Good day, and thank you for standing by. Welcome to the Q1 West Pharmaceutical Services earnings conference call. [Operator instructions]. I would now like to hand the conference over to your speaker today, Quintin Lai, vice president of investor relations.
Please go ahead.
Quintin Lai -- Vice President, Investor Relations
Thank you, Didi. Good morning, and welcome to West's first quarter 2022 conference call. We issued our financial results this morning, and the release has been posted in the investors section on the company's website located at westpharma.com. This morning, CEO, Eric Green; and CFO, Bernard Birkett, will review our financial results, provide an update on our business and present an update on our financial outlook for the full year of 2022.
There's a slide presentation that accompanies today's call and a copy of that presentation is available on the investors section of our website. On Slide 4 is our safe harbor statement. Statements made by management on this call and in the accompanying presentation contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of U.S. federal securities law.
These statements are based on our beliefs and assumptions, current expectations, estimates and forecasts. Future results are influenced by many factors beyond the control of the company. Actual results could differ materially from past results as well as those expressed or implied in any forward-looking statement made here. Please refer to today's press release as well as any other disclosures made by the company regarding the risk to which it is subject, including our 10-K, 10-Q, and 8-K reports.
During today's call, management will make reference to non-GAAP financial measures, including organic sales growth, adjusted operating profit, adjusted operating profit margin, and adjusted diluted EPS. Reconciliations and limitations of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable financial results prepared in conformity to GAAP are provided in this morning's earnings release. I now turn the call over to West CEO and president, Eric Green. Eric?
Eric Green -- Chief Executive Officer
Thank you, Quintin, and good morning, everyone. Thanks for joining us today. We will start on Slide 5. I'm pleased to report that we delivered a strong first quarter.
This was driven by double-digit organic sales growth with increasing demand for our high-value products. Our confirmed order book for the rest of 2022 and into 2023 remains as strong as ever, primarily driven by non-COVID-based business. And to provide you more color, over half of the order book is coming from biologics demand. These results were delivered despite several macroeconomic challenges that are impacting all companies and sectors.
