Shelving and Storage
Staples Ladderax Unit Furniture
Staples Ladderax Unit Furniture was designed by Robert Heal and manufactured by Staples & Co. Ltd. in the early 1960s.
The Ladderax System, notes a company catalogue of the time, consists of a number of upright ladders, supporting shelves and cabinets. These are very simply fixed by resting on steel support rods, hooked on to the rungs of the ladders. They fit snugly into grooves under the shelves and cabinets. This allows the system to be very easily assembled and… gives the utmost flexibility.
Ladderax does not require any permanent fixing to a wall, because it self-supports.
'Ladderax is furniture you can move about and rearrange as easily as you can change your mind.'
Ladderax Unit Furniture’s modern styling has a timeless appeal.
