SHL Group is proud to introduce SHL Pharma, a facility built with a greener approach providing final assembly, labelling and packaging services of drug delivery devices such as autoinjectors for the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries.

The addition of SHL Pharma means SHL can now take projects from design to distribution, providing a business model that makes even more sense for customers. To ensure the automation equipment in-house is designed to accommodate specific assembly needs, many of the machines have also been built by SHL Automation. As a result, special details related to the device’s assembly can be communicated and integrated into the machine design.

Constructed with LEED practices

Promoting greener concepts and implementations is an ongoing effort at SHL and can be seen at the brand new SHL Pharma facility, where LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) guidelines have been implemented.

Some of the many LEED practices we are focusing on include the following:

  • Optimising energy performance
  • Encouraging alternative transportation
  • Water use reduction
  • Construction waste management
  • Indoor air quality / low-emitting material
  • Rapidly renewable materials

It is part of SHL’s company strategy to be an environmentally responsible corporation and we will continue to encourage and develop new improvement goals for our global operations to incorporate sustainable practices wherever and whenever possible.
