desta / Carbon Fiber Composite Stepstool

Foldable step stool

Hasegawa Kogyo Co., Ltd.

The collapsible plastic step stools that have recently flooded the market are convenient and cheap, but rarely fit for long-term purpose. As their popularity and usage have increased, so too have accidents due to design and manufacturing faults and incorrect use. As a specialist manufacturer of aluminum ladders, Hasegawa Kogyo decided to develop a truly safe and secure foldable step stool. Strong, lightweight, and compact, it is aimed at consumers who don't want to be let down when they step up.

iF Gold Statement

Pressure on space in urban homes has led to a proliferation of clever furniture concepts like the desta stepstool. The reinforced plastic, a composite of polypropylene and carbon fiber, is a sound material choice for this lightweight yet robust item. We love the fact that it can serve as either stool or step, without appearing out of place in either role.
