Abstract: Center-pull napkin dispensers and methods of supplying napkins for the same are disclosed. A center-pull napkin dispenser may comprise a body for supporting at least one roll of perforated paper napkins and a nozzle comprising a nozzle opening configured for dispensing napkins therethrough. The nozzle opening defines a nozzle cross-sectional area (AN) and the roll of paper napkins defines a cross-sectional material mass (X). The nozzle cross-sectional area divided by the cross-sectional material mass and multiplied by a constant C=10,000, is about (AN/X)*C?0.85. A method of supplying napkins for a center-pull napkin dispenser may comprise the steps of providing a center-pull napkin dispenser comprising a nozzle opening that defines a nozzle cross-sectional area (AN); providing a roll of paper napkins such that the nozzle cross-sectional area divided by the napkin cross-sectional material mass (X) multiplied by the constant, is about (AN/X)*C?0.85. An objective wrinkle index is also disclosed.

Abstract: A method for forming a tubular sheet product roll includes providing a sheet product roll having a first configuration and a void, centering a rotational axis of the sheet product roll on a longitudinal axis of a first tool, and inserting the first tool into the void of the sheet product roll to define an inner diameter of the void and to form the sheet product roll having a second configuration different from the first configuration.

Abstract: A method for fabricating a roll of sheet product includes forming reference indications on portions of a sheet material, wrapping the sheet material about a spindle to form a core about the spindle, wrapping a sheet product about the core to form a log, removing the spindle from the log, and cutting the log into individual rolls of sheet product, wherein the log is cut proximate to the reference indications such that the reference indications are arranged at a first distal end of each of the individual rolls of sheet product.

Abstract: A method for fabricating a roll of sheet product includes facilitating wrapping a sheet product material about a core to form the roll of sheet product, and applying a reference indication to a distal end of the core following the formation of the roll of sheet product.

Abstract: An absorbent cellulosic sheet includes (i) a plurality of fiber-enriched pileated regions having fibers that are oriented in a direction transverse to a machine direction (MD) of the sheet, and (ii) a plurality of linking regions that link the fiber-enriched regions together. The linking regions have fibers that have an orientation that is offset from the orientation of the fibers in the plurality of fiber-enriched pileated regions.

Abstract: A multi-ply wiper/towel product includes at least one wet laid web having at least 10% fibrillated cellulosic microfiber, and at least about 40% wood pulp derived papermaking fibers. The at least one wet laid web has formed therein (i) a plurality of fiber-enriched hollow domed regions on the upper side of the at least one wet laid web having a relatively high local basis weight, (ii) connecting regions having a relatively lower local basis weight forming a network interconnecting the relatively high local basis weight domed regions of the one wet laid web, and (iii) transition areas with upwardly and inwardly inflected consolidated fibrous regions transitioning from the connecting regions into the domed regions.

Abstract: A container has a plurality of panels integrally arranged with respect to a set of orthogonal x, y and z axes, the z-axis defining a direction line in which the container is configured to support a stacking load. The panels are folded to define a form having a plurality of folded edges oriented perpendicular to the z-axis. At least one of the plurality of folded edges has a cutout region having a planar edge oriented perpendicular to the z-axis. The plurality of panels includes a plurality of cut edges oriented and disposed inline with respective ones of the plurality of folded edges. At least one of the plurality of cut edges has a projection disposed contiguous and planar with a respective panel. The projection includes a planar edge oriented perpendicular to the z-axis, the planar edge being disposed within an adjacently disposed cutout region.

Abstract: A method includes receiving a first image of a first line of perforations in a sheet product, processing the first image to determine whether the first line of perforations are within specifications, and outputting an indication to an operator indicative that the first line of perforations are not within specifications responsive to determining that the first line of perforations are not within specifications.

Abstract: A roll includes a succession of sheets of single-use absorbent paper, the succession of sheets includes a first sheet partially defined by a first line of perforations and a first cut arrangement partially defined by a first cut, a second cut, and a connecting region arranged between the first cut and the second cut and a second sheet partially defined by the first cut arrangement, and a second line of perforations.
