Our textile cores can help to increase productivity/capacity, decrease opportunity cost and create additional production, and decrease labor costs overall.
Hi-Radius Cores
Sonoco's new Hi-Radius tube greatly reduces yarn breakage by optimizing the tube end geometry, to reduce and even eliminate yarn contact with the tube during takeoff - especially at the end of the bobbin. This innovation works for all yarns, and it is particularly valuable for higher-value, lighter-denier yarns especially susceptible to snagging and tension spikes.
