Every veterinarian would love to have an enormous clinic with room for every piece of equipment they could ever want, room to house numerous patients and enough space for all your staff to be comfortable, but that is not always possible. Most vets put their equipment on the line first when they are trying to save space in their clinic, but maybe you do not have to. Let’s check out Intriquip’s top 5 pieces of space-saving equipment for 2024.
1. The T-Classic 9 Steam Sterilizer
Designed specifically with small clinics in mind, Tuttnauer’s T-Classic 9 Steam Sterilizer is a perfect space-saving piece of equipment. Being one of the lightest autoclaves available, weighing in at a whopping 11.7 pounds, it also requires minimal counter space.
Being so light, the T-Classic 9 can easily become portable or can be tucked away when in need of extra counter space. Not only does it save you space but works super efficiently too, running an unwrapped cycle in as little as 18 minutes. With one simple touch, the T-Classic 9 will run its automatic cycle and run until complete.
Manufactured with an electronic detector, the autoclave will turn itself off if water levels are insufficient. Also having a thermal fuse protects against overheating and electrical faults. If you are looking for a space-saving autoclave with fast cycle times, Tuttnauer’s T-Classic 9 Steam Sterilizer is for you!
2. M2300 and M2500 Wall Mounted Veterinary Anesthesia Machines
Need extra space in your surgery room or require additional space around your workstation? Look no further than the M2300 and M2500 Wall Mounted Veterinary Anesthesia Machines.
Supera’s M2300 comes with their patented safety pop-off valve, which is a huge asset to any anesthesia system. Mounting on 16-inch centers, the M2300 can be tucked away tightly against a wall saving space for other equipment, your patients, and you, with a 0-4 LPM oxygen flowmeter with mechanical stop control, an oxygen flush with safety restrictor, and a CO2 absorber with easy change ‘One Seal’ Canisters.
Having all the same advantages as the M2300, the M2500 has a built-in articulating arm. Extending to 28-inches and a full 180 degrees of movement, the M2500 can be placed in any busy room and be easily reached for whatever application is needed. Both the M2300 and M2500 Wall Mounted Veterinary Anesthesia Machines are a great way to get your anesthesia off the floor and save space in your clinic.
3. Classic Folding Wall-Mounted Exam Tables
Having exam tables in a small room can be difficult when examining larger animals, or animals with high anxiety. Transform your exam rooms with the Classic Folding Wall-Mounted Exam Tables. Coming in either Lateral or Longitudinal, Classic Folding Wall-Mounted Exam Tables can be folded up against the wall leaving you with ample floor space.
Easy-to-use lock and release handles allow you to lower the table and lock it into place in either the extended or folded position. The Classic Folding Wall-Mounted Exam Tables are manufactured with high-quality stainless-steel to ensure a long lifespan and safety for both you and your patients, with the underside of the table containing a Melamine Finish, helping to repel any moisture that the table may encounter.
4. Ceiling Mounted Exam and Surgery Lights
Having sufficient lighting in exam and surgery rooms is a must in all clinics, but portable and even wall-mounted lights can get in the way while performing examinations and surgeries. The MI-550, MI-750, and MI-1000 single or dual head, ceiling-mounted lights are a great alternative. The MI-550 was specifically designed for exam rooms and has an output rated at 50 000LUX at 24 inches.
For surgery rooms, choose between MI-750 with an output rated at 75 000LUX at 1 meter, or the MI-1000 with an output rated at 100000LUX. All three have long-life LEDs rated for 50 000 hours that are high efficiency, consuming less than half the electricity consumed by regular Halogen bulbs. 4 300K pure white illumination allows you to see your patients perfectly. Having near zero radiant heat, not only are these lights space-saving but energy efficient and cost-effective for all clinics.
5. Regal Vet-Mate Gurney
Finding equipment that saves space in a clinic when you need so many different types of tables and enough counter space for small equipment can be challenging. The Regal Vet-Mate Gurney can prove very useful in these situations. Designed to be a transport lift gurney, the Regal Vet-mate Gurney can be used as a transport table, prep table, lift table, additional counter space, or even an emergency operation table.

Lift and lower the gurney with ease as the scissor-action electronic lifting mechanism is operated by a rechargeable battery.
