recompact
Condense once more
To recompact is to compact again—to compress or consolidate material that has loosened or expanded.
The term appears in technical contexts: soil that has been disturbed may need to be recompacted, or digital files may be recompacted to save space.
Workers recompacted the gravel after laying the pipe.
