Frequently Asked Questions

What pallet specifications do FDA-regulated facilities in Fairhope require?

FDA cGMP regulations don't mandate a specific pallet type, but require pallets to be clean, in good repair, and not a source of contamination. In practice, Fairhope pharma facilities typically specify: new wood block pallets (GMA 48x40), plastic pallets for sterile zones, documented supplier qualification, and heat treated pallets for international distribution. We supply all variants with full documentation.

Why do pharmaceutical companies prefer block pallets in Fairhope?

Block pallets offer several advantages for pharma operations: true 4-way forklift and pallet jack entry (flexibility in narrow-aisle DC environments), solid bottom deck boards (prevents product contact with floor), higher load capacity for heavy pharmaceutical containers, and easier visual inspection during GMP audits. Block pallets are the pharmaceutical industry standard in Europe and increasingly preferred in US pharma DCs.
