ABSORBENT PRODUCT WITH IMPROVED FIT.

摘要

Absorbent product, such as a sanitary towel, with a stiffening element (6) which is intended to contribute to the three-dimensional shape of the product during its use. The stiffening element (6) is in a plane state before use of the product and extends in the longitudinal direction of the product over the crotch portion (3) and at least some way in over the front portion (1). The stiffening element (6) has a width (M) at the transition (12) between the crotch portion (3) and the front portion (1) which is adapted to the distance between the muscle tendons of the wearer on both sides of the crotch of the wearer in the groin of the latter and which is of the order of 15-45 mm. The crotch portion (3) has a length (G) of in the order of 70-120 mm. The side edges of the stiffening element (6) in the front portion (1) of the product diverge in the direction from the crotch portion (3) at least some way in over the front portion (1) and there form an acute angle (alpha) with a line in the longitudinal direction of the product.
