Hultafors Group introduces new brand W.steps, focusing on high-quality and more sustainable access solutions. Using certified aluminum produced with renewable energy sources and incorporating recycled materials, W.steps aims to reduce its carbon footprint and provide customers with greener options. Launching April 3, 2024, W.steps aims to be the green choice in the ladder industry.
Hultafors Group and Wibe Group are jointly announcing a strategic decision that marks a significant milestone in their partnership.
