Technical Narrative
The TrippNT 53490 Core CL Cart with White Drawers is TrippNT’s purpose-designed suture transport and consolidation platform — a 27½ × 35⅝ × 19½″ (W × H × D), 69.4 lb HDPE cart that organizes suture boxes for retrieval at 45 degrees across six adjustable large side shelves, staging the full variety of suture types, sizes, and packaging formats needed across an active surgical program in a single mobile unit that follows the supply chain from suture storage room to point-of-care. The 45-degree shelf angle is the operational key: suture boxes stored at 45 degrees are readable on the label face without picking up the box, retrievable in one-hand reach-in motion without searching through stacked horizontal boxes, and drain any moisture from the package edge rather than holding it under the box as a flat shelf does. Six shelves across the 27½″ cart width provide the capacity to stage a full OR-day’s suture supply within a single cart footprint.
The three full-extension locking drawers secure supporting supplies — needles, prep materials, procedure-specific instruments — behind a Hafele cam key lock. The bulk storage area with locking PETG sliding door provides large-item staging below the drawer and shelf tier. A built-in tool holder accommodates charts, tablets, and small utensils. The 4-inch twin-wheel casters — 2 locking, 2 swivel — navigate corridor transit and elevator threshold crossings without catching. The all-white combination creates a clean clinical aesthetic that integrates naturally into contemporary surgical and procedure suite environments. Available in 13 drawer color variants at $1,612.52. Ships fully assembled via LTL freight.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why does the Core CL store suture boxes at 45 degrees, and how many suture boxes fit across the six adjustable shelves?
The 45-degree shelf angle addresses three storage problems that flat and horizontal suture storage creates: label visibility (suture boxes stored at 45 degrees are readable on the label face without picking up the box); one-hand retrieval (the angled position allows a reach-in pull without searching through stacked layers); and moisture drainage (angled shelves drain any moisture away from the package rather than holding it beneath the box as a flat surface does). The six adjustable large side shelves span the full 27½″ cart width and can be repositioned to accommodate the height variation across suture box formats — absorbable, non-absorbable, barbed, and specialty suture boxes in standard distributor packaging. Suture box capacity depends on box dimensions; contact TrippNT for a capacity assessment for your specific suture inventory mix.
