Henchman’s design excellence recognised with double award win
Henchman’s design excellence recognised with double award win: Leading garden ladder specialist, Henchman, has been crowned a double winner at the prestigious European Product Design Awards 2023, for its new Fully Adjustable Tripod Ladder and Henchman Lifting Harness.
Created and produced in partnership with Tone Product Design, the innovations topped the “Outdoor Equipment” category after being hailed by judges for their precision engineering, high-quality finish, usability and functionality.

Following a redesign of its popular Tripod Ladder last summer, the new and improved Fully Adjustable Tripod Ladder is the only of its kind on the market to be certified to EN131 standards. It features three individually adjustable legs with extra wide feet, patent-pending hedge-proof locking pins and a platform with guardrail, allowing users to work wobble and hands-free at height. Available in both standard and Pro ranges, the ladders range from 5ft to 16ft.
The Henchman Lifting Harness, which comes to market this month, takes up to 100% of the weight of heavy garden tools and is compatible with gardening equipment such as hedge cutters, pole saws, strimmers and blowers. The clever piece of kit is designed to reduce back strain and arm fatigue, allowing users to work in greater safety and with more concentration and control.
Owen Simpson, managing director of Henchman, commented on the win: “We’re absolutely delighted to have received not one, but two awards in the European Product Design Awards. We’re committed to providing our customers with innovative, high-spec equipment that allows them to work safely, and these products do just that, with precision engineering and structural excellence at the core of both designs.

Now in its fourth year, the European Product Design Awards were created to recognise and honour the expertise of international product and industrial designers who strive to improve people’s daily lives with practical and well-thought-out creations.
