1 The Vet s best friend.

Gratnells storage trolleys are an ideal storage solution for any veterinary practice or animal hospital. They re so versatile, they can follow me and the patient around the entire facility.

What s more, the integrated storage trays can be colour-coded with inserts to separate needles, syringes and catheters.

And with Gratnells Antimicrobial System protection, I know our practice has excellent levels of hygiene. Quite simply, there is nothing else on the market that does it all so well as Gratnells.

2 Gratnells storage trolleys are an ideal storage solution for any veterinary practice or animal hospital. They re so versatile, they can follow me and the patient around the entire facility. Theatre, radiography, the dental suite wherever the patient is, there s a trolley right behind. This clean, efficient and organised system carries all the materials I need. What s more, the integrated storage trays can be colour-coded with inserts to separate needles, syringes and catheters. Larger storage trays hold a patient s surgical kit in fact, everything we require for their planned procedures. And with Gratnells Antimicrobial System protection, I know our practice has excellent levels of hygiene. Quite simply, there is nothing else on the market that does it all so well as Gratnells.

How much time do you and your veterinary staff spend looking for something in your consulting room or preparation room, only to find it in the back of a drawer or a dusty shelf?

Our professional storage system is perfect for storing supplies and equipment. The robust, heavy-duty frames, trolleys, trays and baskets all work together to provide a complete, integrated storage solution. If you want to reduce preparation time, speed up patient recovery and improve stock control, the Gratnells Veterinary Storage System is for you.

4 Setting the standard in hygiene and antimicrobial protection. GRATNELLS ANTIMICROBIAL SYSTEM PROTECTED Protection against the dangers of bacteria and fungi is of paramount importance to any practice. That s why we ve created the Gratnells Antimicrobial System. Now, all the frames and trolleys and even the trays in our range are treated with antimicrobial additive. This means surfaces need no longer rely solely on continual washdowns to guard against infection. With Gratnells veterinary products, you get long-lasting protection because antimicrobial surfaces are places where microbes simply cannot survive. The Gratnells Antimicrobial System is the result of our strategic partnership with BioCote, globally recognised as a guarantee of superior antimicrobial performance. All of our antimicrobial products are independently certified for antimicrobial efficacy on a regular basis and can boast a rating of 99.9%. It s something we believe has never before been seen in the veterinary profession. And that s why Gratnells products are your best defence in the war against infection. Lower levels of bacteria means improved hygiene, and reductions in staining, odours and premature degradation of materials. BioCote technology is proven effective against a wide range of bacteria, fungi & the H1N1 virus. For more information, go to

5 We ve been using a Gratnells trolley for some time now and been thoroughly impressed by its flexibility, convenience, and most importantly, build quality. In spite of daily cleaning with disinfectant, and the lumps and bumps of everyday staff and student use, it still looks like it just came out of the box! The Gratnells trolley is highly popular with the staff and very useful in our day-to-day work, and we re very glad to have it! Mark B. Hedberg DrMedVet MRCVS Short Course Manager College of Animal Welfare, Cambridgeshire Classic AND Compact. OUR TWO FLEXIBLE STORAGE RANGES. Whether it s large frame capacity for your sterile storage area, or storage trolleys for use throughout your practice, we offer two flexible storage ranges: Classic and Compact. Our Classic range of products became the leading storage system for the NHS over 40 years ago, with veterinary practices and hospitals following suit. At the heart of the system is our range of trays, baskets and tray inserts, all of which give you a multitude of storage options. Many veterinary practices and hospitals are often stuck for space. So we launched the Compact range consisting of smaller trays, frames and trolleys which are perfect for tighter areas. Each item is fully interchangeable within each Classic or Compact range, delivering time-saving, efficient and effective storage built around your practice requirements.

7 At Willows we use a large selection of Gratnells trolleys throughout the hospital (from our surgical suite to the recovery areas). There are several reasons we choose to use Gratnells time and time again. Firstly, placing the initial order is easy and the friendly staff at Gratnells are happy to visit and assist in measuring and creating the trolley which suits you and your specifications. Secondly, because you can build the trolleys to your own specification it means that the trolley is designed perfectly, fitting all your needs. As you can see from the picture of our busy surgical preparation room we have a patient trolley on wheels which moves with ease from each patient preparation table. Thirdly, the drawers are easy to clean and the dividers make organisation easy. Being a busy practice it is also important to us that the trolleys are robust. The range of Gratnells trolleys suits all of our needs and we would certainly recommend these to others.
