Products having reducing tissue wrinkling, puckering, and bunching and improved emboss definition, emboss visibility, and perceived softness are described. The methods comprise embossing the tissue sheet with a emboss elements having segments aligned in the machine direction and including an abatement component, such as a tapered width or a multi dual-apex, that can absorb machine direction stretch during the production of the product.

Disclosed are multi-ply tissue products comprising a non-crosslinked binder that are durable and dispersible. The products generally have a Slosh time less than 2 minutes, such as less than about 60 seconds, such as less than about 45 seconds. Surprisingly, the foregoing Slosh times are achieved despite the tissue products having relatively high cross-machine direction (CD) wet tensile strength, such as greater than about 100 g/3″. Typically, increasing wet tensile strength, particularly wet CD tensile strength, negatively effects dispersability and increases Slosh time. Despite this trend, the present invention surprisingly provides a tissue product having a relatively high degree of wet strength and good dispersability.

A system and method for producing a board product characterized by having two corrugated mediums and at least one embossed medium in the board product. The board product may further include one or more facings that are adhesively coupled to either the corrugated medium, the embossed medium, or both. Generally speaking, a corrugated medium may be characterized as a paper product that exhibits flutes induced by a cross-corrugating process such that the induced flutes are perpendicular (or at least not congruent) with the machine direction of the paper product. An embossed medium may be characterized as a paper product that exhibits flutes induced by a linear-embossing process such that the induced flutes are aligned with the machine direction of the paper product. A resultant board product is stronger and more efficiently produced because of the linearly-embossed medium harnessing the natural strength of the paper in the machine direction.

An embossing system including: an embossing unit with at least one embossing roller arranged to emboss a web of paper intended to be joined with a further web by gluing; and a gluing unit associated with the embossing unit, with a tank containing the glue used to perform the gluing and a glue dispensing device including a cliche roller adapted to distribute by contact the glue contained in the tank on one of the webs while the embossing is performed, the cliche roller rotating with a pre-fixed angular velocity around an axis parallel to said at least one embossing roller. The system further includes: a sensor to produce electrical signals having amplitude and/or frequency related to the vibrations at which the cliche roll is instantaneously subject.

A method for producing a packaging material comprises providing a core material layer of fibre-based material having an inner side and an outer side, embossing the core material layer for forming embossed features having an initial height, the embossed features protruding from the outer side of the core material layer to later form a tactile pattern on a side of the package to be formed by the packaging material, and laminating at least one layer to the inner side of the embossed core material layer such that the height of the embossed features is temporarily reduced to a minimum height.

A hygienic tissue paper includes first slits that are disposed in a longitudinal direction at predetermined intervals, the first slits extending in a width direction intersecting the longitudinal direction, wherein the first slits each include perforations, and wherein a cut length of each of the perforations increases from at least one end in the width direction toward a central portion in the width direction.

A creasing device includes a frame with a substantially horizontal support surface for supporting an article to be creased; a movable tool; and a stationary tool, the latter comprising a stationary member and at least one displaceable member whose height relative to the stationary member can be adjusted. A first actuator moves the movable tool toward the stationary tool and interacts with opposite faces of the article, and a second actuator translates the displaceable member between a first end position in which interacts with the movable tool and a second end position in which it cannot interact with the movable tool. Guide means associated with the stationary tool guides the displaceable member between the first end position and the second end position. The guide means are have a curvilinear path contained in a plane substantially perpendicular to the support surface.
