SEALED ABSORBENT ARTICLE PACKAGE WITH NATURAL FIBERS
A package of one or more absorbent articles, wherein the one or more absorbent articles are sealed within the package is described. The package has a plurality of panels and a top fold line. The plurality of panels includes a consumer-facing panel and a top panel disposed superjacent to the consumer-facing panel. Each of the plurality of panels has an inner surface and an outer surface. The top fold line is disposed between the consumer-facing panel and the top panel, and the top fold line is colinear, at least in part, with a cross-wise crease. And the package material has natural fibers and has a basis weight of between 60 gsm to 120 gsm, more preferably between 65 gsm to 105 gsm, or most preferably between 70 gsm to 90 gsm, as determined via ISO 536 as modified herein.
BOND PATTERN
A composite includes a first substrate and a second substrate joined in a bonding region, wherein the first substrate comprises a first Peak Force Tensile Strength and the second Peak Force Tensile Strength. The first Peak Force Tensile Strength is greater than or equal to the second Peak Force Tensile Strength. The bonding region has a Bond Density of about 10% to about 22%; and a Composite Tensile Strength at Peak Force that is within about 15% of the second Peak Force Tensile Strength.
Shaped Nonwoven
A nonwoven fabric. The nonwoven fabric can include a first surface and a second surface and a visually discernible pattern of three-dimensional features on one of the first or second surface. Each of the three-dimensional features can define a microzone comprising a first region and a second region. The first and second regions can have a difference in values for an intensive property.
Humidity-stable package of disposable absorbent articles with wetness indicators
A package comprising a plurality of disposable absorbent articles contained in an outer wrap is disclosed. The outer wrap is formed of a film having a thickness and has a path of scoring that partially but not completely penetrates the thickness, and defines a path of weakness in the film along which tear propagation is facilitated.
Adult disposable absorbent articles and arrays comprising improved product lengths
In one embodiment, an array of packages may comprise two or more different sizes of disposable absorbent articles. The Array Average Length Difference of at least the first and second absorbent articles in the array is less than about 65 mm and greater than about negative 10 mm. In another embodiment, a disposable absorbent article may have a Product Length is within about +/−40 mm of the Target Rise.
ACCOMMODATION BODY FOR ABSORBENT ARTICLE
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.
Folded disposable absorbent articles
Disposable absorbent articles are disclosed herein having a first and second fold line. The disposable absorbent articles have a topsheet, a backsheet, and an absorbent system disposed therebetween. The absorbent system has a first absorbent core and a second absorbent core which may be configured in an offset manner. And, the absorbent system and/or the first and second fold lines may be configured with respect to the absorbent article to effect a caliper change in the folded article.
Absorbent article having a folded waist
An article including a front region, a back region, and a chassis. The chassis may include an absorbent core having a front end edge and a back end edge. The front region and the back region may extend laterally outward beyond side edges of the chassis. The front region and the back region may abut to form a first seam and a second seam. At least one of the front region and the back region may include an elastic member. A first outer nonwoven layer of the front region and a second outer nonwoven layer of the back region may be folded to form an upper edge in the front and back regions such that a distal end of each of the first and second outer nonwoven layer may be disposed between the upper edge and the front and back end edges of the absorbent core, respectively.
Shaped nonwoven
A nonwoven fabric. The nonwoven fabric can include a first surface and a second surface and a visually discernible pattern of three-dimensional features on one of the first or second surface. Each of the three-dimensional features can define a microzone comprising a first region and a second region. The first and second regions can have a difference in values for an intensive property. The nonwoven further has a plurality of apertures, wherein at least a portion of the aperture abuts at least one of the first region and the second region of the microzone.
