A compressed hollow coreless roll of absorbent paper sheet produced by way of providing a roll of absorbent paper sheet by winding the sheet about a forming core member having a diameter in the range of 30 mm to 50 mm; removing the forming core member such that there is provided a hollow coreless roll of absorbent paper sheet with an axial cavity having a diameter in the range of 30 mm to 50 mm and compressing the hollow coreless roll such that the axial cavity is substantially collapsed. The compressed hollow coreless rolls are readily re-formed into cylindrical shape. Space saving packages of the rolls are overwrapped with tubular polymer film to provide a flexible reconfigurable package of a series of individually encased rolls. Volume reductions of about 10 to about 20%, about 14% to about 20%, 30%, 40% and more as compared with conventional products are realized. Un rollo sin núcleo, hueco, comprimido de hojas de papel absorbente producido al proporciona un rollo de hojas de papel absorbente al enrollar las hojas alrededor de un miembro de núcleo formador, el cual tiene un diámetro dentro del intervalo de 30 mm a 50 mm , remover el miembro de núcleo formador de manera que se proporciona un rollo sin núcleo, hueco de hojas de papel absorbente con una cavidad axial que tiene un diámetro de 30 mm a 50 mm y comprimir el rollo sin núcleo, hueco de manera que la cavidad axial queda esencialmente colapsada. Los rollos sin núcleo, huecos, comprimidos se pueden reformar fácilmente con una forma cilíndrica. Los paquetes ahorradores de espacio de los rollos se envuelven con una película de polímero tubular para proporcionar un paquete reconfigurable, flexible de una serie de rollos envueltos en forma individual. Se pueden alcanzar reducciones en el volumen de aproximadamente 10% aproximadamente a 20%, de aproximadamente 14% aproximadamente a 20%, 30%, 40% y más comparados con los productos convencionales.
