Short on Shelf Space? Optimize With High-Density Shelving

By InterMetro Industries Corporation on May 2, 2023 8:00:00 AM

Shelving units filled with an array of roughly organized supplies and crowded into a small space. Sound familiar?

So, is the problem the size of the space or is it how the limited space is used?

While more space for supplies is always on the wish list, the best solution is to optimize the available space with high-density shelving. Increase storage space with Track Shelving, Basket Shelving or a Customized Shelving system specific to your needs.

3 Essential Upgrades to Surgical Case Carts

By InterMetro Industries Corporation on Oct 13, 2022 9:07:19 AM

Since the latest COVID surge has died down, many hospitals and surgery centers are now tackling the mountain of backlogged surgeries. Healthcare facilities need to streamline surgical processes to maximize throughput. Choosing the right surgical cart is critical.

Facilities were improvising to make their processes work, like using soccer cones to identify cart status, needing mittens to pull carts out of the cart washer, and fighting with carts to keep them tracking in a straight line and going around corners. The lack of a designed solution caused unnecessary inefficiencies throughout the day-to-day activities.

Introducing Metro CaseVue™, the all-new case cart that is designed around the day-to-day operations of facilities with enhancements that remove the improv and allow the sterile processing department to work more efficiently.
