A bifurcated absorbent article such as a diaper comprises an arrangement of fasteners 26-29 which enables the end parts 10,11 of diaper in use to be fastened to each other around the wearer's waist and also allows the diaper to be rolled up or folded up after use and the sides fastened together for disposal. The arrangement is such that any one fastener e.g. 26 is able to be connected to either of corresponding fasteners 27,28, located laterally and longitudinally respectively of the fastener 26. The fasteners 26-29 may be of the hook and loop type, press studs or poppers, buttons and button holes, or profiles of coacting S-shaped and U-shaped profiled parts (figures 12 and 13, not shown). The fasteners may all be on the same side of the diaper for ease of manufacture. |
