• Operational stability: adjustable feet and a robust substructure ensure no wobbling during delicate procedures
• Antistatic compliance: antistatic feet reduce the risk of electrostatic discharge in environments with sensitive equipment
• Certified hygiene: stainless steel and removable surfaces allow for complete sterilization and reduce contaminant buildup
• Ergonomic accessibility: adjustable height from 22 to 44 cm adapts to different body types and operator positioning
• Reliable capacity: 150 kg capacity supports the operator’s weight with a safety margin on curved or unstable surfaces
• Simplified maintenance: removable components and an open substructure facilitate daily cleaning and scheduled maintenance

Step stool dedicated to operating theatres, hospital surgical centres, and private clinics where operator positioning must ensure optimal visibility and easy access to the surgical field. Also used in specialized dental practices for procedures requiring stable operator elevation.

Appropriate in contexts where the ISO 14644 standard (controlled contamination environments) requires sterilizable materials and absence of contamination sources. Compatible with biosafety protocols in accredited facilities and with international standards for critical environments.

Choose this step stool when microbiological safety and operational stability are priorities. It is the correct solution if the environment requires antistatic certification, frequent cleaning, and compliance with hospital standards. Prerequisite: availability of space in the operating theatre (footprint W60 × D68 cm) and the need for variable height between 22-44 cm for optimal operator positioning.

Differentiate from simple domestic ladders: the specific design for the operating theatre, the removability of the platforms, and the antistatic feet make it unsuitable for other environments but indispensable in critical healthcare contexts.

Is it different from a standard domestic or industrial ladder?

Yes. This step stool is designed specifically for the operating theatre: sterilizable stainless steel material, certified antistatic feet for critical environments, removable platforms for complete sanitization, and an open substructure to reduce contaminant accumulation areas. Domestic ladders do not meet these requirements.

Do the non-slip platforms maintain their properties after autoclave sterilization?

Yes. The stainless steel knurling maintains its non-slip properties after wet autoclave sterilization. The removability allows for separate sterilization without compromise.

Do the antistatic feet require specific maintenance?

Periodic visual inspection of the polyamide is recommended. For highly sensitive environments, verify compliance with the hospital facility’s ESD protocols during initial validation.

Which reference standard guarantees safety in the operating theatre?

Compliance with ISO 14644 for controlled contamination environments, and compatibility with UNI EN 13857 for protective devices and safe access. Verify specific supplier certifications with the hospital facility.

Is the 150 kg capacity sufficient for surgeons with equipment?

Yes, the 150 kg capacity is certified for the weight of a single operator in standard surgical equipment. Not suitable for additional loads or simultaneous access by multiple people.

Can it be used in environments with negative or positive pressure?

Yes. The open structure and stainless steel materials do not interfere with environmental control systems. Verify compatibility with the hospital facility’s specific protocols.
