The present invention discloses a disposable diaper with a reusable waistband (including disposable diapers for adults and babies), which comprises a disposable diaper and an attachable waistband. Two waistband attachments are symmetrically formed in the back of the disposable diaper. The attachable waistband is made of a non-woven fabric. Several elastic bands are fixed onto the inner side of the attachable waistband. Two removable adhesive strips are formed in the middle region of the inner side of the attachable waistband and corresponding to the waistband attachments of the disposable diaper. Two corresponding hook-and-loop fasteners are respectively formed on two ends of the attachable waistband. The disposable diaper of the present invention is easy to wear. The attachable waistband of the present invention can be repeatedly used. Therefore, the present invention saves user much money and favors environmental protection.

The present invention relates to improved fastening tabs, in particular to fastening tabs for disposable absorbent articles such as diapers or sanitary napkins.

An absorbent article is provided. The absorbent article includes an absorbent assembly having a liquid permeable inner layer, an outer layer, and an absorbent body between the inner and outer layers. A pair of ears extend transversely outward from opposite sides of the absorbent assembly in a back waist region, each of the ears having a primary first fastening-component that is selectively engagable with a primary second fastening-component in a front waist region. There is a pair of spaced-apart secondary first fastening-components disposed on the outer layer in the front waist region, each of the secondary first fastening-components being selectively engageable with the secondary second fastening-components. Each secondary first fastening-component fits into a fastener region, wherein each fastener region is defined by an outline. Each outline has a waist edge and an opposite leg edge connected by an outer edge and an inner edge. The length of the outer edge is shorter than the length of the inner edge.

The invention relates to a sanitary article, with an absorption body (10) and with leg openings, wherein elongate elasticating means (12) curved in an arc shape are fixed on both sides outside the absorption body (10) in the product transverse direction (16), resulting in elastication of the leg openings (18), wherein a planar material portion (6) facing towards the body comprises a nonwoven (8), characterized in that the nonwoven (8), in the area of the elasticating means (12) on both sides, and for fixing the latter, has, on its side (22) facing away from the body, a first adhesive coating (24) applied in a strip shape over the whole surface and extending in the product longitudinal direction (14), and in that the nonwoven (8), in the area of the elasticating means (12) on both sides, and for fixing the latter, has, on its side (22) facing away from the body on both sides in the product transverse direction (16) outside the first adhesive coating (24), a second adhesive coating (26) applied in a strip shape over the whole surface and extending in the product longitudinal direction (14), and in that the second adhesive coating (26) is shorter, to the front in the product longitudinal direction (14) and to the rear in the product longitudinal direction (14), than the first adhesive coating (24), i.e. ends before the latter, and in that the elongate elasticating means (12) are fixed by the first and second adhesive coatings (24, 26) between the nonwoven (8) and the planar material portion (4).

A disposable absorbent article comprising: a liquid permeable topsheet; a liquid impermeable backsheet; and an absorbent core comprising absorbent material therein and being sandwiched between said topsheet and backsheet; the topsheet, backsheet and absorbent core together forming a chassis of said article, wherein said chassis comprises a perimeter formed by first and second transverse edges and first and second longitudinal edges connecting the first and second transverse edges; a longitudinal centerline (y) extending substantially parallel to said first and second longitudinal edges and interposed therebetween such to divide said chassis into a first longitudinal half between said longitudinal centerline (y) and said first longitudinal edge and a second longitudinal half between said longitudinal centerline (y) and said second longitudinal edge; and a transverse centerline (x) extending substantially parallel to said first and second transverse edges and interposed therebetween such to divide said chassis into a first transverse half between said transverse centerline (x) and said first transverse edge and a second transverse half between said transverse centerline (x) and said second transverse edge; wherein said article further comprises an outer cover positioned on a garment-facing side of said backsheet and covering at least 75% of an area defined by said perimeter of said chassis; and a fastening system consisting of one or more male fasteners and a female fastening material; and wherein the female fastening material comprises a landing zone arranged to receive said one or more male fasteners thereon to provide a fastening of said one or more male fasteners to said female fastening material, wherein said female fastening material comprises, preferably consists of, said outer cover; wherein the one or more male fasteners comprise one or more first areas of adhesive A1 and one or more second areas of mechanical fastening elements A2 and wherein the total area ratio A1/A2 is from about 0.4 to about 1 and wherein the outer cover may be an embossed nonwoven and the outer cover comprising high-fiber-density areas and low-fiber-density areas, wherein the low-fiber-density areas are at least substantially enclosed by high-fiber-density areas, and wherein the high-fiber-density areas are disposed in a repeated pattern.
