OneKedrion

The new Kedrion's exciting challenge: uniting two legacies to form a new and unified entity.

Kedrion's significant challenge has been to combine an Italian family-owned business with a UK-based company, each with its own decades-long legacy, to form a strong and unified entity: a new Kedrion.

The new Kedrion is more than a business, but it is a community of dedicated people, sharing a set of values and a mission.

Our mission is to help others around the world suffering from serious and rare health conditions, embodying the Journey of Science and Humanity. Of course, this community includes not just those in Italy and the UK, but colleagues in Canada (coming from their own proud company, Prometic); in the US, our largest and fastest growing market; in Hungary, where one of our plants recently celebrated its 100th year of operation; in Europe and South America.

We are a global company with a universal mission. We call this effort OneKedrion.

When two companies come together, it is always a matter first of cultural integration. And cultural integration starts with sharing the same values every day.

Sharing values is the key to creating a sense of community.

To decide on the values that we would publicly commit to, particularly as we aimed to unite and expand as one new Kedrion, we surveyed all our employees for their input.

We felt that the best way to encourage a feeling of community was to identify shared values; not ones imposed by the company, but ones identified by our people. After all, discovering already shared values is a powerful way to begin a partnership, a friendship, or a community.

Our values through our colleagues' eyes

Since our values have been developed collectively from the ground up, we want to give our colleagues around the world a voice to explain what these values mean to them. We are the primary advocates of these values, ensuring they resonate throughout our organization as our true cornerstone.

These values were presented formally at an “All Hands” meeting in early 2024, which looked back on the year of integration and forward as the new Kedrion.

The first meeting aimed at bringing all employees around the world together in a single forum, a powerful expression of OneKedrion. These meetings will become a regular opportunity for members of the Kedrion community at all levels to speak, listen, and act together.
