PROPAFLEX
Uper-resistant, all-around protection!
PROPAFLEX is an innovative product designed and patented by Propagroup to guarantee a total and a high quality protection for all products sold in rolls and not only, like cables and stainless steel coils, but also for all other surfaces.
PROPAFLEX is a plastic sheet made thanks to recycled materials from circular economy and to a special production process to obtain two different surfaces:
- the inner surface is smooth and perfectly adheres even to rounded surfaces, protecting them with the maximum efficacy.
- the outer surface is specially corrugated in order to reduce friction with other materials, but above all is capable of withstanding violent impacts, heavy weights, shocks or compressions without any problem.
PROPAFLEX is designed to satisfy the needs of the major steelmakers and the most important cable manufacturers in the world, but it can also be adopted in the building industry, in fields like architecture and interior design, and in many other manufacturing industries applications such as tubes and tube bundles production.
PROPAFLEX is:
- 100% recyclable
- Standard or personalized printing treated anti-UV
- Flexible in all directions
- Very resistant to shocks
- Resistant to compression
- Waterproof
- Weldable
- Oil-repellent
- Weatherproof
- Easy to apply
- Safe
- Light
CERTIFICATIONS AND REGULATIONS
PROPAFLEX is certified according to Hamburg BFSV standard for cable protection.
PROPAFIX
The self-sizing corner protection
PROPAFIX is a definitely innovative edge protection patented by Propagroup, to fix and protect goods during transport and storage.
The big advantage of PROPAFIX compared to the corner protections sold on the market so far, is its great adaptability to all packing sizes. PROPAFIX could be defined as “self-sizing” corner protection.
Thanks to its easy-to-cut profiled flaps, the user can choose the best length for protecting the container, steel coils and reels to be handled, according to the needs.
PROPAFIX is rigid and resistant but, thanks to its flexibility, it can also be used to protect irregular shapes such as polygons, triangles, parallelepipeds and even rounded shapes.
It is also suitable for protecting three-dimensionally: after cutting a flap you just have to cut the opposite one to obtain a perpendicular fold to the axis of protection of the previous one.
PROPAFIX is made with completely recyclable materials, thus solving waste disposal problems both for the user and the end recipient. To cut PROPAFIX to measure, you only need a simple cutter or a pair of scissors in your pocket.With PROPAFIX there will no longer be any need of corner protections of different dimensions on stock because all the required sizes can be obtained from a single piece: this is truly a big advantage in terms of reducing stock and saving storage space.
PROPAFIX is also available with asymmetric flaps measuring respectively 60 mm and 100 mm, thus allowing you to choose the positioning according to your current needs. In the sheet steel sector, for example, you will often find packs of different sizes, with pallet heights almost below 100 mm.
With PROPAFIX you can cut and fold according to the shape and size of the pack of sheets. The wider flap is meant to protect the pack vertically, allowing to cover and protect the entire content of the pallet, from the top sheet to the one resting on the pallet.
PROPAFIX TX: is an innovative version of Propafix suitable to protect inner and outer edge of steel coils and other material in reels. It can be supplied with a handy dispenser to make the application easier.
PROPASHEET
Not just a pallet!
PROPASHEET is a Slip Sheet made in Compact Fiber and it is the winning solution to reduce the volumes, weights and the costs in all dispatch, storage and handling operations.
The compact fibre composition of the PROPASHEET makes them naturally moisture repellent, guaranteeing their mechanical resistance even after sea transport by container.
PROPASHEET is produced with eco-sustainable raw materials and it is completely recyclable, so environmentally friendly.
PROPASHEET costs 4-5 times less than traditional pallets, is sturdy and lightweight and occupy less space.
Thanks to these characteristics, with PROPASHEET you can optimally exploit shipping space, reduce transport costs and optimize internal stock management:
500 PROPASHEET OCCUPY THE SAME SPACE AS 10 PALLETS!
PROPASHEET eliminates traditional problems associated with pallets, such as nails sticking out, blocked entryways, products that do not fit properly and defective construction, so it also eliminates the main causes of complaints about damaged materials as well. With Slip Sheets you can also avoid fumigating wood problem, required in many countries.
PROPASHEET is available in the following versions:
- one-way or multi-way version
- reinforced for special applications
- with non-slip coatings or additional protection to make it water-repellent
- with corners that fit together to form a tray
PROPASHEET can be custom-made so that it can effectively meet a whole range of strength requirements and handling needs.
PROPASHEET is resistant to tears, thanks to a special method that optimizes longitudinal and transversal strength, and to humidity, due to a waterproofing treatment.
PROPASHEET can be immediately used with a simple conversion of traditional forklift trucks, which may be easily reconverted in a few simple steps.
On request PROPASHEET can be produced in plastic material.

Why use anti-slip paper?
Goodbye collapsed pallets, damaged products, and dissatisfied customers. Optimize transport with anti-slip paper.
Palletizing and transporting your products are crucial to the performance, efficiency and finances of your business.
Say goodbye to frustration, damage during transport and financial losses. Unstable and unsafe transport belongs to the past. With our anti-slip paper, your goods are stable and safe during transport. The anti-slip coating ensures that the products remain on the pallet during the entire journey from production to the end customer. The paper is used between the layers of products on the pallet and can be supplied in pre-cut sheets or in reels, depending on the type of paper and your specific requirements.
Anti-slip paper.
The main purpose of our anti-slip paper is to stabilize the products on the pallet so that they arrive at their destination in the same condition as when they left the warehouse. Propagroup offers a wide selection of anti-slip interlayers. The choice of paper type depends on your needs and the items to be palletized. We will guide you to the right choice.
Thanks to the anti-slip treatment of the paper, your palletized finished products remain stable in the warehouse and during transport, guaranteeing trouble-free deliveries and satisfied customers.
Our anti-slip paper is 100% recyclable and bears the PAP-22 environmental label. The recycling pictogram certifies that the product is fully recyclable and must be properly treated and disposed of.
Recommended use: heavy, slippery or challenging items.
Less friction, same function. The friction lining is applied in diagonal strips.
Recommended use: boxes with large contact surfaces, lighter items or similar.
Minimize pallet collapses and product damage; the pallet can be tilted by up to 50°.
Reduction of storage space by up to 90% – up to 5,000 sheets per roll.
Fewer deliveries means an optimized and less resource-intensive goods receipt process.
