Looks like an xtel or excel to me. Gardiners stocked them but didn't make them.

THat's defo an xtel look at the clamps,
clx 27ft is far better than this and lasts longer and is less of a banana when extended, that price will go up and the brush head is heavy and good for port hole cleaning

I've got an
18ft one of them, bought it of eBay it VERY wippy

Think a 32 ft one would be like cleaning windows
with a curly whirly with a brush on the end on a hot day !
keep it simple

thats a grey fibre glass extel.  110% Just took one down the dump. Useless at that length serious weight however at 18ft (top 3 sections) was quite a decent pole. Its worth 50quid tops.

That is GF extel , originaly from Varitech , im sure alex did get some from them back in the day , that could explain the sticker , or it could be as others have said the seller trying it on .

Only Alex can put this to bed !

my first ever pole was a 39 ft fiberglass xtel just like that one but with the older clamps, I did buy it from gardiners and it didnt come with a gardiner pole systems sticker on it (this was 6 + years ago and dont think that logo on sticker was around then ), I could be completely wrong of course but it looks very suspicious.
