IV Pole Manufacturers

What We Supply in the IV Pole Range

An infusion stand is a basic but load-bearing piece of ward equipment. It must hold filled infusion bags or bottles at a stable height, roll or stand without tipping, and remain easy to clean between patients. Our range covers the configurations most often requested by hospitals, distributors and home care suppliers.

• Stainless steel infusion stands — five-leg or tripod base, telescopic upper tube, two to four hooks, for general ward and emergency use.
• ABS / plastic-base IV poles — moulded base with smooth surfaces, suited to wards where wipe-down cleaning and low weight matter.
• Mobile IV poles with castors — 50 mm to 75 mm castors, with or without brakes, for transport between bed, corridor and treatment room.
• Compact and portable stands — lighter tube sections for home infusion, clinics and ambulance or field use.
• Wall-mounted and rail-mounted holders — for ICU and recovery areas where floor space is restricted.

Matching the Stand to the Application

Selection is driven by where the stand will be used, how many infusion lines run at once, and who moves it. The table below shows how we normally map ward requirements to a configuration.

Materials and Construction

Tube sections are normally produced in stainless steel or powder-coated steel, with ABS or PP used for moulded bases and hook assemblies. Material choice affects weight, corrosion behaviour after repeated disinfection, and the visual finish expected in a new ward.

• Stainless steel tubing — for wards where frequent wet cleaning and disinfectant contact are routine.
• Powder-coated steel — colour-matched to ward furniture, with a smooth, chip-resistant surface.
• ABS moulded base — impact-resistant, low weight, available in standard medical colours.
• Castors — thermoplastic or polyurethane tread, swivel type, optional total-lock brake.

Critical Specifications We Confirm Before Production

Infusion stands are simple products, but the specification details decide whether they survive years of ward use. We confirm the following points with each project before tooling or production is scheduled.

• Height range — minimum and maximum hook height, and the telescopic adjustment method (twist lock, friction collar or pin lock).
• Hook configuration — number of hooks, hook geometry, and whether an IV pump or monitor bracket is required.
• Base diameter and leg count — 3-leg, 4-leg or 5-leg, sized against the tipping load expected in use.
• Load capacity — stated per hook and for the complete stand, matched to the infusion containers and accessories in use.
• Tube diameter and wall thickness — the main driver of rigidity and long-term stability.
• Castor size and braking — 50 mm, 63 mm or 75 mm wheels, with or without individual brakes.
• Finish and colour — stainless, powder-coat RAL reference, or moulded colour to match ward furniture.

OEM and ODM Configuration

As an OEM/ODM factory, we build IV poles to a customer's own specification rather than only offering a fixed catalogue item. Configuration work typically covers tube length, hook pattern, base style, castor type, colour, logo placement and packaging format.

For distributors and retail programmes, we can prepare private-label packaging and instruction sheets so the product is ready for shelf or catalogue sale. For hospital projects, we work to the ward schedule and deliver in batches that match the installation sequence.

Quality Control and Documentation

ADVAN Medical operates under ISO 13485:2016 quality management, with most products CE certified and our Suzhou factories complying with FDA requirements. Incoming tube, base and castor components are checked against the approved specification, and finished stands are inspected for height adjustment, hook security, base stability and castor function before packing.

• Dimensional check against the approved drawing
• Telescopic adjustment and locking function test
• Load and stability verification on the assembled stand
• Surface and finish inspection, including weld and coating quality
• Castor rolling and brake function check
• Pre-shipment inspection with retained samples and traceability records

Installation, Use and Maintenance

Most floor-standing IV poles require only assembly of the base to the lower tube, which we supply with the necessary fittings and a simple instruction sheet. Wall and rail-mounted versions need the mounting position confirmed against the ward layout before delivery.

Routine care is limited to wiping the tube and base with a compatible disinfectant, checking that the height lock holds under load, and inspecting castors for hair, thread or worn tread. Spare castors and hook assemblies can be supplied as separate line items so wards can keep stands in service rather than replacing complete units.

Information We Use to Configure Your Solution

A workable quotation depends on a small set of project inputs. When these are clear, we can confirm the model, packaging and delivery scope without repeated revisions.

• Application and setting — ward, ICU, outpatient, home care or emergency use.
• Quantity and delivery schedule — total units and whether staged delivery is required.
• Height range and hook count — the working heights and number of infusion lines.
• Base and mobility — leg count, base diameter, castor size and brake preference.
• Material and finish — stainless steel, powder-coated colour or moulded base colour.
• Branding and packaging — logo, label, instruction sheet and carton marking requirements.
• Destination market — so documentation and packaging text suit the target region.

Related Products From Our Range

IV poles are usually ordered alongside other ward furniture and consumables. Our hospital furniture line covers bedside cabinets, accompany chairs, infusion chairs, waiting chairs and medical trolleys, and our consumables range includes Wound Dressing, Medical Tape and Jumbo Raw Material Roll for customers who also source dressing and tape materials.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you produce IV poles to our own specification?

Yes. We work as an OEM/ODM factory, so tube length, hook pattern, base style, castor type, colour, logo and packaging can all be produced to your drawing or sample. We confirm the specification in writing before production begins.

What is the minimum order quantity for IV poles?

MOQ depends on the configuration and whether custom tooling or custom packaging is involved. Standard configurations carry a lower minimum than fully customised bases or printed packaging. Share your target quantity and we will confirm the applicable minimum with the quotation.

Which materials are available for the stand and base?

Stainless steel and powder-coated steel are the standard tube options, with ABS or PP moulded bases. The choice is normally driven by cleaning routine, expected service life and the finish required to match existing ward furniture.

Do you supply spare parts such as castors and hooks?

Spare castors, hook assemblies and locking components can be supplied as separate items so that stands remain serviceable over their working life. We recommend listing the parts you expect to stock when the order is placed.

How is the product packed for export?

Stands are normally supplied knocked down with the base and tube sections packed to reduce carton volume, together with fittings and an instruction sheet. Carton marking, labelling and retail packaging can be produced to your requirements.

What quality documentation is available?

Our quality system operates to ISO 13485:2016, most products are CE certified, and our Suzhou factories comply with FDA requirements. Inspection records, retained samples and traceability documentation are maintained through production.
