A method of stabilising nonwoven fibres is disclosed. A stabilising material 120 is applied to at least a portion or all of the nonwoven material 110 that comprises or is in a form of a plurality of nonwoven fibres so that the stabilising material 120 is applied to at least some or all of the nonwoven fibres. The nonwoven fibres to which the stabilising material 120 is applied are bonded with the stabilising material 120 by adhesive and/or heat bonding, thereby stabilising at least the portion or all of the nonwoven material 110.

The present layered stretchable sheet includes: a plurality of attachment portions at which a pair of non-woven fabrics and a film are thermally bonded together, wherein each one of the attachment portions includes at least one thermal bonding area where the pair of non-woven fabrics and the film are thermally bonded together; at least one boundary line that defines the thermal bonding area; a first vent that is defined by a first opening of the film appearing in a stretched state of the film along the boundary line and that exerts air permeability; and a second vent that is defined by a second opening where a part of the film is absent, the second opening being adjacent to the thermal bonding area and being delimited by the boundary line, wherein the second vent exerts air permeability both in the stretched state and in a non-stretched state.

The present disclosure relates to absorbent articles and methods for manufacturing absorbent articles, and elastomeric laminates and methods for making corrugated elastomeric laminates that may be used as components of absorbent articles.
