Plastic Reel Alternative.
Weight and cost reductions over plastic
Corrugated cardboard spools (Corrispools) offer you all the benefits of moulded plastic spools but with a number of additional advantages. Corrugated cardboard spools are particularly lightweight allowing for easy handling yet remain durable, strong and hardwearing.
Suitable for pretty much any wound product (cables, hoses, rope etc.) these cardboard spools are also available with print options, branding and additional surface finishes.
