  • Product package having a tinted display window
    Publication number: 20070144937
    Abstract: A package for absorbent articles having a tinted or colored window is provided. The color of the window is chosen to match some predetermined characteristic of the enclosed absorbent articles. The tinted window allows the consumers to view individually wrapped absorbent articles, to confirm the number of enclosed absorbent articles, and to determine one or more predetermined characteristics of the absorbent articles without opening the package. The tinting also allows a feature on an individual absorbent article to be highlighted by matching or complimenting the tint to a color or graphic already incorporated in the individual absorbent article.
