Abstract: The present invention relates to a printed substrate comprising a first paper layer, the first paper layer comprising a first side and an opposing second side, the first side comprising a flexography print area and a non-print area, wherein the flexography print area has a color density no less than about 0.70 as measured according to Color Density Test disclosed herein, and wherein the non-print area has a roughness in the range of from about 3 ?m to about 15 ?m as measured according to Surface Roughness Test disclosed herein; a package for accommodating one or more articles comprising the printed substrate; and a method of making the printed substrate.

Abstract: A package accommodating a plurality of absorbent articles is described. The package has a plurality of surfaces, including a first pair of opposing surfaces each having a seam, wherein at least one of the seams is a closing seam, wherein the closing seam extends along a direction of a width of the package, wherein the closing seam comprises opposing closing gussets; a second pair of opposing surfaces each adjacent the first pair of opposing surfaces; a front surface and an opposing rear surface, each of the front surface and rear surface being adjacent to each of the first pair and second pair of opposing surfaces, wherein the first pair, second pair, front and rear surfaces define an interior compartment of the package. The package is a laminate having a polymeric layer and a paper layer, the polymeric layer being disposed at least in the closing seam.

Abstract: A flexible gusset package containing a plurality of items is described. The package has a front surface having no seam; a rear surface opposite the front surface; a first surface adjacent the front and rear surfaces; a second surface having a closing seam and being opposite the first surface; an opposing pair of third and fourth surfaces respectively adjacent the first and second surfaces, the third and fourth surfaces having a first and second side seams, respectively; a pair of side gussets located in the third and fourth surfaces, respectively; and a pair of closing gussets located in the second surface, wherein the surfaces cooperatively define an interior compartment of the package, wherein the package is a laminate having a film layer facing the interior compartment and a paper layer, and wherein the second surface includes an area of the film layer where the closing seam is formed.
