A method for producing a web of a laminate material for retaining faeces including laminating first and second webs to form an intermediate laminate web, providing transversal slits in the intermediate laminate web and expanding the intermediate laminate web such that the slits are opened to openings. An expanded intermediate laminate web is formed by the expansion. The expanded web is laminated to a third web in order to fix the expanded web in an expanded state, whereby the laminate material web is formed. Also, a method of producing an absorbent article including producing the laminate material web according to the method above.

Method for producing a web of a laminate material for retaining faeces and method for producing an absorbent article

An absorbent article, especially an incontinence pad, having a length and a width extension, the length being greater than the width, and having absorbent core material, wherein the outer longitudinal edges of the absorbent material form three convex lobes (), wherein a pair of folding lines () extend between the longitudinal ends of the middle one () of the three lobes (), so as to divide the absorbent core material into a central portion () and a pair of longitudinal side portions (), such that, when the article () is in use, the folding lines () are generally positioned so as to extend along the crotch area of the user, starting from the gracilis tendons and ending in the region of the perineum, whereby the side portions () may extend from the central portion () towards the user so as to form an arc shape as seen in a transversal direction of the article ().

Absorbent article

An absorbent article, especially an incontinence pad, having a length and a width extension, the length being greater than the width, and including absorbent core material, wherein the absorbent core material forms a central portion () and a pair of longitudinally extending side portions (), the flexural rigidity of the article () at the side portions () is between 3 and 20% of the flexural rigidity of the article () of the central portion () at a location opposite the side portions (), preferably between 4 and 15%, most preferred between 4 and 10%.

A delivery device for a sanitary article includes an encapsulating material with a first layer and a second layer, enclosing an additive in a space formed by these layers of encapsulating material. The delivery device also includes a third layer, positioned above the second layer of encapsulating material. The third layer extends beyond and thereby covers substantially all of the edges of the second layer of encapsulating material. The third layer may also extend into and throughout the space formed between the first and second layers of encapsulating material that enclose the additive. The third layer thereby protects the user of a product comprising the delivery device from contact with the edges of the second layer of encapsulating material and also provides a means for attaching the delivery device to an article to keep it in place during transport storage and use. The invention also relates to sanitary articles, such as hygiene tissues and absorbent articles, containing the delivery device.
