KLIKO Rotary Loaders (license KUKA)

    The Klinkenberg and Koster families built KUKA rotary refuse bodies under license using the acronym KLIKO. The Type 210 and 215 "Shark" bodies appear to have been the most common. The company was instrumental in the change to plastic wheeled containers in The Netherlands during the late 1970s, and the bins are often called "Klikos" in that country. After the merging of the KUKA and FAUN brands in 1983, KLIKO continued on for a few more years with versions of the Type 205 Rotopress.
