Material Finesse:
Built with ultra-durable PC plastic and supported by electroplated metal framing, this design is as lightweight as it is strong.

Have a question?
Think Beyond Steps. Build Your Everyday.
Not just a ladder. It’s a lifestyle tool hiding in plain sight.
Designed by Alberto Meda and Paolo Rizzatto, this isn’t your average utility item. It’s a step stool when you need to reach.
A nightstand when space gets tight. A shelf, a stand, a side table—whatever your day calls for.
Built from high-quality polycarbonate with chrome-plated steel supports, it’s strong enough to climb on, light enough to move with one hand, and sleek enough to live in your living room.
The beauty? It doesn’t scream “function.”
It whispers possibility. Wherever you place it, this ladder works harder—without ever looking like it's trying.
7 Colors. One Vision. Limitless Possibilities.
Style is in the details. And now—those details are yours to choose.
The UF Astra Ladder Rack comes in seven inspired shades, each designed to reflect a different side of your personality.
From bold blue, warm amber, and smoky gray, to timeless black, retro green, and soft milky white—you’ll find a tone that complements your space, not competes with it.
Seen here in milky white, it brings a clean, contemporary energy to any room. But don’t stop there.
Pick a color that tells your story—or stack a few for an even bolder statement.
This isn’t just color variety. It’s aesthetic freedom—wrapped in function.

Triangular Stability That Stands Its Ground.
A ladder is only as good as its footing. That’s why we engineered this one with a clean, geometric triangle structure—the strongest form in nature.
The moment you step on it, you’ll feel the difference. No wobble. No creak. Just solid, unwavering support, thanks to precision-angled legs that distribute weight evenly and efficiently.
Whether you're grabbing a book from the top shelf or using it as a display stand, this ladder stays put. No fuss. No fear. Just trust in every step.
More Than a Ladder. Smarter Than a Shelf.
Call it a ladder, a side table, a display rack—or all three. This isn’t just a step up—it’s a clever piece of functional design that adapts to your needs. Need to reach a high cabinet? It’s sturdy enough to hold you safely, no wobble, no second thoughts.
Need extra storage? Turn it into a clean-lined open shelf. Need a spare seat or plant stand? It’s already ready.
One piece. Infinite use cases. That’s how design should serve you—beautifully, effortlessly, and every day.
Shine with Strength. Built to Outlast.
The metal-plated frame isn’t just for looks—it’s engineered for real-life function. Crafted with triangular bracing principles, this structure offers unmatched stability in a minimalist form. Whether you’re climbing, storing, or styling, the frame holds steady.
No sway. No second guess. Just sleek durability that stays sharp, even after years of use. Polished to impress. Reinforced to perform. That’s how we define practical beauty.
Folds Flat. Fits Anywhere. Works Everywhere.
Life gets cluttered. This doesn’t.
Our ladder rack folds down in one smooth motion—no fuss, no fight—making it the ultimate companion for tight spaces and tidy minds. Slide it behind a door, tuck it in a closet, or lean it in a corner. It’s there when you need it, gone when you don’t. All the function, none of the footprint. Because good design disappears when it should.
