P ropack, Italy, specialises in the design, production and distribution of pack- ing, packaging products and systems. The company was initially involved in the distribution of traditional packing products, and has since branched into the sector of safety packing, designed to protect all types of manufactured goods in the severest transport and storage conditions. The company has developed Propaflex, to guarantee high quality protection for all products sold in rolls. Propaflex is a plastic sheet, extruded so as to obtain two different surfaces: the inner surface High protection packaging

is smooth and adheres perfectly and evenly to rounded surfaces, protecting them in the most effective manner; the outer surface is specially undulated to reduce friction with other materials, and is capable of withstanding violent impact, heavy weight, shock or compression. Propack was one of the first companies to be certified to standard UNI EN ISO 9001- 2000 for the design and manufacture of materials, devices and accessories to protect and prevent damage to finished products during transport and storage. Propaflex is designed to satisfy the needs of steelmakers and cable manufacturers, but is also suitable for use in many other manufacturing industries. Propack has selected a range of products which, together with those produced internally, enable them to offer a complete, comprehensive service and the most effective, advanced solutions for all packing and shipping problems
