light to carry, and proven in the forest.
Serrated oval grip steps give maximum traction, reducing slip risk and keeping your feet steady even in wet or muddy conditions.
