The small Upper stepladder is particularly functional and exudes character. Designed by Alberto Meda and Paolo Rizzatto for Kartell, it features a solid metal structure welded to the transparent, shiny and crystalline polycarbonate body. The non-slip steps are practical and safe, giving this stepladder the strength and stability required for such an object. Practical and functional, Upper stepladder stands out thanks to its aesthetics; a successful combination of form and materials.

In 1949, Giulio Castelli founded the Italian company Kartell, which specialises in the manufacture of plastic goods. In 1963, he married architect Anna Castelli Ferrieri, who also became his collaborator. The Kartell collection is extensive, attractive and easy to use. Colour, play on meaning, transparency and unique shapes create unrivalled objects. Kartell soon became the symbol of "Made in Italy" design and offers a product catalogue composed of furniture, decorative accessories and lighting. They represent the icon of contemporary design. Kartell enjoyed global success thanks to its involvement in research and innovation, by using efficient production systems and increasingly modern technologies.
