A method for producing a chassis web for a disposable pant article, the method including feeding a first continuous base web in a machine direction; attaching a continuous elastic waistband component to the first base web in an attachment area extending in the machine direction; attaching a second continuous base web to the first continuous base web and the continuous waistband component, covering at least the continuous waistband component, thereby forming a compound base web having first and second side edges, the attachment area being spaced apart from at least one of the first and second side edges of the compound base web; severing the compound base web and the attached waistband component by cutting; shifting positions of the first panel web and the second panel web in a cross machine direction; forming a coherent chassis web.

Method of producing a chassis web with a waistband component and disposable pant article produced from the chassis web

A method for producing a chassis web which may be further converted into a disposable pant article and a pant article is disclosed. The method includes feeding a continuous base web in a machine direction; attaching a continuous elastic waistband component to the base web in an attachment area; severing the base web and the attached elastic waistband component by cutting; shifting positions of the first panel web and the second panel web in a cross machine direction, thereby bringing the first and the second panel webs into an arrangement with first and second cut edges facing away from each other in the cross machine direction; directly or indirectly connecting the first side edge of the first panel web with the second side edge of the second panel web thereby forming a coherent chassis web.

Method of producing a chassis web comprising a waistband component and disposable pant article produced from the chassis web

An array of disposable pant-type gender-specific absorbent articles adapted for female and male users. The array has a first subarray including first and second sizes for female users; and a second subarray including third and fourth sizes for male users. Each absorbent article in the array has a transversely elasticised waist portion. At least one of the first and second size absorbent articles has a first circumferential length of the waist portion in a relaxed state and a second circumferential length of the waist portion in an extended state. At least one of the third and fourth size absorbent articles has a third circumferential length of the waist portion in a relaxed state and a fourth circumferential length of the waist portion in an extended state. The first circumferential length is smaller than the third circumferential length, and the second circumferential length is equal to the fourth circumferential length.
