Abstract: An absorbent article has a longitudinal direction, a transverse direction and a thickness direction, and includes a fluid permeable topsheet, a fluid impermeable backsheet and an absorbent core enclosed between the topsheet and the backsheet having, in the longitudinal direction, a front section, a rear section and a crotch section between the front section and the rear section. The absorbent core has two longitudinally extending side regions and a longitudinally extending central region between said side regions. The central region and the side regions are spaced apart in the transversal direction by longitudinally extending channel regions. Furthermore, the width of the central region in the transversal direction is less than the width of each of the side regions in the transversal direction, at least in the front section and the rear section, and the channel regions are of less basis weight than the side regions and the central region.

Abstract: A disposable absorbent product extends along a longitudinal axis between front and back longitudinal ends of the product, and along a transverse axis. The product has a topsheet defining an interior face of the product configured to face a wearer thereof during use, and a backsheet overlaying the topsheet, the backsheet defining an exterior face of the product. An absorbent core is disposed between the topsheet and the backsheet for storing fluid secreted by the wearer of the product. The product also includes a first pair of fastening components, each being formed from a partially cut-out portion of the disposable absorbent product so as to be pivotally coupled to a remainder of the product, such that pivotal movement of the fastening components relative to a remainder of the product defines at least one aperture that extends between the interior and exterior faces of the product.

Abstract: A package has a stack of disposable absorbent products in an enclosure defined by a flexible polymer material. The enclosure has top and bottom walls, sidewalls extending between the top and bottom walls, and end walls disposed opposite one another. A compressed stack of disposable absorbent products is located in the interior of the enclosure and exerts an expansion force against the end walls from the interior. The compressed stack includes a first disposable absorbent product contacting one of the end walls, which has a portion that is substantially transparent. The first disposable absorbent product includes a graphic display on an outer surface thereof that faces that end wall. No portion of the graphic display is visible through the substantially transparent portion of that end wall.
