An absorbent pad to be used in food products packages. Said pad effectively absorbs juices or liquids from food, and is characterized in that it comprises an upper and a lower plastic layers; an intermediate layer and optionally a fabric or absorbent paper layer. The intermediate absorbent layer is formed by an absorbent material and absorbent fibers, which are homogeneously distributed along the same. At least one of the plastic layers is perforated so as to allow the liquid to flow towards the absorbent layer; the said perforations are conical-shaped in order to avoid the liquid to be absorbed by the food again. The pad may include a seal at the periphery thereof, or the upper and lower plastic layers may be joined therebetween but only by their two opposite ends. The disclosure embodies a plurality of protruding channels, which are crosslinked therebetween; the said channels along with the superabsorbent fibers facilitate the liquid distribution all over the absorbent layer.
