Why 1400mm?
I get asked this a lot. Not about the material or the number of drawers. About the width. Why 1400mm?
The short answer: it's the size that fits a standard pharmacy counter and a clinic room equally well. Go narrower and you lose capacity. Go wider and you start running into wall outlets, door frames, and room layouts that weren't designed for oversized furniture.
1400mm — about 55 inches in imperial — is the dimension that works regardless of whether your customer is a solo practitioner in a rented clinic room or a hospital pharmacy with standardized workstations.
This cabinet is built around that dimension. Type 201 stainless steel, 48 compartments, 16 drawers, designed to serve as the central workstation for any TCM dispensing setting.

The 1400mm dimension — what it accommodates
A 1400mm countertop splits into useful zones. On the left, room for the dispensing scale. Center, space to lay out a prescription sheet and stage herbs. Right side, space for packing materials or a second scale during busy hours. The countertop is a single continuous sheet of stainless steel with no seams — nothing for spills to seep into.
The depth — 600mm — matches standard European and Asian counter depths. A 600mm deep surface fits flush against most pharmacy workstations. The cabinet doesn't protrude into the workspace.
Height options of 830mm (no casters) and 900mm (with casters) correspond to standard standing workstation heights. If your pharmacy uses wheelchair-accessible counters, the 830mm option is worth noting.
48 compartments — how capacity works at this size
16 drawers with 3 compartments each equals 48 individually separated herb storage spaces. Each compartment is approximately 95mm wide — wide enough to hold a standard herb bag, narrow enough to keep individual herbs organized without wasted space.
The compartments are fixed. The stainless steel dividers are welded to the drawer floor. They don't slide, they don't come loose, and they don't need to be adjusted when you reorganize. Once the cabinet is in your pharmacy, the layout stays the way you set it.
Here's what 48 compartments actually covers in practice:
About 30-35 commonly prescribed single herbs
10-12 standard formula combinations
3-5 specialty or seasonal herbs
That covers the daily formulary of a typical TCM clinic. If your pharmacy stocks more than 48 varieties, this cabinet works as a primary unit paired with a secondary storage cabinet for overflow stock.
Why Type 201 for clinic and pharmacy use
Selecting the stainless steel grade for a dispensing cabinet comes down to the environment it operates in. For a pharmacy counter or clinic room — temperature-controlled, regular cleaning, dried herb contact only — Type 201 is the established standard.
We use Type 201 because it offers the necessary corrosion resistance for these conditions without the premium of Type 304. The savings in material cost get invested elsewhere: thicker drawer slides, continuous seam welding, and a heavier countertop gauge.
If your pharmacy handles wet herbs, liquid extracts, or operates a compounding area with chemical exposure, we'll advise you to step up to Type 304. But for dried herb dispensing in a standard clinic or pharmacy setting, Type 201 is the appropriate specification.
The brushed finish serves a practical purpose: it hides the daily scuffs and fingerprints that a glossy surface would show. Pharmacies are high-touch environments. A matte surface stays presentable longer between cleanings.
Setup for clinic and pharmacy
This cabinet arrives fully assembled. The packing list is straightforward: one cabinet, four casters if ordered, a set of drawer labels.
For a clinic, the cabinet goes against the wall. Countertop holds the scale and prescription pad. Practitioner stands facing the drawers, herbs within arm's reach. Patient faces the practitioner across the counter. Standard consultation room layout.
For a pharmacy, the setup changes. The cabinet becomes part of a longer workstation. Multiple cabinets can be positioned side by side — the 1400mm width means two fit a 2800mm counter run with no gaps. Drawers face the pharmacist. Countertop holds preparation materials.
If wheeled casters are specified, reconfiguring the layout takes about five minutes per cabinet.
What we check before shipping
Each cabinet goes through the same sequence before it leaves the workshop:
Weld inspection — every seam is visually inspected and hand-checked for smoothness. No sharp edges, no incomplete welds.
Drawer alignment — each of the 16 drawers is inserted and tested. They should slide without resistance, and the drawer fronts should align flush with the cabinet face.
Slide test — full extension and return, 10 cycles per drawer. Any hesitation in the ball-bearing mechanism gets flagged and the slide is replaced.
Surface check — the brushed finish is inspected under workshop lighting for scratches, dents, or handling marks. Any blemish gets refinished before crating.
Dimension verification — the cabinet is measured against the spec sheet. Width, depth, height, squareness. Deviations beyond +-2mm are corrected.
Packaging — moisture barrier wrap, foam corner protectors, plywood crate with steel strapping.
The inspection takes about 40 minutes per cabinet. It's done by the same person every time — one inspector who works on our line and doesn't sign off until the cabinet passes all six checks.
Practical considerations for import buyers
If you're sourcing this cabinet for a pharmacy outside of China, here are the points that matter:
Documentation. We provide commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading, certificate of origin, and material test certificates. These are standard and included.
Crating. The plywood crates meet ISPM-15 heat treatment standards for international shipping. No issue with customs clearance on wood packaging.
Lead time. Single-unit orders ship within 15-20 working days of order confirmation. Larger orders scale based on quantity — a 20-foot container load takes 25-30 working days.
Sample orders. We encourage first-time buyers to start with one unit. Confirm the quality, confirm the fit, then scale. This approach has worked for buyers across Southeast Asia, Africa, and the Middle East.
FAQs
Q: Can this cabinet go against a wall with a baseboard? Yes. The back of the cabinet has a recessed kick space. Standard baseboards don't prevent flush wall mounting.
Q: The countertop — can I mount a dispensing scale on it permanently? You can. The countertop is a solid stainless steel sheet. Scales, label printers, or small equipment can sit on it without issue. For permanent mounting, we can pre-drill mounting holes on request.
Q: What color are the drawer labels? Standard is white with embossed lettering. Custom printing available for bulk orders.
Q: How do I handle the import documentation? We work with freight forwarders who manage customs clearance at the destination port. We provide all required export documentation. You work with your local forwarder for destination clearance.
Q: Is the cabinet suitable for a hospital pharmacy environment? Yes — the non-porous stainless steel surface is compatible with hospital cleaning protocols. We supply to hospital pharmacies in several countries. If your hospital requires specific certifications, send the requirements and we'll confirm compliance.
A perspective from our workshop
We've been making these cabinets in the same workshop for years. The 1400mm size is our most produced configuration. It's not because we decided it should be the standard. It's because buyers kept coming back to it after trying other sizes. The ones who started with a narrower cabinet needed a second one sooner than expected. The ones who went wider sometimes struggled with room fit.
1400mm balances capacity with practicality. It holds 48 herbs, fits standard pharmaceutical workstations, and doesn't force the room layout to change around it.
If you're planning a pharmacy setup and wondering whether this size fits your plan, send me your room dimensions. I'll tell you if it works.
