Abstract: A male incontinence guard has a fluid-impermeable backsheet, a fluid-permeable topsheet facing a user and an absorbent body arranged between the backsheet and the topsheet. The guard has a longitudinal extension along a longitudinal axis and a transverse extension along a transverse axis. The transverse axis divides the guard into an upper and a lower region. The upper region has a greater maximum extension along the transverse axis than the lower region. The absorbent body has primary and secondary cores arranged in a stacked configuration. The primary core has a greater area in an XY plane than the area of the secondary core. The secondary core has side edges that are at least partly generally parallel to the longitudinal axis. Also disclosed is a method for manufacturing the male incontinence guard.

Abstract: A male incontinence guard having a fluid-impermeable backsheet, a fluid-permeable topsheet facing the user and an absorbent body arranged between the backsheet and the topsheet. The guard has a longitudinal extension along a longitudinal axis and a transverse extension along a transverse axis. The transverse axis divides the guard into an upper region and a lower region. The transverse axis extends between first and second lower corner points which define the two outermost points of the guard, which define a first width. The upper region has an inwardly recessed curvature portion extending between first and second upper corner points. The upper corner points define a second width such that the first width is greater than the second width. The corner points are connected by their respective outer side edges. A method for manufacturing a male incontinence guard is disclosed.

Abstract: A disposable hygiene absorbent product having a liquid-permeable topsheet of a translucent material, a liquid-impermeable backsheet and an absorbent core arranged between the topsheet and the backsheet is disclosed. The absorbent core has a smaller extension than the topsheet and the backsheet and is surrounded by a peripheral edge area which comprises the topsheet and the backsheet. The edge area has an elastic element extending longitudinally following the shape of the core and/or an outermost peripheral edge of the edge area. The backsheet has a different inherent color than the inherent color of the topsheet, the core and the elastic elements, and has a lower L*-value than the topsheet, the core and the elastic elements as measured by a reflectance spectrophotometer. The topsheet is provided with a printed pattern arranged to mask the elastic elements.

Abstract: An absorbent hygiene article for placement in underwear is provided, including a liquid permeable topsheet, a backsheet and an absorbent core disposed between the topsheet and the backsheet. The topsheet is of a translucent material and is provided with a colored pattern defining at least one background region and at least one colored region having a first inherent color. The topsheet-facing side of the backsheet has a second color; and a background region located in an inner area has a higher L*-value than a background region located in the edge area.
