Unveiling the Top-Track®
6 December 2018
APC has reached a new milestone with the development of the Top-Track®, the latest in wire mobile shelving.
We’re excited to add to our product range with the inclusion of the Top-Track® wire mobile shelving system. The Top-Track® is designed to increase storage capacity in a wide range of commercial, food and health care environments. Guided by an overhead track, the shelves can easily be opened. The Top Track® can be used to store and easily access consumables as wire shelving provides visual access. An overhead track ensures unimpeded access to storage aisles for employees, utility trolleys and wheelchairs. The unit is also ideal for areas where it is difficult to incorporate a floor operated system and for ease of cleaning in and around the unit.
To enhance the stability and guidance of the unit, the Top-Track® system has been designed with two aluminium extrusions; one to guide the heavy-duty castor wheels at the base of the unit and one which is used in the overhead tracking system to encase the nylon bearings at the top of the unit. Nylon bearings are quiet when in operation, resist abrasion and are incredibly resistant to wear.
The Top-Track® is suited to most areas within a hospital including sterile storage areas, emergency departments, storerooms, wards, laboratories and outpatient clinics. With a bolt-less design, the Top-Track® is quick and easy to assemble and relocate. Furthermore, the system can be extended with additional bays if more storage is required.
Compact wire shelving has many advantages making it the preferred storage option for many clinical settings. Stainless steel wire shelving is nonporous, is easy to clean and is temperature, water and rust resistant. The openness of the shelving allows air to circulate over stored items and prevents dust collection. The flow-through ventilation of open shelving is also ideal for cold room applications. APC’s wire shelving is capable of holding up to 150kg per shelf (UDL) and shelf levels can be adjusted to suit irregular or changing clearance requirements.
Overall, the Top-Track® is a versatile, lightweight mobile shelving system which is easy to install and operate. The system provides complete flexibility, so our customers can achieve the most efficient storage possible.
