The FRIKE GROUP is the largest independent contract manufacturer in Switzerland and produces private label products and branded products for national and international customers. As a complete system provider, our core expertise lies in developing innovative, sustainable products and manufacturing them together with bulk production, filling, packing and regulatory services.

From sourcing to shipping and everything in between: As a contract manufacturer, we offer you a complete service. Each of our five locations has its own development laboratory, so we can guarantee high Swiss-made productivity and comprehensive expertise.

Contract filler of aerosols and more

The specific expertise involved in the contract filling of aerosols is not widespread in Switzerland. We have built up and continuously expanded this knowledge over decades. At our aerosol production facilities, we manufacture small batches and large quantities of technical chemical products and cosmetic products in spray cans. Our development laboratory draws upon its in-depth expertise and many years of experience in the development and optimization of customer-specific aerosol formulations.

Full service from development to production.

Whether you’re looking for inspiration for new products, advice on regulatory issues or help with optimally tailored packaging design, needs-based services are a feature of all our customer projects.

Development

One of our core areas of expertise is developing and honing new formulations. We also check existing formulations for compliance on an ongoing basis, with a view to reformulating them if necessary.

Efficiency and high quality are central to our bulk production of large and small product series. Our innovative machinery enables us to manufacture products in a wide variety of galenic forms.

Filling

Whether they are aerosols, creams, oils or powders, the FRIKE GROUP specializes in the filling of all manner of liquid and solid products. This also extends to an array of packaging shapes and sizes.
