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, which comprises a fastening element for the absorbent article for fastening the absorbent article to underpants or a stiffening element for providing a relatively stiff region of the absorbent article and for defining a collapse prone portion of the absorbent article to shape the absorbent article as desired. The element defines a Y- or X-shape and comprises a first piece of material defining a bend and a second piece of material defining a bend, wherein the first and second pieces of material and their bends together define the Y or X shape of the element. The first and second pieces define a generally V- or U-shape so that each of the first and second pieces has first and second legs extending from a point of the V-shape or a bight of the U-shape, wherein the second legs respectively provide first and second arms of the Y- or X-shape of the element, and wherein the first legs either together provide a third arm of the Y-shape or respectively provide third and fourth arms of the X-shape.
