New plant to expand customer base and PROCAP’s offerings in the region.

Early this year, PROCAP initiated it’s Customer Training Days concept. A first & second session was held in January of this year introducing customers to ‘A general Training in Plastic Closures’. The purpose of this training is to give our customers more insight into PROCAP and it’s expertise to develop, produce & sell plastic caps and closure systems with excellent and total service. PROCAP was very happy to welcome customers such as LESIEUR, AQUARIUS, JUVASA, CARGILL, MONSANTO, NESTLE, LACTALIS, and MC CORMICK. Additional training sessions will be organized in the near future. For more information, contact us.
