Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9823519A1] An assembly of discrete, folded premoistened wipes (50) are disposed one next to another to form a vertical stack (40) within a container (20). Each premoistened wipe (50) extends from a first end edge (52) to a second end edge (54), and each wipe has an edge fold (60) positioned adjacent to and spaced from the first end edge (52). The edge fold (60) provides a double thickness of the wipe adjacent to the end edge (52). The double thickness provided by the edge fold (60) facilitates grasping of the wipe (50) from the container (20). The positions of the edge folds (60) are staggered in a predetermined, repeating manner in the stack (40) in order to maintain a generally uniform stack height.
