LITTLE GIANT SOLUTIONS DEPLOYS MILITARY SECRETS IN NEW LADDER

The Latest Little Giant Ladder Redefines the Multi-Use Ladder Category—Again.

SPRINGVILLE, Utah – August 8, 2008. Little Giant Solutions recently announced the release of the Little Giant® RevolutionXE^TM multi-use ladder system. The RevolutionXE, which is based on the original Little Giant Ladder design, weighs 20 percent less than any competing multi-use ladder. Little Giant Solutions recently secured the exclusive rights to LiteWave^TM technology (the same secret alloys and processing techniques used in many of the military’s aircraft in development). Ryan Crawford, Little Giant Solutions director of engineering says, “Adapting this technology to make it work in a ladder was challenging—but worth it. We have engineered the lightest, strongest 300-pound-rated multi-use ladder in the world.”

Art Wing, president, explains, “Our license agreement is very specific. I can’t even tell you how the material is processed. But I can tell you it is the lightest, strongest material we’ve ever used.” With a combination of light weight and interesting new features, the RevolutionXE redefines the category created by its predecessor, the original Little Giant Ladder.

Manufactured here in the US, the RevolutionXE also sports innovative patent-pending features, including the MAG4^TM hinge with magnetic palm buttons for easy tool access and new, easy-to-use Rock Locks^TM for quick adjustment.

Early testers of the Little Giant RevolutionXE have responded enthusiastically to its new features. Kevin Sanders, a Provo (Utah) electrical contractor, says “It’s all about speed and productivity for us. Until now, we’ve always carried around at least two or three ladders for different jobs. But this ladder is so light—it replaces all of those ladders and weighs about the same as my little four-foot A-frame. And it’s really quick to set up.”

Little Giant Solutions plans to use these and other new technologies in several upcoming product releases. Ryan Crawford adds, “We’re working hard to bring real improvements to our category, and the RevolutionXE is just the beginning.”
