Suture Carts

Metro Suture Carts with specially designed slanted wire shelves let you organize and store sutures within easy reach.  The open wire construction and slope of shelves permit instant identification.  No more searching, the sutures you need are in plain view.  Suture cartons are neat and organized on the shelves for precise control of inventory, eliminating duplication and confusion when re-ordering.  The slanted design also allows for quick and simple loading.  Shelves are self-feeding, so cartons are always at the front within easy grasp.

Four-inch Dividers serve as ledges at the ends of each shelf to prevent cartons from sliding off as well as separating rows of cartons. Five-inch casters enable the cart to be moved easily by one person. Brakes on front casters make it simple to lock the cart in position when placed against  a wall.  Select from (6) models and sizes.

Metro qwikTRAK System

Metro’s qwikTRAK High-Density Storage System can increase the storage capacity of a given area by 30% to 50%.  This system allows more storage units to fit in a defines space.  A movable, open aisle allows full access to each shelving unit, thus eliminating hard to reach or “dead” spaces.  The floor track system guides the mobile units and opens an access aisle between any two units whenever it is needed.  This enables easy access for employees or for utility carts, simplifying the material handling task.  The qwikTRAK System is compatible with Super Erecta, Super Adjustable-Super Erecta, Super Erecta Pro, MetroMax i and MetroMax Q shelving systems.

MetroMax i qwikTRAK System

This efficient utilization of space addresses the storage needs of new or growing operations. In a new facility, less square footage would have to be dedicated to storage.  In a growing operation, the qwikTRAK System can eliminate the need to expand the facility to handle increasing storage requirements, greatly reducing the costs associated with a growing business's needs.

& 3-Mobile Units

An infinite number of configurations and performance options are possible with the qwikTRAK System.  Super Erecta variants offer a variety of finishes, accessories and shelf types that may be mixed or matched.  The MetroMax i + Q System variants with Microban antimicrobial product protection, offers the ability to mix and match MetroMax i + Q shelves and posts based on the application and economical considerations.  Both i + Q shelf options feature removable polymer open grid shelf mats for longer-life durability and easy cleaning.  Corrosion-proof MetroMax i offers a solid shelf option and better chemical resistance.  Corrosion-resistant MetroMax Q steel posts can improve the overall rigidity of the qwikTRAK System in higher weight bearing applications.  MetroMax iQ accessories may be used interchangeably between the i + Q systems to customize the qwikTRAK System.  While all of these options and variations may seem overwhelming, our Genuine Metro Products Specialists are always available to assist you in creating optimal configurations to meet your specific requirements for both dry and wet environments.
