With Sonoco's broad product line, we often have a solution
already developed for plastic and polyfiber reels, which can save you the expense of molds and tooling.
Two highlights of the product line: the Reel Tough® reel, with its special patented flange design and a life span up to 10 times longer than similar process reel; and our EconoReel™ reels and spools that are engineered to be durable while delivering strong performance for a lower cost. We use our technology and design experience and our multiple locations in North America and Europe to develop the most cost-effective solution for customers.
