Requirements for Pharmaceutical Logistics
Logistical requirements in the pharmaceutical industry are particularly stringent. It is essential that products and ingredients are fully traceable at all times. Pallets and containers made from virgin, first-grade material must meet the highest hygiene standards (cleanroom) requirements. They must be easy to clean and must not attract or retain dirt. In addition, it is crucial that these load carriers are optimized for automated systems and conveyor equipment to ensure efficient and safe operations.

For the Highest Standards in the Pharmaceutical Industry
For many years, Arcawa has supplied pallets and containers specifically developed to meet the demanding requirements of the pharmaceutical industry. Optional logo printing, sequential numbering, and RFID integration enable seamless traceability and unit/load control. Our load carriers comply with all international standards for hygienic pallets and pallet boxes, ensuring proven quality and reliability.
Made from food-grade HDPE/PP and free from problematic substances, our hygienic pallets and pallet boxes are not only safe but also extremely robust. The closed surfaces are easy to clean, leaving germs no chance—an invaluable advantage in the pharmaceutical industry. In addition, our load carriers are optimized for automated systems and offer an impressive load capacity of up to 1,000 kg in racking. For semi-hygienic requirements, some load carriers are also available in recycled material.
Innovation and Excellence: Arcawa’s Contribution to the Pharmaceutical Industry
Over the years, Arcawa has established itself as a trusted partner to the pharmaceutical industry. In close collaboration with international industry leaders such as Novartis, Roche, and Johnson & Johnson, numerous projects have been successfully delivered. Whatever direction the pharmaceutical industry’s needs take in the future, Arcawa will meet them. Our team stays up to date with ongoing changes in the sector and is committed to developing optimal solutions that exceed the requirements.
A standout example of how we put these high requirements into practice is the Arcawa Hygiene Pallet V3 in Euro pallet format.
This fully closed, high-quality hygiene pallet was developed specifically for demanding food and pharmaceutical applications and meets stringent requirements for hygiene, cleanability, and product safety. The V3 pallet is suitable for racking with a payload of up to 1,000 kg. It can be supplied in different versions, for example with or without a safety rim. As standard, the hygiene pallet is equipped with three runners. We can now also supply the V3 hygiene pallet with closed runners or—depending on the application—as a 9-leg hygiene pallet.
All Arcawa hygiene pallets are available in various colors. From an order quantity of around 500 units, the pallet can also be produced in your company’s individual color. Moreover, we can print the pallets with your logo or company name and, if needed, also add sequential numbering for clear traceability.
