Abstract: A dispenser for wipes materials and for enabling convenient dispensing of wipes from a roll. At least one side port with a cap is provided to enable the removing of a wipe. An orifice within the port may frictionally engage the wipes. A curved barrier sheet of material between the wipes roll and the dispenser body aids in loading a replacement roll of wipes into the dispenser. The barrier sheet is has an opening for a wipe to pass. The dispenser is refillable through a removable end. Axial spindles suspend the roll for rotation within the dispenser. A spool for use with the dispenser has linearly disposed channels on an outer surface to reduce adhesion with some materials and to improve frictional engagement with others.
