The master kit is configured to provide a user a respective subkit to address associated hygienic requirements of the user.

An absorbent-article container includes a containing member; and an absorbent article contained in the containing member. At least a part of an outermost surface of the containing member is formed of paper. At least a part of an outermost surface of the absorbent article is formed of nonwoven fabric. A minimum value of a dynamic friction coefficient on an innermost surface of the containing member is less than a dynamic friction coefficient on the part of the outermost surface of the containing member.

A process for making individually wrapped personal hygiene absorbent articles is provided. It comprises: (i) providing a single image with indicia wherein at least one of the indicia is repeated more than once within said single image; (ii) printing a plurality of said single images over a continuous film to form a continuous repetition of the same single image in a side-by-side arrangement; (iii) cutting the printed film and/or web material along a transverse axis such to form a plurality of individual segments of film forming individual wrapping sheets comprising a portion of said single image and sized such to each accommodate one of said personal hygiene absorbent articles therein; (iv) wrapping individual personal hygiene absorbent articles each with one of said wrapping sheets such that a printed portion of the wrapping sheet is viewable; (v) stacking a plurality of the individually wrapped personal hygiene absorbent articles into a container.

In one embodiment, an array of packages may comprise two or more different sizes of disposable absorbent articles. The Product Waist-to-Side Silhouette of a second absorbent article may be equal to or greater than a Product Waist-to-Side Silhouette of a first absorbent article. And, an Array Average Product Waist-to-Side Silhouette of first and second packages of the array may be from about 1.7 to about 6.0.

A diaper changing and disposal kit is disclosed. The diaper changing and disposal kit has a diaper with a pocket. The pocket stores a variety of diaper changing supplies such as baby wipes, disposable gloves, and an airtight disposal bag. The diaper also has a wetness indicator strip to aid a user in determining when the diaper needs to be changed. Preferably, the diaper changing and disposal kit is stored in a package until it is ready to be used.

A disposable absorbent article may include a chassis that includes a topsheet, a backsheet, and an absorbent core disposed between the topsheet and the backsheet; and a leg gasketing system. The leg gasketing system may include an inner cuff and an outer cuff; the inner cuff may include an inner cuff folded edge and an inner cuff material edge, and the outer cuff may include an outer cuff material edge such that the web of material is folded laterally outward to form the inner cuff folded edge, and the leg gasketing system further including a leg gasketing system pocket with an opening on an inboard longitudinal edge of the leg gasketing system pocket. The disposable absorbent article also includes at least one channel in the absorbent core.

An absorbent article such as a diaper extending in a longitudinal direction parallel to a longitudinal axis (80′) and a transversal direction (90′) perpendicular to the longitudinal direction and comprising a distribution layer (54) between a topsheet (24) and an absorbent core (28). The distribution layer comprises a fibrous material and a first and second longitudinally-extending channels (86a,b) substantially free of fibrous material. The fibrous material is profiled in the transversal direction so that average basis weight between the channels differs from the average basis weight in the lateral areas outward of the channels by at least 50 g/m.sup.2 and/or wherein the distribution layer comprises a first region having a first basis weight (bw1) and a second region having a second basis weight (bw2), wherein the first basis weight and the second basis weight differ by at least 20 g/m.sup.2, preferably by at least 50 g/m.sup.2, and these regions are present in different areas of the distribution layer but in the same longitudinally extending transversal section. The absorbent core may comprise channel-forming areas (26a,b). The article further comprises a backsheet (25).

The present disclosure relates to taped and pant articles comprising substantially identical chassis.

A wrapping sheet for wrapping an absorbent article is provided. The wrapping sheet includes a first region and a second region. The first region includes one end in a first direction of the wrapping sheet and the second region includes an opposite end in the first direction. The wrapping sheet is configured to wrap the absorbent article by causing the first region to overlap with the outer surface of the second region, and a sealing tape is attached so as to extend from a first portion on the outer surface of the first region to a second portion on the outer surface of the second region. The outer surface of the second portion is subjected to treatment so as to reduce a bonding force between the second portion and the sealing tape as compared to a bonding force between the first portion and the sealing tape.
