Hospital Bassinets & Maternity Carts
A hospital bassinet is a mobile newborn bed with built-in storage, designed for labour and delivery, postpartum and newborn nursery care. Cartstrong builds hospital bassinets and maternity carts from health-grade materials made for daily disinfection. Each one can be configured to your unit’s drawer layout, locks, finish and room size.
- Wood-grain laminate, antimicrobial and stainless steel hospital bassinets
- Standard and compact sizes, plus custom dimensions
- Matching delivery carts and fetal monitor carts for a consistent birthing room
Types of Hospital Bassinets & Maternity Carts
Standard Hospital Bassinets keep newborns clearly visible, with drawers or doors below for supplies. The standard size is 34″ W × 21″ D × 37.5″ H, with soft-close drawer slides, stainless steel handles and 5″ casters (two locking, two non-locking).
Compact Bassinets suit tighter rooms and postpartum suites. The compact size is 35.5″ W × 32.5″ D × 22″ H.
Antimicrobial Bassinets and Stainless Steel Bassinets serve units with stricter infection prevention priorities.
Delivery Carts and Fetal Monitor Carts keep birth supplies and monitoring equipment organized in labour and delivery. Electronic or key locks are available.
Bassinet options include a polycarbonate tub, mattress pad, chart holder, slide-out writing surface and drawer dividers. New to specifying bassinets? Read our hospital bassinet guide

Hospital Bassinet Materials and Infection Control
CDC guidance recommends that hospitals regularly clean and disinfect equipment surfaces with EPA-registered disinfectants, following manufacturers’ instructions. That makes material choice one of the most important decisions for a newborn hospital bassinet. Cartstrong bassinets come in three main materials:
| Material | Best suited for |
|---|---|
| Health-grade laminate | Labor and delivery, postpartum and nursery rooms; available in five wood-grain finishes: Kensington Maple, Candlelight, Acajou Mahogany, Amber Cherry and Chocolate Pear Tree |
| Antimicrobial (Biosafe® additive) | High-touch maternity areas; the additive protects the surface itself but doesn’t replace routine cleaning |
| Stainless steel | High-demand units that need maximum durability; tested against healthcare germicidal solutions |
Thermofoil and Kydex are also available.
Equip your maternity unit with bassinets and carts that work together.
A birthing room runs more smoothly when every piece fits the same workflow. When your hospital bassinets, delivery carts and fetal monitor carts share the same finishes, materials and build quality, rooms look consistent and nurses know exactly where supplies are. Every Cartstrong cart is built for the 24/7/365 demands of healthcare, tested to withstand healthcare germicidal solutions and backed by a standard 5-year warranty. Complete your unit with matching solutions such as:
- Hospital bassinets
- Delivery carts
- Fetal monitor carts
- NICU carts
- Bedside cabinets
- Antimicrobial carts
- Stainless steel carts
- Custom carts
