Vertical Wafer Shipper
Clean, compact, and secure transport solution for semiconductor wafers.
Combines particle control, ergonomic handling, and cleanroom compatibility for efficient wafer logistics.
Contamination-Free Vertical Wafer Handling for Semiconductor Manufacturing and Logistics
The Vertical Wafer Shipper from NAGASE provides contamination-controlled, ergonomic packaging for semiconductor wafers. Designed for vertical storage and transport, it minimizes mechanical stress and particle generation through features like individual horizontal cantilever springs and the use of WaferGrade™ polypropylene.
With capacity options ranging from 1 to 25 wafers, the shipper supports wafer diameters of 100 mm, 150 mm, and 200 mm. Additional benefits include cleanroom washing, vacuum-sealed double bagging, and an intuitive latching mechanism for secure and simple handling.
NAGASE supplies vertical wafer shippers globally for semiconductor fabs, foundries, and OEM partners – with full integration into cleanroom protocols and automated handling systems.
