In our new ‘News & Trends 2025’ brochure, you will find the latest developments and new products in detail. Be inspired and discover how KRAUSE is also breaking new ground this year to make your work safer and more efficient. Here is an overview of the latest trends and innovations:
Picoly - Small but powerful!
Thanks to its lightweight but robust design, the Picoly folding step is ideal for quick use in the home, office or workshop. Its slip-resistant steps and space-saving folding system make it an indispensable helper in everyday life.
Mobile assembly working platform with grating steps - maximum safety and flexibility
The new mobile working platform with grating steps from KRAUSE sets new standards in terms of work safety. The slip-resistant grating steps guarantee maximum slip resistance, even on oily or wet surfaces. Thanks to its mobility, the working platform, which is available with 3, 4 or 5 steps, can be used flexibly and offers an optimum solution for safe working at height both in production halls and in workshops.
SkyMatic – The telescopic platform ladder for professionals
With the SkyMatic, KRAUSE presents an innovative telescopic platform ladder in two sizes that offers maximum flexibility and safety when working at height. Thanks to the adjustable telescopic system, the platform ladder can be individually adapted to different working heights. The stable construction and a generous platform ensure a secure footing and ergonomic working. SkyMatic is ideal for professional users in trade, industry and maintenance.
Bucket hook - a small innovation with a big impact
Another highlight is the new bucket hook. This clever accessory makes working on ladders much easier, as it provides a safe and practical suspension point for paint buckets, tools or cleaning containers. The simple attachment ensures greater efficiency and convenience when carrying out manual work.
INSPECT – Digital safety inspection for access technology
With the INSPECT service, KRAUSE offers a professional solution for companies without their own inspection capacities or when internal inspectors are unavailable. The on-site service includes the inspection of a wide range of work equipment such as ladders, mobile scaffolding, fixed ladders, shelving systems, platform ladders, tanker ladders, ice-free scaffolding, fall protection systems, customised solutions, power-operated windows, doors and gates as well as stationary electrical systems and machines. From 2025, the range will be expanded to include the inspection of personal fall protection equipment (PPE) and industrial trucks. KRAUSE also prepares legally compliant inspection documentation, inspects safety equipment and affixes inspection stickers. Companies benefit from an efficient and legally compliant solution that frees up internal resources and reduces the risk of accidents.
ACADEMY – Knowledge for practice
For companies that want to carry out their own inspections in future, KRAUSE offers ACADEMY, a comprehensive seminar programme for qualification as a ‘competent person’. The compact seminar teaches all the necessary basics for the safe provision and use of ladders, steps and mobile scaffolding. It enables participants to inspect this work equipment independently and to document the results in a legally compliant manner. The seminars can be held flexibly as an online seminar, at the KRAUSE plant in Alsfeld, in modern seminar hotels throughout Germany or directly at the customer's premises and are recognised as advanced training for occupational safety specialists. In addition to seminars for ladders, steps and mobile scaffolding, there are also events on the subject of fixed ladders and PPE.
wosatec – Technological advantage for more efficiency
Together with wosatec, KRAUSE is now offering digital solutions for the inspection and documentation of work equipment. The partnership combines occupational safety expertise with innovative technology and focuses on paperless inspection processes. Benefits include wosatec labels on KRAUSE products, automatic reminders for inspection intervals and digital work equipment management. Work equipment can be managed via ID tags, assigned to locations and inspection reports can be created as PDFs. The wosatec web app also enables offline inspections and ensures that inspection documents are always up to date - a pioneering step for occupational safety and environmental protection.
Special solutions - customised access technology for every requirement
In addition to standard products, KRAUSE also offers customised solutions. Customised access technology for special applications ensures that customers receive exactly the solution they need. Whether special platform stairs, customised crossovers or complex work platforms - KRAUSE develops and produces customised systems to meet the highest demands.
With these developments, KRAUSE will continue to set new standards in access technology in 2025 and remain a reliable partner for safe working at height. Look forward to further innovations and trends!
