Healthcare 3PL for Medical Device and Diagnostic Companies
Regulated Warehousing, Kit Assembly, and Fulfillment Built by People Who Come From the Lab
Supera is a 3PL that manufactures. Where a standard 3PL stores and ships finished goods, we assemble the medical kits themselves in an ISO 7 cleanroom under ISO 13485, then handle fulfillment and distribution.
We are FDA-registered and ISO 13485 certified, with ISO 7 cleanroom capabilities. Since 2020, we have served more than 200 laboratory clients, diagnostic companies, and medical device manufacturers across the United States.
What Healthcare 3PL Actually Means — And Why It's Different
General third-party logistics handles boxes. Healthcare 3PL handles regulated products where a fulfillment error doesn’t just create a bad customer experience — it can compromise a patient’s diagnostic result, trigger an FDA audit, or cause a product recall.
A compliant healthcare 3PL provider manages the full downstream supply chain for medical and diagnostic products: inbound receiving with lot verification, climate-controlled storage, kit assembly in controlled environments, order fulfillment with full traceability, and compliant distribution to labs, clinics, or end consumers.
What separates healthcare 3PL from standard logistics is the quality infrastructure behind every operation — the SOPs, the environmental monitoring, the certificate of analysis management, and the audit-ready documentation that regulated industries require.
At Supera, every one of those systems was built by people who came from the laboratory side of healthcare — not from general warehousing. That’s a meaningful difference.
Our Healthcare 3PL Services
Medical Device Warehousing Secure, climate-monitored storage in our FDA-registered Houston facility. We maintain lot segregation, expiration date tracking, and environmental controls appropriate for diagnostic consumables and medical devices.
Specimen Collection Kit Assembly We assemble multi-component diagnostic kits in our ISO 7 cleanroom environment. From swabs and transport media to blood collection tubes and stabilization kits, each assembly follows validated SOPs with quality sign-off before shipment.
Order Fulfillment and Distribution We process and ship orders to diagnostic labs, hospitals, physician offices, and direct-to-consumer recipients across all 50 states. Same-day fulfillment is available for orders received by our daily cutoff, with 24/7 emergency support for urgent needs.
Inventory Management Real-time visibility into your stock levels, lot numbers, and expiration dates. We flag reorder thresholds, manage FEFO (first expired, first out) rotation, and provide reporting on inventory turns so you can make supply chain decisions with accurate data.
Aliquoting and Reagent Fill Using Hamilton STAR automated liquid handling systems, we perform precision aliquoting of reagents and liquid components into labeled tubes or vials — a capability most healthcare 3PL providers don’t offer.
Returns and Complaint Handling Compliant returns processing with proper segregation, documentation, and escalation to your quality team when required. We maintain complaint records and support your post-market surveillance requirements.

Who We Serve
Our healthcare 3PL services are built for organizations where diagnostic accuracy and regulatory compliance are non-negotiable:
- Diagnostic test manufacturers scaling from pilot programs to commercial distribution
- Clinical laboratories outsourcing their kit supply and fulfillment operations
- Medical device companies needing an FDA-registered 3PL partner without building their own facility
- At-home testing brands requiring direct-to-consumer fulfillment with proper chain of custody
- Clinical research organizations managing specimen collection kit programs across multiple sites
We work with programs as small as a few hundred units per month and as large as tens of thousands of kits monthly. No minimum volume requirement.
Why Supera
Most healthcare 3PL providers come from general logistics and learned regulated fulfillment as a service add-on. Supera was built from inside the laboratory.
Our founder spent 25 years managing clinical lab operations before starting Supera Fulfillment. She understood the downstream consequences of a mis-assembled kit, an expired tube in an active lot, or a chain of custody gap before she ever ran a warehouse. That background is embedded in every SOP we operate under.
As a woman-owned business headquartered in Houston, Texas, we respond to every inquiry the same day. We have 24/7 emergency availability for supply chain disruptions, outbreak responses, and urgent program launches. Our clients — including reference labs, specialty testing companies, and DTC diagnostics brands — don’t get handed off to a call center. They work directly with the people managing their inventory.
Our credentials: FDA-registered facility, ISO 13485 certified quality management system, ISO 7 cleanroom, 200+ laboratory clients served, 100% order accuracy commitment.
