From prototype to product
Proplast makes extruded plastic hoses, tubes, profiles, and belts. We produce a wide range of materials and products, and we offer tailor-made solutions. We call this "fit-for-purpose".
Our specialist skills help to ensure coherence in the process from idea to prototype to finished product. In the process, we collaborate closely with you to evaluate the prototype through our consultancy on design and material selection.
In this way, we take it upon us that you get a unique product that is designed according to your needs.
Our consultancy team has an unrivalled insight on and experience in both production processes and raw materials.
In addition, we work closely with the leading raw material suppliers in Europe to ensure breadth and depth in our range.

Spirals
Proplast specializes in manufacturing spiralized hoses in a range of materials that meet demands for flexibility and functionality, be it the length of free ends, the circumference of the spiral, or its working length.
The spirals are produced from hoses from our in-house production, which provides optimal flexibility in planning and production. The dimensions depend on the material but range from a hose diameter of 4 to 16 mm and a working length of the spiral from 2 to 15 meters.
Proplast also offers multispirals, giving you the opportunity to combine different materials, colours, dimensions, and lengths in the spiral.
Based on a responsible use of plastic, our "fit-for-purpose" principle aims to ensure an optimal solution. At the same time, we focus on functionality and the environmental perspective in a collaboration with you.
APPLICATION:
Pneumatics, automotive industries (garages), brake hoses (air), chemical industries, food industries, and general industrial purposes.

In a joint effort with the French manufacturer ARKEMA, we have developed the material TCP for conveyor belt profiles, which are characterized by high wear and tear resistance, low friction, operating temperatures of over 100˚ C, and a low thermal expansion.
In a collaboration with you, we analyse requirements and conditions of use in order to advise on the choice of material and design. It helps to ensure that the product meets requirements of characteristics, functionality, and price
APPLICATION:
Our profiles are used for various purposes but are mainly applied where low friction and a wear and tear resistance are required, e.g., for conveyor belts. We also make profiles for the pharmaceutical and food industries as well as for several other industrial purposes.
Our range includes, among other things:
- Polyamides (PA11, PA12, PA6, PA66 og PA alloy)
- Elastomers (TPU, TPV, TPE)
