Abstract: Net which, in the unfolded state, has the form of a central part provided at the petrify with a number of flaps. Nets of this type are used to fix articles on pallets. The flaps in particular are subject to substantial loads and will frequently be damaged. So as to avoid the need to carry out extensive repair work on the net structure, it is proposed, according to the invention, to construct the net from various component nets. The production of the nets can likewise be facilitated in this way.
