A Never ending REEL story

Circular economy

SEA can provide creative rental and leasing options to allow you to cut Scope 3 emissions. Unlike when you buy a reel, only record Scope 3 emissions while you use the reel, then take the emissions off your books when you return the reel.
Leasing lets you use OPEX instead of CAPEX. Leasing means one project doesn’t physically buy the products; this gives your company the flexibility to assign accurate internal costs for use project by project.
Externally, we preferentially buy steel from steel mills using 100% recycled steel and internally, we ensure all our own scrap steel goes back in the circular economy for reuse in making new steel.

Let us manage your REEL catalogue

We can manage your national or international reel inventory and GA drawing database. Allowing you the peace of mind knowing that your reels are in good hands.

Refurbishment and reuse– Keep your reels rolling

Use the strength of steel and extend the life cycle of your assets and refurbish them to keep your reels rolling.
Reuse older reels and repurpose them into a new design providing a significant cost saving verses building a new reel.
At SEA we have our own sand blasting and painting facility to efficiently manage all your refurbishment requirements.

REEL Storage – fully insured

SEA can store your reels with or without spooled products guaranteeing you an optimum insurance solution for your valuable assets.
At SEA we realize your yard space is finite, we can store and deliver your reel orders just-in-time so that you get only what you need, when you want it.
