The absorbent article includes a belt (9,9') attached to a back (6) and front (5) portions of the absorbent article so that the article assumes a pantlike shape. The belt forms part of the waist portion of the pant and has two belt halves (9,9') that at one of their ends are permanently attached to the topsheet within bonding areas (13,13') on the insides (12,12') of the waist portion via reinforcement pieces so that the belt halves remain substantially flat along their entire length when brought against the topsheet on top of each other. The joints (14,14') that are formed at the bonding areas are pressed outwards in directions away from the user when the absorbent article is used. An Independent claim is included for a method of manufacturing the above absorbent article. |
