About the company: Founded in 1931 as the Don Baxter Intravenous Products Corp. by two doctors — Ralph Falk and Don Baxter — Baxter was the first commercial manufacturer of prepared IV solutions and developed the Transfuso-Vac container for blood collection and storage, allowing for blood bank storage of up to three weeks. Baxter Laboratories, as it later called itself, opened its first manufacturing facility in a former auto showroom in Glenview, Illinois. Baxter now provides a broad portfolio of essential healthcare products, including acute and chronic dialysis therapies, sterile intravenous solutions, infusion systems and devices, parenteral nutrition therapies, inhaled anesthetics, generic injectable pharmaceuticals, and surgical hemostat and sealant products. Baxter’s customers are hospitals, kidney dialysis centers, nursing homes, rehabilitation centers, doctors’ offices and patients at home under physician supervision. The Deerfield, Illinois-based company manufactures products in more than 20 countries and sells them in more than 100 countries. Baxter remains on track to complete its $12.4 billion acquisition of Hillrom, which is expected to close in 2022.  –JH
