An absorbent article package assembly of one form includes: a first package body accommodating a plurality of first package bodies in which first absorbent articles are individually packaged with a first packaging sheet; and a second package body that accommodates a plurality of second package bodies in which second absorbent articles having different performance from the first absorbent articles are individually packaged by the second package sheet. The first package and the second package have the same brand name. The outer surface of the first package has a pair of first planes extending in the front-rear direction and the width direction of the first absorbent article and a first side surface arranged between the pair of first planes and extending in the thickness direction of the first absorbent article. The outer surface of the second package has a pair of second planes extending in the front-rear direction and the width direction of the second absorbent article and a second side surface arranged between the pair of second planes and extending in the thickness direction of the second absorbent article. The first package is provided with a first decorative portion disposed toward an outer surface side of the first package. The second package is provided with a second decorative portion different from the first decorative portion and disposed toward an outer surface side of the second package. The first decorative part and the second decorative part comprise at least any one of figures, patterns and designs. The area ratio occupied by the first decorative portion in the first plane and the area ratio occupied by the second decorative portion in the second plane are 15% or more. Since the first absorbent article and the second absorbent article are contained in the package group having the same brand name, the user can obtain the same wearing feeling and the same feeling of ease in the absorbent articles contained in the package group. The user can distinguish the first absorbent article and the second absorbent article based on the first decorative portion and the second decorative portion. At this time, the area ratio of the first decorative portion in the first plane and the area ratio of the second decorative portion in the second plane are 15% or more. The user can easily grasp the surface of the package having a large area, and can easily grasp the first decorative portion and the second decorative portion when visually confirming the plane surfaces of the first package and the second package from the outside. The first decorative part and the second decorative part comprise at least any one of figures, patterns and designs. Therefore, the user can easily and intuitively grasp the difference between the first decorative portion and the second decorative portion, and can easily select an appropriate absorbent article, as compared with the character information composed of only characters.

According to a preferred aspect, the first decorative portion has the same outline as the second decorative portion and has a different color from the second decorative portion. According to this aspect, since the first decorative portion and the second decorative portion have the same outline, the user can intuitively grasp the absorbent article having the same concept based on the outline. Further, since the first decorative portion and the second decorative portion have different colors, the user can distinguish the first absorbent article and the second absorbent article according to the difference in color.

According to a preferred aspect, the first plane of the first package is of a different size than the second plane of the second package. According to this aspect, the first absorbent article and the second absorbent article can be distinguished from each other according to the size of the package. In the configuration in which the outline of the first decorative portion is identical to the outline of the second decorative portion, the ratio of the dimension of the outline of the first decorative portion to the dimension of the first plane is different from the ratio of the dimension of the outline of the second decorative portion to the dimension of the second plane. The user can distinguish the first absorbent article from the second absorbent article according to the difference in the dimensional ratio of the contour lines.

According to a preferred aspect, the first package has a first fastening tape that fastens the outer edge of the first package sheet in the first plane to the first package sheet facing each other. The second package has a second securing strap securing an outer edge of the second package sheet in the second plane to the second package sheet in the opposite direction. The first fastening strap has the same size as the second fastening strap. In a structure in which the size of the first plane is different from the size of the second plane, the ratio of the first fastening tape in the first plane is different from the ratio of the second fastening tape in the second plane. The user can distinguish the first absorbent article from the second absorbent article according to the difference in the ratio.

According to a preferred embodiment, the first decorative portion is disposed at a distance from each other in the thickness direction of the first absorbent article in the unfolded state of the first package. The second decorative portion is disposed at an interval in the thickness direction of the second absorbent article in the unfolded state of the second package. The interval of the first decorative portion is shorter than the length of the first side surface in the thickness direction. The interval of the second decorative portion is shorter than the length of the second side surface in the thickness direction. According to this aspect, the first decorative portion is disposed on the first side surface, and the second decorative portion is disposed on the second side surface. Therefore, even when the package group is displayed in a state in which the first package and the second package are stacked in the thickness direction and are contained in the containing bag, the user can distinguish the first absorbent article and the second absorbent article based on the first decorative portion and the second decorative portion.

