Method of forming an absorbent article

摘要

A method for producing an absorbent article in which a backsheet layer is provided. A hinged cutout section is formed in the backsheet and defines a hinged line. The hinged cutout section is folded along the hinge line to define a vapor-permeable panel. An absorbent body is positioned on the backsheet layer, and a liquid-permeable topsheet layer is positioned in facing relation with the backsheet layer. The absorbent body and the folded, hinged cutout section are located between the topsheet layer and the backsheet layer.
