A disposable absorbent article having a topsheet, a backsheet, an absorbent core disposed between the topsheet and the backsheet, and a fluid management layer disposed between the topsheet and the absorbent core is disclosed. The fluid management layer is an integrated, carded, nonwoven disposed between the topsheet and the absorbent core. The absorbent article exhibits an average stain size of less than about 2400 mm{circumflex over ()}2, when measured in accordance with the Stain Size test method.

A sanitary napkin disposal device. The sanitary napkin disposal device includes a housing. The housing is defined by a base, where a plurality of sidewalls extends upward from the base towards a top wall. This housing defines an interior volume. An opening extends through a sidewall of the housing and provides access to the interior volume of the housing. The opening feeds into a chute, such that items placed through the opening will fall into the chute. A door is placed over the opening, the door is movable between an open position and a closed position. The door is spring-biased in a closed position.

A disposable hygiene absorbent product having a liquid-permeable topsheet of a translucent material, a liquid-impermeable backsheet and an absorbent core arranged between the topsheet and the backsheet is disclosed. The absorbent core has a smaller extension than the topsheet and the backsheet and is surrounded by a peripheral edge area which comprises the topsheet and the backsheet. The edge area has an elastic element extending longitudinally following the shape of the core and/or an outermost peripheral edge of the edge area. The backsheet has a different inherent color than the inherent color of the topsheet, the core and the elastic elements, and has a lower L*-value than the topsheet, the core and the elastic elements as measured by a reflectance spectrophotometer. The topsheet is provided with a printed pattern arranged to mask the elastic elements.

A disposable absorbent hygiene article is provided, comprising a liquid permeable topsheet, a backsheet and an absorbent core disposed between the topsheet and the backsheet. In the article, at least one layer, selected from said topsheet and an optionally present liquid permeable and nonabsorbent layer disposed between said topsheet and said absorbent core, is provided with a dry coating comprising at least one lactone selected from the group consisting of - and -lactones.

Disposable hygiene article having a liquid-permeable topsheet, a liquid-impermeable backsheet and an absorbent core. The article is releasably attached to a garment and has liquid side barriers arranged substantially along longitudinal edges of the absorbent core. The article has a front portion, oriented upwards during use, having a tapering shape with a maximum width of the front portion, measured between first left and right edge points, and a minimum width, measured between second left and right edge points. A first imaginary connection line connects the first right edge point to the second right edge point and a second imaginary connection line connects the first left edge point to the second left edge point. The first and second imaginary connection lines extend in an angle ranging between 60 and 90 with the transverse direction T and have a length of at least 15% of the full length of the article.
