HTM71 Modular Storage

In the demanding environment of healthcare, efficient logistics are not just a convenience – they're a necessity for patient care and financial health. The HTM71 system is purpose-built to revolutionise your internal transport and storage, delivering unprecedented operational efficiencies that directly translate into substantial cost savings for your organisation.

Designed with precision for the unique demands of hospitals and healthcare facilities, the HTM71 modular storage system streamlines the movement of critical supplies, equipment, and medical provisions. Its innovative design features robust runners or an ABS liner on each side, perfectly accommodating standard 600mm x 400mm clear storage trays, available in 100mm or 200mm depths. The integrated arrester clips prevent accidental tray dislodgement, ensuring secure transport and minimising costly spills or damage.
