A method of grooving a durable transfer roll core may comprising loading the durable transfer roll core onto a grooving apparatus and grooving a main surface of the durable transfer roll core via engagement with one or a plurality of cutting tools of the tooling section of the grooving apparatus.

A durable transfer roll core may comprise an elongate body comprising a groove, the elongate body having a longitudinal axis. The groove may comprise a Groove Angle from about 0 to about 90 degrees (relative to the longitudinal axis) and the groove may comprise a Groove Depth greater than about 0.003 inches.

A roll includes a core having a tubular shape and a laminate wound around the core. The laminate includes a process film, a surface coat layer formed from a fluorine resin, a substrate layer, an adhesive layer, and a release liner formed from polyethylene terephthalate (PET) in this order in a laminating direction. The process film is formed from at least of polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polyolefin, and polyvinyl chloride (PVC), and is thinner than the release liner.

A roll of absorbent paper product having a central tube about which absorbent paper product, paper towels or toilet tissue, is wound. The central tube consists of one or more rows of pre-curved, compacted sponges for use when the absorbent paper product has been completely unwound therefrom. The individual sponge units can be pre-infused with one or more cleaners, waxes, etc. A method for making such central tube sponges is also disclosed.

An adhesive tape support substrate for supporting adhesive tape in use. The support substrate has an outer surface, an outwardly facing surface and/or an outermost surface of the support substrate that is or visually appears black or near black in colour, or is or appears visually as another colour other than black or near black and has a light reflection value (LRV) of approximately 65% or less and/or a light absorption value (LAV) of approximately 35% or more.

An apparatus and method for dispensing a wound media including one or more reels with an associated locking mechanism. The locking mechanism can allow one or more of the reels to be rotated in one particular direction, while preventing one or more of the reels from being rotated in the opposite direction.