According to a preferred embodiment, the first decorative portion is disposed in at least a first central region located at the center in the width direction, among regions obtained by trisecting the first plane in the width direction. The second decorative portion is disposed in at least a second central region located at the center in the width direction, among regions obtained by trisecting the second plane in the width direction. The first central region and the second central region are located at the center of the package in the width direction, and are regions that are easily noticeable to the user. According to this aspect, the first decorative portion and the second decorative portion can be easily recognized by the user, and the first absorbent article and the second absorbent article can be more easily distinguished.

According to a preferred aspect, the first package has a first side engaging portion for engaging outer end portions of the first package sheet with each other. The second package has a second side engaging portion that engages outer end portions of the second package sheet with each other. The first decorative portion is separated from the first side engaging portion. The second decorative portion is separated from the second side engaging portion. According to this aspect, even when the first packaging sheet is twisted or wrinkled in the vicinity of the first side joining portion, the first decorative portion can be maintained in the planar state, and visual visibility of the first decorative portion can be ensured. Similarly, even when the second packaging sheet is twisted or wrinkled in the vicinity of the second side portion joining portion, the second decorative portion can be maintained in a planar state, and visual visibility of the second decorative portion can be ensured.

According to a preferred embodiment, the first package and the second package are respectively provided with a brand display portion indicating the brand name and a package background portion disposed around the brand display portion. The first package has a first background portion disposed around the first decorative portion. The second package has a second background portion disposed around the second decorative portion. The brand display portion, the package body background portion, the first background portion, and the second background portion have the same color. According to this aspect, the user can further obtain the same wearing feeling and the same feeling of ease in the absorbent article included in the package group by recognizing the same color.

According to a preferred embodiment, the first package has a first background portion disposed around the first decorative portion. The second package has a second background portion disposed around the second decorative portion. The first decorative portion has a different color from the first background portion. The second decorative portion has a different color from the second background portion. The first background portion and the second background portion have the same color. According to this aspect, the first absorbent article and the second absorbent article can be associated with each other by the first background portion and the second background portion, and the user can further obtain the same wearing feeling and the same feeling of mind in the absorbent articles included in the package group by recognizing the same color. Further, since the first decorative portion and the second decorative portion are different colors, the first absorbent article and the second absorbent article can be distinguished from each other according to the difference in color. In this case, the color of the background portion of each decorative portion is common, and therefore, the difference between the color of the first absorbent article and the color of the second absorbent article tends to become more remarkable. Thus, the user can easily grasp the same concept based on the same color of the background portion, and can easily grasp the difference in the absorbent article based on the decorative portion.

According to a preferred embodiment, the first package is provided with at least three colors that can be visually checked from the outside of the first package. At least three colors which can be visually confirmed from the outside of the first package are provided in the second package. At least two colors of the three colors of the first package are provided in the first decorative portion. At least two colors of the three colors of the second package are provided in the second decorative portion. According to this aspect, since each package has three colors, it is easy to draw attention of the user as compared with a single-color package. Further, since the decorative portion has a plurality of colors, the decorative portion in the package can be made conspicuous, and the number of elements (colors) that can be distinguished in appearance can be increased. Thus, the first decorative portion and the second decorative portion can be easily recognized by the user, and the first absorbent article and the second absorbent article can be more easily distinguished.

According to a preferred embodiment, the first decorative portion and the second decorative portion have the same color. According to this aspect, the first and second absorbent articles can be associated with each other by the same color of the first and second decorative portions, and the user can further obtain the same wearing feeling and the same feeling of ease in the absorbent articles included in the package group by recognizing the same color.

According to a preferred embodiment, the first package has a first background portion disposed around the first decorative portion.

According to this aspect, the first peripheral element is different in color from the first central element, and the first peripheral element is also different in color from the first background portion, so that the first central element can be separated from the first background portion by the first peripheral element, and the first central element can be more easily recognized. For example, even in a form in which the color of the first central element is similar to the color of the first background portion, the first central element can be shown separately from the surroundings, and the user can recognize the first central element more easily. Likewise, the second central element can be separated from the second background portion by the second peripheral element, and the second central element can be more easily recognized.

