Drums and reels
in XXL format
Drums and reels – including coating and assembly
We are your reliable partner when it comes to the development, design, manufacturing, and assembly of large steel drums and custom-made XXL reels. We implement your requirements with precision – whether it’s a one-off or a series production. Our portfolio includes drums for cables, drums for ropes, plastic pipes, and special designs for other coiled goods.
Industrial drums can range from compact formats to several meters in diameter. Especially in cable production, cable laying and storage, as well as in rope manufacturing and transport, such XXL drums are essential. This is where we apply our full expertise and flexibility to support your projects.
Shipping reels
Shipping drums are designed for the safe transport of coiled goods and can handle very heavy loads. They are suitable for single-use applications or as durable, reusable drums with a robust design. They carry cables, ropes, pipes and other coiled goods.

Drums and reels as single units or series products
Our service portfolio ranges from shipping drums and machine reels to offshore drums and special designs for other applications. As specialists in manufacturing oversized reels and large steel drums, we offer great flexibility – whether producing small steel drums or massive drum giants as single units or in series.
It is natural for us that our customers set the standards before just-in-time production begins – regardless of the desired format or the coiled goods for which the drums are intended. Thanks to our machinery park designed for large-scale steel service, we provide maximum flexibility in the production of XXL drums and transport drums.
