Tall Multi Tier Stainless Steel Shelf Trolley with Push Handles

Tall Multi Tier Stainless Steel Shelf Trolley with Push Handles, Pre-owned

A tall multi tier shelf trolley in stainless steel, with solid shelves across the full width, arched push handles at both ends and four castors. It is the trolley for moving a lot of stock through a building without taking much floor, and it suits sterile services, theatre stores, a pharmacy stockroom or a ward store.

The argument for a tall rack over a two tier trolley is simple arithmetic. Both occupy roughly the same floor area, but the tall one carries several times as much because it uses the height of the room instead of the width of the corridor. Where stock has to be gathered, moved and put away in one trip, that is the difference between one journey and four.

Stainless steel matters more here than on a trolley that lives in a dry treatment room. A rack of this kind often works in sterile services, a wash room or a stores area where the air is humid and the cleaning is aggressive, and that is exactly where a painted or chrome plated frame begins to blister and rust. Stainless has no coating to fail, so it tolerates repeated wiping with chlorine releasing disinfectant and comes out of a damp environment unmarked.

The shelving is open on all sides with no back panel, which does two things. Air moves freely around whatever is on the shelves, so sterilised packs can cool and damp items dry rather than sweating against a solid surface. And stock is visible at a glance from either side, so nothing is lost at the back of a shelf. Arched handles at both ends mean the trolley can be pushed from whichever end faces the direction of travel, which matters in a corridor where there is no room to turn it round.
