InkJet, Inc. has begun operating as Cyklop U.S. Cyklop is a global packaging leader that has expanded in recent years by acquiring companies such as InkJet to expand its packaging, coding, and marking solutions.

InkJet was founded in 1989 as a manufacturer of aftermarket industrial inks. Over the years, the company expanded and garnered international recognition for its outstanding ink formulation and customer service. In 2023, InkJet became part of Cyklop International and has transformed over the last two years into a comprehensive provider of packaging solutions. Cyklop U.S. employs 55 people who support customers in the food packaging, beverage and bottling, chemical packaging, personal care packaging, pet food manufacturing, metal and steel, and aerospace industry sectors.

“It’s an exciting time to be part of Cyklop – whether as a team member or a customer benefiting from our solutions. With our continued growth across Mexico, Canada, and the U.S., we’re bringing our expertise and quality systems to even more organizations. And now, with a refreshed brand backed by over 100 years of history, we’re creating stronger unity not just in the U.S., but across our global network,” said Erivelto Gadioli, president, Americas, for Cyklop.

Cyklop offers the following categories of products and services for a wide arrange of industries:

  • Marking and Coding
  • Inks and Fluids
  • Print and Apply
  • Strapping
  • Wrapping
  • Taping
  • Binding
  • Packaging Consumables

“For over 35 years, we’ve supported manufacturers and OEMs (original equipment manufacturers) with trusted solutions. Today, our expanded product offerings and capabilities take that support even further,” said Jeane Schalm, managing director of Cyklop U.S. “It’s an exciting time for our long-time customers and the new partners that we’re welcoming because of Cyklop’s packaging solutions and services. Having a single packaging supplier that’s also an expert in coding and marking brings real, measurable value.”

Schalm has been leading InkJet as its managing director since August 2020. She previously served as InkJet’s vice president of operations and development for four years.

Cyklop Brand Integration

InkJet's name and brand will migrate over the next year, starting with email addresses, and marketing channels like LinkedIn and the website – all of which is being supported by advertising campaigns.

“Although InkJet’s name and logo are changing to Cyklop, our commitment to our customers remains unwavering,” said Marc Berger, chief marketing officer at Cyklop and former director of marketing at InkJet. “This alignment with the global Cyklop brand marks a meaningful new chapter. The InkJet team is fully embracing Cyklop’s mission and values while continuing to deliver the trusted products, expert support, and exceptional service our customers know and rely upon.”
