RAE Products is a leading manufacturer of engineered paper cores for a wide variety of industrial converting and packaging applications. Cores are application specific and designed to carry materials through the converting process from unwind to rewind.
Engineered Paper Tubes
and Cores
We work with customers to develop optimal core solutions. We analyze the material applied to the core, diameter, width, and roll weight to produce a core specific to the end use application. The resulting cores have consistent roundness, dimensional characteristics and applicable crush strength.
We utilize various grades of recycled paperboard with unique strength properties and modern adhesives to yield optimized strength characteristics. We have the most modern equipment available in the world today. We design, build, and operate exceptional equipment. Our technological advancements are a result of our commitment to industrial automation. We are committed to technological advancements in manufacturing operations with a constant focus on innovation and automation.
NEW CONCEPTS TO MODERN SOLUTIONS FOR DEMANDING MANUFACTURING APPLICATIONS
