Abstract (en)

[origin: EP3398865A1] A method for packing absorbent articles, the method including: a forming process in which a plurality of folded diapers (1) are inserted into a packaging member (3) to form a package (10); a loading process in which the package (10) is compressed in a compression direction and a package bundle (15) configured by a plurality of the packages (10) is loaded into a cardboard box (20), the package bundle (15) being loaded into the cardboard box (20) in a state in which a length of the package bundle (15) in the compression direction is shorter than an internal dimension of the cardboard box (20) in the compression direction due to compression of the packages (10); and a contacting process in which the loaded package bundle (15) is allowed to expand in an opposite direction to the compression direction so as to cause two ends of the package bundle (15) in the opposite direction to contact an inner face of the cardboard box (20).
