ABS Construction Built for Healthcare Environments
The D-1 Bedside Locker is manufactured from ABS (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene) engineering plastic — a material widely specified in hospital furniture for its resistance to moisture, chemicals, and the frequent cleaning and disinfection demands of clinical settings. Unlike powder-coated steel, ABS does not corrode or chip, making it particularly well suited to high-humidity areas such as wards, ICUs, and ablution-adjacent patient rooms. The smooth, non-porous surfaces are easy to wipe down between patients, supporting effective infection control protocols.
Organised Storage for Patients and Clinical Staff
Storage is arranged across three zones. The top food board provides a flat accessible surface for meals, personal items, or monitoring equipment. A drawer below accommodates smaller personal effects such as documents, medication blister packs, or toiletry items. The lower door cabinet — fitted with an interior shelf — offers enclosed storage for larger belongings, keeping patient areas neat and reducing clutter. A fold-away tower shelf mounted on the lateral side provides additional utility when needed, folding flat when not in use to preserve corridor and bedside clearance.
Mobile, Compact, and Practical for Ward Use
The D-1 is mounted on castors, allowing nursing staff to reposition it quickly during patient transfers, bed-making, or procedures without lifting. Its compact footprint (475 × 470 mm base) is designed to occupy minimal floor space in standard ward bays. The knock-down design simplifies logistics, storage, and replacement. Available from Vital Medical in South Africa, the D-1 is an economical and practical choice for healthcare facilities equipping new wards or replacing ageing bedside furniture.
