Manufactured primarily in plywood for uses requiring a sturdy and very lightweight coil, which represents a considerable saving both in acquisition cost and in transportation/return. In competitive terms, its use is usually as non-returnable packaging, typically because it is sent to distant places where the cost of return transportation exceeds the purchase cost. The weight they can support, except for some special reels, is lower than that of a conventional wooden coil.

Main uses:

• Steel cables.
• Copper wire.
• Hoses.
• Electrical cables.
• Natural or plastic fiber ropes.
• Other materials
