In accordance with the present invention, there is provided a film roll package that hardly suffers from deformation of a paper box owing to moisture condensation in a container, or hardly suffers from deformation of a paper core for the film roll owing to impact, etc., upon transportation thereof which tends to be caused by deterioration in strength of the paper core for the film roll owing to absorption of moisture. The present invention relates to a film roll package for transportation comprising a film roll comprising a paper core and a plastic film wound around the paper core, a paper box accommodating the film roll therein which is rested on a pallet, plastic films or sheets respectively disposed on upper and lower side surfaces of the paper box, each of the plastic films or sheets having a longitudinal dimension and a lateral dimension which are longer than a longitudinal dimension and a lateral dimension of the upper or lower side surface of the paper box, respectively, and a thickness of 5 to 500 μm, and a stretched film wound over side surfaces of the paper box and the pallet so as to cover 20 to 90% of a height of a side surface of the pallet to fix the paper box onto the pallet.

A payout tube has an inner end and an outer end. The inner end is disposable in an interior of a coil of filamentary material wound in a figure-eight configuration defining a payout hole. The outer end is configured to extend outwardly from the payout hole of the coil. The payout tube has a flange at the outer end and has a rounded edge at the inner end. The rounded edge has a radius between 0.20 and 0.30 inch. In some embodiments, the payout tube includes a tubular body that extends between the flange and the rounded edge. In other embodiments, the payout tube includes an outer ring having the flange, an inner ring having the rounded edge with the inner and outer rings aligned coaxially about a longitudinal axis in spaced relation, and a plurality of pillars extending longitudinally from the outer ring to the inner ring.

A glass ribbon in the form of a glass roll is provided that is optimized with respect to the requirements of a long service life and at the same time compact dimensions. A bending radius on the inner side of the thin glass roll is determined by performing breakage tests on samples of the glass material, statistical parameters are determined on the basis of the breakage tests, and the statistical parameters are converted into a range of bending radii which meet the requirements on service life and the most compact dimensions possible of the thin glass roll.
