Abstract: A wet wipes package including an outer carton having an opening. Disposed within the carton is an interior tub having a baffle and an aperture located in the baffle. A rigid flip top is disposed over the carton opening for access to the interior tub and a plurality of wet wipes is disposed within the interior tub beneath the baffle. Because the exterior of the wet wipes package is similar to a facial tissue carton, similar graphical treatments as applied to facial tissue cartons can be used to design an attractive package.

Abstract: A method for foaming a liquid-based composition, such as a softening composition, onto a tissue is provided. The foam composition can be formed in a foam generator by combining the liquid-based composition and a gas, such as air. The foam composition has a blow ratio, i.e, ratio of air volume to liquid volume, greater than about 3:1. Moreover, the foam composition is also generally stable such that it has a half-life greater than about 3 minutes. In one embodiment, a tissue product having elevated regions and non-elevated regions can be foamed with a foam composition such that the elevated regions are applied with a greater amount of the foam composition than the non-elevated regions.

Abstract: The present invention is generally directed to a softening composition that can be applied to a fibrous web, such as a tissue. In one embodiment, the softening composition contains up to about 40% by weight of a silicone polymer, up to about 20% by weight of a silicone polyether, up to about 20% by weight of a softness-enhancing agent; and up to about 40% by weight of a solvent. Other components, such as odor control agents, foaming aids, etc., can also be incorporated into the softening composition.

Abstract: A tissue with two surfaces having elevated regions is provided. The elevated regions can be imparted onto the surfaces of the tissue utilizing various papermaking techniques and devices, such as using patterned fabrics, wire-mesh, and/or pressure rolls. A tissue of the present invention can have a substantial fiber density gradient in the -z direction and a relatively low fiber density gradient in the x-y plane. Moreover, the tissue can also have a substantial pore size distribution gradient in the -z direction and a relatively low pore size distribution gradient in the x-y plane for improved absorption properties.
