The present invention relates to an absorbent disposable article, such as a diaper, an incontinence guard or a sanitary napkin. According to the invention, the absorbent pad (3) of the article is divided in the crotch region of the article into mutually separate parts (3B-3E) which extend in the longitudinal direction of the article and which are mutually separated, in the crotch region, by means of intermediate, mutually attached parts of the two article casing layers (1, 2). Transverse elastication (6, 7) is provided within the region of the mutually separate parts of the absorbent pad such as to bring the edges of adjacent separate parts into mutual abutment while gathering together intermediate parts of the mutually joined casing layers. This construction produces a three-dimensional article which can be manufactured in a flat state. |
