Mill cores are heavy, constant, and brutal on freight budgets — exactly the product that should never ride a thousand miles. NHPT winds 3" mill cores and parent-roll cores in Raymond, New Hampshire, close enough to the New England mill belt that replenishment is measured in days and a short shipment can be made whole the same week.
Built for parent-roll weight
Heavy walls up to .125" and beyond, specified against your roll weight and handling — clamp trucks included. Tell us the load; we will engineer the wall.
Standing programs, level pricing
Mills consume cores on a rhythm. A standing monthly program locks volume pricing, smooths our scheduling, and keeps your core racks lean because the next truck is never far.
The freight math
A core program sourced regionally cuts freight cost per unit and lead-time risk at the same time. Our resource guide on local core supply walks the numbers.
