Case Study: When Precision Matters — Packaging That Reflects Diagnostic Excellence

Meridian Valley Lab Elevates Its Brand with Digitally Printed Packaging from SupplyOne

Since 1976, Meridian Valley Lab has been a trusted leader in integrative diagnostic testing, serving physicians and patients worldwide with a commitment to quality, accuracy, and innovation. As their reputation grew, so did the importance of ensuring their packaging reflected the same level of care and professionalism their lab services represent.

But as printing technology evolved, Meridian Valley Lab found itself at a crossroads.

For over a decade, Meridian Valley Lab relied on flexographic printing for their patient-facing testing kit boxes. But flexo has its limitations — restricted color options, reduced detail, and a growing inability to meet modern expectations for speed, customization, and brand clarity.

Worse, the flexo equipment previously used to produce their packaging was becoming outdated and inefficient — leading to longer lead times and higher costs.

That’s when they turned to SupplyOne.

At SupplyOne, we’re always looking for ways to help our partners move forward. Our digital printing capabilities offer unmatched flexibility, precision, and turnaround time — with no need for print plates and minimal setup costs.

We invited the Meridian Valley Lab team to explore our digital packaging production capabilities firsthand. After reviewing their artwork on our HP PageWide C500 press — a leader in post-print digital production for corrugated packaging — it was clear: digital printing delivered a superior result in every way.

  • Sharper detail and richer graphics
  • On-demand printing to better control inventory
  • Flexible volumes with faster lead times

The Result: Packaging That Works as Hard as They Do

Today, Meridian Valley Lab’s testing kit boxes are as high-quality as the testing they provide. By switching to SupplyOne’s digital printing solutions, they’ve enhanced their packaging’s visual appeal, gained operational efficiency, and positioned their supply chain to scale with their growth.

From better branding to smarter inventory management, this packaging shift did more than solve a problem — it opened new possibilities.
