Abstract (en)
[origin: WO0013633A1] Absorbent product (1; 101, 201) such as an incontinence pad, for absorbing bodily exudates, the absorbent product having a central absorbent portion (2; 102; 202) and a fluid-impermeable back sheet. The central absorbent portion (2; 102; 202) is attached to two lateral portions (13, 14; 113, 114; 213, 214) by means of a joining area (21) which includes at least the back sheet. In the product, the stiffness of each lateral portion (13, 14; 113, 114; 213, 214) and the central portion (2; 102; 202) is much greater than the stiffness of the joining area to thereby allow the lateral portions to move laterally with respect to the central portion when the central portion is held against movement. In this way, the lateral portions are given freedom to move in at least a lateral direction whilst the central portion can be fixed to a user's undergarment.
