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.

Applications

The Vertical Wafer Shipper is used across semiconductor manufacturing and logistics where ultra-clean, secure transport is required.

  • Wafer transport – Safe delivery of 100 mm to 200 mm wafers between fabs and OSAT partners
  • Cleanroom storage – Particle-controlled interim holding of unprocessed or processed wafers
  • IC packaging lines – Transfer of wafers between process stations or to packaging environments
  • Washing and inspection workflows – Pre-cleaned containers for clean entry into sensitive zones
  • ESD-sensitive applications – Handling of static-sensitive wafers in controlled environments

Features

The Vertical Wafer Shipper is engineered for secure, particle-minimized wafer handling in clean and ESD-controlled environments.
