Baxter Suppliers

Our mission to save and sustain lives carries through our supplier base.

"Baxter works hard to establish partnerships with suppliers to integrate environmental and social factors in our Global Procurement process. We engage with suppliers on key corporate responsibility issues, including human rights, health and safety, business ethics, labor practices and environmental performance. We continue to focus on identifying opportunities with diverse suppliers and have expanded green transport partnerships around the world. Our goal is to optimize and integrate our distribution networks using innovative technology and sustainable practices."

• Global Supply Chain Standards:  Baxter endorses and strongly supports the GS1 standards for healthcare. We believe that industry-wide adoption of these standards will improve patient safety and drive increased efficiency and integrity.
   
• Trade Compliance: We place a high priority on compliance with laws regulating exports, imports, and supply chain security.  Our compliance responsibilities include appropriate screening and contractual and security requirements that agents, distributors, suppliers, and other parties doing business with us must meet. In addition to meeting Baxter’s requirements, the agents, distributors, suppliers, and other parties doing business with or representing Baxter are also expected to comply with the letter and spirit of all applicable laws regulating exports, imports, and supply chain security.
   
• Responsible Procurement & Logistics: Our global supply chain extends from the producers of raw materials utilized in manufacturing to the end users of its products. Our company is committed to building and driving a responsible supply chain.
