Specialized packaging solutions for the
pharmaceutical industry

Efficient top-loading-
packaging solutions
for the
pharma sector

Precision. Flexibility. Safety.

Packaging solutions for the pharmaceutical industry demand the highest standards.
We develop modular top-loading machines for the secondary packaging process – designed to meet the requirements of regulated markets:

  • Reliable processes
  • Simple validation
  • GMP-compliant design
  • High system availability

Our systems handle folding cartons, trays and special formats with reliability and gentle product handling. Thanks to well-engineered interfaces and high modularity, they can be seamlessly integrated or flexibly scaled.

Together, we will find the right solution for your product.

Turnkey

End-to-end turnkey solutions -

covering product feeding, secondary and tertiary packaging and palletizing

Turnkey-packaging solutions from a single source

Single solution. Complete solution. Turnkey.

Our machines – cartoners, case packers and palletizers – can be operated individually or combined into a complete solution.
All components come from a single source and are precisely matched in terms of technology.

If additional upstream processes - such as infeeds, buffers, labellers, or inspection systems - not manufactured by Schubert need to be integrated, we take full responsibility for the overall system.

In such projects, we deliver a turnkey packaging solution that includes:

  • Planning
  • Interface coordination
  • Qualified handover of the entire line

For you, this means:

  • One point of contact
  • Clear responsibilities
  • A fully validatable packaging solution tailored exactly to your requirements

Packaging solutions
with reliable processes
for the pharma industry

Our reliable packaging solutions for pharmaceutical customers are based on a modular machine architecture and proven standard components. This enables precise planning and implementation of individual packaging tasks.

With our robot-supported TLM technology, we cover a broad spectrum of processes and functions. By seamlessly integrating individual functional units and other machines, we minimize interfaces and deliver a consistently stable, reliable, and secure packaging process.

Why Top-Loading? Benefits of the top-loading principle

Top-loading packaging systems enable particularly gentle and precise product handling – a decisive advantage in pharmaceutical production.
With vertical loading, different packaging materials can be processed efficiently, formats can be changed flexibly, and sensitive products such as vials, ampoules or syringes can be positioned securely.

In combination with our robots, vision systems ensure high packaging quality and maximum line availability with the top-loading principle. The systems are fully validatable, modularly expandable and optimally adaptable.

Schubert-Pharma at the trade show CPHI 2025 in Frankfurt

From October 28 to 30, 2025, visit us at Hall 9.0, Booth D50, to see our robot-based top-loading cartoner in action. This system is specifically designed to meet the unique needs of the pharmaceutical sector, ensuring the gentle handling of sensitive products while packaging them safely, quickly, and fully automatically.

Schubert-Pharma at trade show PackExpo 2025 in Las Vegas

From September 29 to October 1, 2025, Schubert-Pharma will present its latest top-loading solution for secondary pharmaceutical packaging at the Healthcare Packaging Pavilion (North Hall, Booth N-5224).

Live on site, the cartoner will demonstrate how pharmaceutical vials can be processed safely, efficiently, and in compliance with GMP – with outputs of up to 600 vials per minute, flexible packaging formats (1-, 3-, 5- and 10-count) and a line-clearance concept for quick batch changes. Visitors will be able to experience the entire process: from erecting cartons, inserting partitions and leaflets, to loading and sealing.

Schubert at Automation UK 2024

Last year, Automation UK took place for the first time in Coventry, England. As a result of its resounding success, the trade fair for automation and robotics is now entering its second round – and will be taking place this year on 18 and 19 June. Schubert UK Ltd will, of course, be participating once again. Schubert’s UK sales location was not only an exhibitor last year, but it is also a co-founder of Automation UK. In the CBS Arena at Stand F10, the British team, led by Mark Stepney, will be providing information on the Germany-based company’s latest highly flexible, efficient, and resource-saving solutions for packaging products of all kinds and from all sectors. This year, visitors to the Schubert stand will have an opportunity to view a tog.519 cobot live and in action. At Automation UK, the mobile robot will be demonstrating how it can pick & place unsorted products at speeds of up to 90 cycles per minute using the AI-supported vision system.

Safe and cost-efficient packaging of pharmaceutical products

After introducing a new medication to the market, it is always a challenge for pharmaceutical manufacturers to calculate production capacities without incurring economic losses. With support from machine manufacturer Schubert-Pharma and packaging specialist Faller Packaging, manufacturers now have two strong partners whose solutions can help minimise investment risk: With the right packaging, biopharmaceuticals can be produced reliably, efficiently and in the highest quality throughout the entire product lifecycle – thanks to solutions ranging from manual packaging to fully automated top-loading lines.
