“At QuidelOrtho, we embrace a culture of relentless improvement. With the startup of our second distribution center in the United States, we’re making great strides in maintaining and enhancing a truly robust supply chain approach to distribute our products,” said Phil McLellan, Senior Vice President, Operations, QuidelOrtho. “This milestone underscores our dedication to operational excellence and responsiveness to customer feedback.”

QuidelOrtho values sustainable growth and establishing eco-friendly supply chains, also moving to greener packaging for some of its shipments. Its supply chain team has tested a new, paper-based insulation that is fully “curbside” recyclable. While the new packaging will not span across every shipment type, it is expected to positively impact an estimated 15-20% of QuidelOrtho’s domestic shipments, transitioning over the next several months in the United States.

“Building upon our responsible resource management, we are proud of this step toward reducing our environmental footprint,” said Mr. McLellan. “By embracing innovative solutions and fostering a culture of continuous improvement, we’re promoting operational excellence and environmental stewardship.”
