Abstract:
A method of treating a coreless roll of absorbent paper product wound throughout the entire diameter of the roll so as to make it easier for a user to center a winding axis of the coreless roll with respect to a dispenser, comprising steps of:(a) positioning a substantially cylindrical tool having a diameter that is within the range of substantially 1/32"" to 1/2"" adjacent to at least one side of the coreless roll so that the substantially cylindrical tool is substantially centered with respect to the winding axis of the roll; and(b) pressing the substantially cylindrical tool into the side of the roll to form a visible depression in the side of the roll that is centered with respect to the winding axis of the roll; whereby persons loading the treated roll onto a dispenser will find it easier to center the roll with respect to a dispenser.
