Laboratory Storage Solutions for Strategic Supply Management

Modern laboratories face a distinct set of design and operational challenges, and storage is one of the most critical. Effective lab storage systems help maximize available space, reduce overcrowding, and support safer, more efficient workflows. By implementing purpose-built laboratory storage solutions, facilities can protect both personnel and valuable equipment while maintaining compliance with industry standards.

Key Laboratory Storage Applications:

  • Pharmastor™ mobile storage solutions for pharmaceuticals and consumables
  • High-density shelving for lab supply rooms
  • Mobile freezer shelving systems that optimize cold-storage space
  • Custom steel shelving systems engineered for lab environments

Common Laboratory Storage Challenges

  • Limited space due to high volumes of supplies and equipment
  • Managing and storing chemicals safely to reduce risks from fumes
  • Ensuring a safe working environment for laboratory teams
  • Balancing secure storage with convenient access to critical materials
  • Separating personal items from fragile tools, samples, and equipment

The best pharmacy shelving systems provide dense storage capacity, easy access, and clear visibility. Spacesaver helps healthcare teams better manage medication inventory by:

Why These Work for Healthcare Labs

  • In labs where precision, organization and segmentation of supplies matter (e.g., reagents, spare parts, tools), modular drawer cabinets allow fine-grained control and secure storage.
  • For workflows that require adaptable work-stations or multi-purpose shelving/benching, Rousseau’s configurable systems support evolving lab environments.
  • The durability and customization help meet long-term investment needs in facilities where high usage and changing requirements are typical.

Combined Value Proposition for Healthcare Labs

By leveraging both brands, healthcare lab managers can craft a robust storage strategy:

  • Use Spacesaver for high-volume, bulk or mobile storage where space is at a premium (e.g., mobile shelving systems, freezer/cold-room shelving, personal lockers).
  • Use Rousseau for precision storage items—small components, parts and supplies, custom bench/workstation configurations, modular storage for tools and instrumentation.
  • Together they support a lab’s goals of space efficiency, supply accessibility, safety and compliance, and workflow optimization.

Patient Room Nurse Server

Traditional sterile storage rooms can make restocking commonly-used supplies tedious and can create inventory challenges. The CoreStor Nurse Server is a unique nurse supply station that extends fully outside each patient room for easy restocking, with patented pull out shelving to provide full access to the shelves from both inside and outside the room. Patient room traffic is reduced by stocking supplies from outside the room – minimizing patient exposure and interruptions and allowing supplies to be accessed much more efficiently.
