About Us

We didn’t invent hose reels. We reinvented them.

Reel Innovations started out with one idea: Make better hose reels.

Innovation is our motivation. That means that we look at new ways to manufacture and provide hose reels that are unique- and better – than the industry standard.

What this philosophy has resulted in, can be summed up in a list of features:

  • More ruggedly- built than the industry standard, so that they provide years of trouble- free service.
  • Space- saving: Hose reels and reel packages that take up the minimal amount of floor space, so that owners of our reels have as much cargo space as available for other equipment and supplies.
  • Electric rewind supply reels for pressure and water hoses
  • Ergonomics: Ease- of- use and “comfort”, to reduce user fatigue from repetitive movements.
  • Floor mounts for our supply reels feature open, easy access to “live connections” and connecting plumbing.
  • Locations for “live swivels” in our Supply Reels, that keep them “hidden”, to protect the swivels, protect the plumbing that connects to the swivels and reduces the space required for reels that use such connections.

The innovative ideas related to our products are continuing, with more new products being readied for release in the near future. 

The upcoming products will fit in nicely with what we’ve done so far, but at the same time, are an entirely new area of focus for us.

Reel Innovations started out with one idea: Make better hose reels.

At first, this involved constructing them out of heavier- gauge steel than is typical in most reels found elsewhere and using industrial powder- coat to paint them in various colors.

But soon, innovation became our motivation, so we looked at other ways to improve the reels we were beginning to produce.  We looked at shortcomings in other reels and specifically designed ours to not have such issues.

That resulted in:

  • Heavy- gauge footplates, to better resist the humid and often corrosive environment of service van flooring
  • Stack brackets for pressure reels that support reels in a rock- solid way that prevents, excessive vibration (a.k.a, “wobble”) when in use and when in transit between jobs.
  • Floor mounts for our supply reels, that feature open, easy access to install and inspect hoses, when “live connections” are used.
  • Locations for “live connections” in our Supply Reels, that keep them “hidden”, to protect the swivels, protect the plumbing that connects to the swivels and reduces the space required for reels that use such connections.

Innovative Reel Solutions: Past, Present, Future

We started looking at space requirements for our reels.  And we realized that there were ways to modify our designs, to make them require less floor space, at any capacity, when compared to other hose reels.  And that became a central “theme” for our design efforts.

Space considerations for our reels resulted in numerous innovations, including:

  • Xtra Tall Vacuum Reels, that have a narrow footprint and therefore require less floor width in customers’ vehicles.
  • Low Profile Supply Reels, designed to be mounted out of the way of our Vacuum Hose Reels, sharing the same narrow footprint (and overhead) width as the vacuum reels they are paired with.
  • Floor stands that get everything up off of the vehicle floor and provide cargo storage underneath, as a result.

There is much more that we can say here.  But the main thing is this:

The innovative ideas related to our products are continuing, with more new products about to be released in the near future.  They will fit in nicely with what we’ve done so far, but at the same time, are an entirely new area of focus for us.
