Versatile® Drawers

Versatile drawers are engineered to deliver a durable, hygienic, and highly efficient storage solution for demanding environments. Featuring a translucent design for instant visibility and rapid stock recognition, each drawer is built with a ribbed base for strength and radiused corners for easy cleaning. Designed to withstand impact, chemicals, and high temperatures, the drawers are fully autoclavable and suitable for food-grade applications.

Create Your Ideal Configuration

Follow the steps below to configure a Vellex® storage solution tailored to your space, workflow and storage requirements.

Step 1

Begin with a Starter Bay as the foundation of your system, then add and customise additional Bays to create a configuration tailored to your room dimensions, storage needs, and application.

Step 2

Choose between Divider Kits for flexible, adjustable storage or PodSerts® for contained, portable organisation of small items and samples.

Step 3

Choose a layout for each drawer , with 12 Divider Kit configurations or 8 PodSerts® layouts available.

Step 4

Choose a colour for each drawer label from our curated palette of 22 colours, designed to complement any environment.

Step 5

Complete your system with optional castors for smooth mobility and secure locking when stability is needed.

Step 6

Take a final look at your customised configuration, ensure everything is correct, and submit your order online.

Not All Storage Is Created Equal

Compare Vellex® against traditional joinery and conventional storage systems to see why more organisations are making the switch. Purpose-built for science, research and education, Vellex® delivers the cleanability, flexibility and scalability that traditional storage systems simply can’t match.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes laboratory storage different from standard storage systems?
Laboratory storage systems must support regulated environments, including safe handling of chemicals and specimens. This requires materials, configurations, and layouts designed for compliance, traceability, and controlled workflows rather than general-purpose storage.
Yes. Versatile Spaces systems are designed to support high-compliance environments, including laboratories operating under PC2 and PC3 requirements. We can align system configurations with specific operational and regulatory needs.
Modular systems improve efficiency by organising storage into structured zones, reducing retrieval time, and supporting consistent workflows. This reduces handling errors and improves overall laboratory throughput.
Yes. Modular systems are designed to be reconfigured without replacing the entire installation. This allows laboratories to adapt layouts, expand capacity, or adjust workflows as requirements evolve.
What types of laboratories are these systems designed for?
These systems are suitable for a wide range of environments, including pathology labs, research facilities, pharmaceutical laboratories, and diagnostic testing environments.
Yes. Modular storage systems reduce reliance on fixed infrastructure. As laboratory needs change, systems can be adjusted rather than removed and rebuilt, reducing long-term costs and disruption.
