Abstract
The creped, wet-pressed tissue products have improved physical properties such as high caliper and a low degree of stiffness. The tissue products are manufactured by molding the nascent tissue web to a structuring belt such that the pattern disposed on the fabric is imparted to the web and can be seen by the consumer in the finished product. The molding step occurs immediately prior to creping such that the molded, nascent, web is transferred from the structuring belt to a cylindrical dryer. The dried tissue web is subsequently removed by creping. The structuring belt imparts the tissue web with a plurality of discrete molded elements arranged to form continuous, substantially machine direction (MD) oriented, line elements that provide the products with an aesthetically pleasing appearance and improves certain physical properties of the finished product.
