A moisturizing mat, and process for making it, are disclosed. The moisturizing mat is suitable for use as a base to promote trickle watering of plants in greenhouses. The mat comprises a wood pulp/fabric layer having an impervious plastic film backing layer. The moisturizing mat is produced by a process including the steps of (a) depositing wood pulp on a first fibrous layer, (b) placing a second fibrous layer on top of the wood pulp, (c) bonding the product of step (b), and (d) bonding an impervious plastic film to one face of the product of step (c).

Moisturizing mat and process for making the same

An improved tape tab system for use in disposable diapers in which one end of a first strip of tape is adhesively attached to a diaper. A second strip of tape with one adhesive surface is attached to the free end of the first strip. A releasable cover strip protects the adhesive surface of the second strip. Upon diapering, the cover strip is removed from the adhesive surface of the second strip and the composite strips are fastened to an opposite corner of the diaper, the adhesive surface of the second strip making the original contact and diaper closure. The diaper may be opened for inspection or adjustment by peeling the first strip from the attached second strip, and then reclosed by repositioning the tapes in an overlapping relationship.
