Ivan Packham founded Brotec, a plastic tubing extrusion business with a concentration in the pneumatics industry, in 1989. Packham had previously invented the extrusion of Nylon11 in Adelaide, South Australia, in the early 1960s. Today, Brotec is one of Australia's top manufacturers of plastic extrusions and continues to supply a variety of sectors with high-quality plastic tubing. Brotec is still dedicated to providing the individualized service that was established in 1989, despite the fact that our products and services, manufacturing capacity and capability, and customer portfolio have all grown since then. In fact, Brotec is pleased to report that many of our original clients are still among our most devoted patrons today, decades after we first started plastic extrusion.

Ivan Packham mentored his family members in this specialized industry, guaranteeing that high-quality nylon and polyethylene tubing would continue to be produced.
