PLASTICBAND®

Nothing defines us better than our trajectory

A LITTLE OF OUR HISTORY

Consistency and wanting to do things well is the way to continually improve.

In 1978, a company idea was born that was already different. Its founders, two young engineers, had the vision of developing a different, light and ecological plastic strap. It was globalization and the increased competitiveness of companies that prompted these two entrepreneurs to design packaging machinery. In 1983 Plasticband® manufactures the first package strapping machines, innovates by being the first to offer printed strapping to customers and exports begin. In 1989, the first orbital wrappersappeared. Continuing with the values ​​of the founders, with the idea of ​​innovating and continuous improvement, in 2009 we implemented the system Lean Manufacturing, the soul of our evolution. In 2011 we acquired the legendary brand of pallet strapping machines MATURI®, present in the market since 1962. The incorporation of our Know-how to the brand allowed us to technologically update this equipment and relaunch it worldwide, with the 3rd generation of strapping machines.
