An Absorbent article comprising a topsheet, a backsheet, and an absorbent core comprising an absorbent structure, wherein the absorbent structure exhibits a Cross Direction bending rigidity between 0.3 gf*cm{circumflex over (&#x2003;)}2/cm and 1.6 gf*cm{circumflex over (&#x2003;)}2/cm and a Machine Direction bending rigidity between 1.5 gf*cm{circumflex over (&#x2003;)}2/cm and 14 gf*cm{circumflex over (&#x2003;)}2/cm.

Absorbent article with absorbent structure having anisotropic rigidity

The present invention relates to a layers layered absorbent element for use in a disposable absorbent article comprising a top layer and a bottom layer. The top layer is a fibrous nonwoven layer having a basis weight of from 20 to 100 gsm, a thickness from 0.25 to 5 mm, is formed with fibers having an average length from 26 to 200 mm and it has a fixed height saturation at 5 cm above 40%. The bottom layer is in direct contact with the top layer and comprises superabsorbent polymer (SAP) and cellulosic fibers. A plurality of fibers protruding from the bottom layer penetrate into the top layer.

Absorbent element for disposable absorbent articles having an integrated acquisition layer

An folded absorbent sanitary pad having a higher basis weight of superabsorbent polymer in correspondence with the folding lines which helps reducing the risk of side leakage.

Absorbent pads comprising zones of differential absorbent capacity

An absorbent article comprising an odor control material comprising at least one inclusion complex of cyclodextrin with an organic compound which is dispersed in a matrix comprising a polysiloxane oil.

Absorbent articles comprising an odour control system

An absorbent sanitary pad with side flaps having a higher basis weight of superabsorbent polymer in correspondence with the wings end points which helps reducing side leakage.

An folded absorbent sanitary pad having a lower basis weight of superabsorbent polymer in correspondence with the folding lines which helps reducing the stiffness of the article caused by the folding lines.

The present invention relates to a color printed liquid permeable laminated structure comprising a first liquid permeable layer and a second liquid permeable layer, the first layer is color printed on at least one of its surfaces prior to being laminated to the second layer and stabilizing the laminated structure with a bonding means. These color printed laminated structures are particularly suitable for use in disposable absorbent articles for feminine protection, typically as so called 'secondary' topsheet in face to face relation with so called 'primary' topsheet, through which they are visible.

An absorbent article having a longitudinal centerline and adapted to be worn in an undergarment having a crotch portion bounded on opposite sides by portions of curved leg openings. The absorbent article comprises a main body portion, the main body portion comprising a liquid pervious body-facing surface, a liquid impervious garment facing surface, and an absorbent core positioned between the body-facing surface and the garment-facing surface. The absorbent article comprises at least one indicator marker visible from the body-facing surface, the indicator markers disposed to indicate proper alignment of the absorbent article with respect to undergarment-specific features such as the curved leg openings.

Absorbent article having a fit guide

A method for correctly placing an absorbent article in the crotch portion of an undergarment having a crotch portion bounded on opposite sides by portions of curved leg openings. In one embodiment the method comprises the steps of providing an absorbent article having at least one indicator marker visible from the body-facing surface, the indicator marker disposed to indicate proper alignment of the absorbent article with respect to the curved leg openings; positioning the absorbent article in the crotch portion such that the indicator marker is aligned with at least one leg elastic of the curved leg openings; and, affixing the article to the crotch portion of the undergarment.

Method for proper placement and positioning of an absorbent article in an undergarment

A disposable absorbent article with an element intended to absorb bodily exudates and a web with stems which functions as a mechanical fastener to prevent shifting of the article e.g. when affixed on underwear.

Disposable absorbent articles with improved garment fastening

The present invention relates to a menstrual fluid management device that is attached directly to the wearer by use of an adhesive. The device allows for direct and immediate containment of menstrual and other vaginal discharges. In particular, the device improves the prevention of soiling over devices already known in the art by using an attachment flange around an orifice which has a shape of the generally oblong dimensions, where the width in the rear end of the orifice is wider than at the front end, thereby improving the circumscription of the female genitalia and the sealing along the flange to the skin of the wearer.
