Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2013159273A1] A pull-on disposable absorbent article (20) having a fit indicator is disclosed. The pull-on disposable absorbent article (20) has an extensible belt (11) transversely disposed with respect to a chassis portion (10). The belt portion (11) of the pull-on article (20) is provided with a fit indicator graphic (120). When the belt portion (11) of the article (20) is unstretched, the fit indicator graphic (120) has a first appearance (123, 223). When the belt portion (11) of the article (20) is stretched to its design range for wear, the fit indicator graphic (120) has a second appearance (125, 225). When the belt portion (11) of the article (20) is stretched beyond its design range for wear, the fit indicator graphic (120) has a third appearance (127, 227). By conforming that the configuration of the fit indicator graphic (120) is in the second appearance (125, 225) in wear, the proper fit of the disposable absorbent article (20) may be verified. Uses of the fit indicator graphics (120) in combination with reference graphics (122) and in arrays of the disposable absorbent articles (20) are also disclosed.
