What Klocke of America does

Klocke of America Inc. (Fort Myers, FL) is the US contract manufacturing arm of the family-owned Klocke Gruppe, founded in Germany in 1963 and operating 9 manufacturing locations with over 2,200 employees globally. The US subsidiary specializes in unit dose packaging solutions, producing thermoforms (blisters), sachets, stickpacks, and vial filling for liquids, creams, powders, solids, tablets, capsules, and accessories. Its technology portfolio includes proprietary architectures such as Dual Dispensing Thermoform, Mix A Dose thermoforms, Heat'N Dose thermoforms (powered by Exothermix), Dual Chamber Frangible Seal thermoforms, sponge and brush applicator formats, kickstand thermoforms, and injection-molded packages — many designed for on-demand consumer mixing, hygienic dosing, and interactive single-use experiences.

The business is B2B contract manufacturing sold directly to brand clients in beauty/personal care, medical devices, OTC pharma, health and wellness, ingestibles, pet care, and consumer products. Engagements are project-based and quote-based, with Klocke providing turn-key service from in-house prototyping through primary unit dose packaging and secondary packaging (cards, folding cartons, display packs) via a pre-qualified supply chain. The Fort Myers facility carries FDA registration, cGMP certification, BRC Certified "AA" rating, EPA registration, and GMP certification, which function as regulatory gateways into OTC pharma, CBD, and medical device packaging.

Revenue is generated through unit-dose contract manufacturing service fees and one-time project licensing arrangements; pricing is not publicly disclosed and varies by format, volume, and customization. The company markets via organic social channels, trade shows (Pack Expo International, Luxepack Los Angeles), and content/news updates, with no external funding, no public listing, and continuous Klocke family ownership and leadership across the group.
