The 100% fresh fiber-based ProVantage Powerflute® retains its properties better than any other virgin medium grade in the industry when exposed to load-in variable climatic conditions for longer periods. Thanks to this outstanding creep performance, your boxes are safer to handle, stack and store, providing optimal protection of your customers’ goods. This makes ProVantage Powerflute® your product of choice, particularly for long-distance transport.
