Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2016040093A1] An absorbent article for personal hygiene comprises a longitudinal axis, a transversal axis perpendicular to the longitudinal axis, a liquid permeable topsheet and an acquisition layer. A width of the acquisition layer in a direction parallel to the transversal axis is less than a width of the topsheet in a direction parallel to the transversal axis. The absorbent article further comprises a topsheet/acquisition layer laminate wherein the liquid permeable topsheet and the acquisition layer are in a face to face relationship. The topsheet/acquisition layer laminate comprises three-dimensional protrusions extending from a plane of the topsheet/acquisition layer laminate. The topsheet and acquisition layer are nested together such that a majority of the three-dimensional protrusions formed in the topsheet coincide with and fit together with a majority of the three-dimensional protrusions formed in the acquisition layer to provide a topsheet/acquisition layer laminate having three-dimensional protrusions.
