Baxter Worldwide
At Baxter Healthcare, our mission is to make a meaningful difference in patients’ lives. In one way or another, this has been our focus for more than 75 years.
In over 110 countries we have made a big difference to patients through continual research and development to develop and improve products and therapies that save and sustain their lives, thus giving them quality of life with their families.
We have made a difference to the economies of these countries by our investment in jobs, infrastructure and technology and the supply of medical products and therapies. In Australia and New Zealand, we have invested more than $125 million in our facilities.
We make a meaningful difference by operating our business in an environmentally sustainable way. By 2010, we aim to reduce our carbon footprint by 35 per cent.
And we make a difference in the lives of the patients in Australia and New Zealand who depend on our products for their survival or quality of life.
We are proud of our heritage and of the lifesaving role we play in our region. Indeed we are proud of our position as leader in our industry and of the many high-quality products we supply to the healthcare sector.
Most importantly we are determined to continue harnessing the resources, energy and talent of our company and employees to deliver better and better outcomes for the thousands of people for whom we genuinely make a difference, every day.
Baxter Australia and New Zealand
Baxter develops, manufactures and markets products that save and sustain the lives of people with haemophilia, immune disorders, infectious diseases, kidney disease, trauma, and other chronic and acute medical conditions.
We have been part of the Australian healthcare industry for more than 40 years and in New Zealand for more than 30 years.
During this time the company has made a significant investment to both local economies.
In the ANZ region, we employ more than 1000 people at 17 sites. Our operations are focused around five key areas: Renal, BioScience, Medication Delivery, Pharmacy and Manufacturing.
Our commitment to environmental management is exemplified by our continuous commitment to reduce water, gas energy, landfill and electricity consumption.
Baxter supports many community and patient programs and provides funding for the continuation of medical education and research. The 2008 spend in ANZ for grants, donations and sponsorships totalled more than $1.5 million.
