Our Spooling & Rewinding Capabilities
Rewinding Services
Our rewinding services convert master rolls into smaller, production-ready rolls: tailored to your exact equipment and process requirements, ensuring consistent quality and smooth handling during production.
Key benefits of rewinding include:
- Consistent quality: uniform roll dimensions and minimal defects
- Customization: wide range of roll widths, lengths, and core sizes available
- Improved efficiency: optimized roll size and format reduce machine downtime
- Material savings: accurate cutting and winding minimize waste and optimize tape utilization
Spooling Services
Our advanced spooling capabilities transform adhesive tapes into long continuous lengths on a single spool, minimizing downtime caused by frequent roll changes and enabling seamless integration into your production line.
Key benefits of spooling include:
- Increased productivity: longer rolls reduce changeovers
- Efficiency: continuous lengths support higher line speeds
- Narrow width spooling: we can spool tapes as narrow as 6 mm while maintaining long lengths
- Customization: spool width, length, and core size tailored to your process

FAQs about Spooling & Rewinding Services
Rewinding involves converting master rolls into smaller rolls for handling, reconditioning, or process optimization. Spooling rewinds tapes into long, continuous lengths on a single spool to reduce changeovers and increase productivity.
We can spool tapes as narrow as 6 mm while rewinding widths depend on material type and project requirements. Contact us for your specifications..
Spooled tapes reduce downtime, increase line speeds, and improve process efficiency with longer continuous lengths.
Yes, we tailor widths, lengths, and core sizes to match your equipment and production needs.
The right spool size is determined by the width and thickness of the adhesive tape, the desired length of tape on the spool, and your machinery’s specifications. Thinner materials can be wound into longer lengths, while wider tapes may need larger spool diameters. Core diameter also plays a role, with common sizes being 3” or 6”. Consulting with our team will help you choose the optimal spool size for your production needs
Spooling is suitable for various adhesive tapes, especially double-coated and single-coated options like foam, film, and tissue tapes. However, specific material characteristics may require adjustments in winding techniques to ensure performance. Our experts can assist in determining if spooling is appropriate for your specific tape type.
Our spooling capabilities include:
Minimum spool width: 6mm (0.236 inches)
Maximum spool width: 1,270mm (50 inches)
Spool diameter range: 50mm to 1,000mm
Support for lightweight and heavy-duty materials
Precision winding with ±0.025mm tolerance
Accommodates various substrate thicknesses
We can spool a wide range of materials:
Pressure-sensitive adhesive tapes
Transfer tapes