According to a preferred aspect, the first package includes a first release sheet covering an adhesive portion disposed on a non-skin surface of the first absorbent article. The second package has a second release sheet that covers an adhesive portion disposed on a non-skin surface of the second absorbent article. The first decorative part is arranged on the first stripping sheet. The second decorative part is arranged on the second stripping sheet. According to this aspect, the first decorative portion and the second decorative portion are covered and protected by the first package sheet and the second package sheet. Thus, the function of selecting the absorbent article by the first decorative portion and the second decorative portion can be continuously exhibited.

According to a preferred embodiment, the area ratio of the first decorative portion in the first release sheet in the first plane and the area ratio of the second decorative portion in the second release sheet in the second plane are 1/3 or more. According to this aspect, the area ratio of the first decorative portion in the first release sheet of the first plane and the area ratio of the second decorative portion in the second release sheet of the second plane are 1/3 or more. When visually checking the plane surfaces of the first package and the second package from the outside, the user can easily grasp the first decorative portion and the second decorative portion, and can easily select an appropriate absorbent article.

According to a preferred aspect, the first decorative portion is a similar shape to the second decorative portion. According to this aspect, the first decorative portion and the second decorative portion are similar in shape, and the user can intuitively grasp the absorbent article having the same concept. Here, the similar shape does not include a case where both are the same shape. Therefore, since the first decorative portion and the second decorative portion show the same concept and have different shapes, the first absorbent article and the second absorbent article can be distinguished from each other according to the difference in shape.

By providing the decorative portion 70 on the inner side (the release sheet or the back sheet) than the outer surface of the package, the decorative portion 70 can be covered with the package sheet 80 in the packaged state. By protecting the first decorative portion 71 and the second decorative portion 72, visual confirmation of the decorative portions can be ensured even when the surface of the package rubs. Thus, the function of selecting the absorbent article by the first decorative portion 71 and the second decorative portion 72 can be continuously exhibited.

The first decorative portion 71 of the present embodiment is provided on the first package sheet 81 side surface of the first release sheet 27, and the second decorative portion 72 is provided on the second package sheet 82 side surface of the second release sheet 28. The decorative portion 70 can be visually checked by a user from the outer surface side of the package via the package sheet 80. In a mode in which the decorative portion 70 is provided on the back sheet 24 or the release sheet, the total light transmittance of the package sheet 80 may be 50% or more. The light transmittance of the entire area of the package sheet 80 may not be 50% or more, as long as the light transmittance of the area overlapping the decorative portion 70 is 50% or more. Here, the "light transmittance" was measured in accordance with JIS K7105-7136. The light transmittance can be measured by using, for example, a haze meter (model NDH700P 2) manufactured by japan electric color industry co.

The decorative portion 70 may be formed of at least one of a figure, a pattern, and a pattern (such as a stripe or a bead), and the decorative property of the absorbent article can be improved. The decoration portion 70 may include letters and numerals, but may not include a display composed of only letters and numerals. The decorative portion of the present embodiment is formed of a flower pattern. The first decorative portion 71 is different from the second decorative portion 72. More specifically, the first decorative portion 71 and the second decorative portion 72 may be different in at least one of color, shape, size, and pattern. The first decorative portion 71 and the second decorative portion 72 of the present embodiment have the same outline and have different colors.

The decorative portion 70 may be provided on at least one of a pair of planes of the package, but may be disposed on both of the pair of planes. The area ratio occupied by the first decorative portion 71 in the first plane and the area ratio occupied by the second decorative portion 72 in the second plane are 15% or more. The area ratio of the first decorative portion 71 may be 15% or more in at least one of the first unsealing plane 11X and the first non-unsealing plane 11Y, and the area ratio of the first decorative portion 71 may be preferably 15% or more in both the first unsealing plane 11X and the first non-unsealing plane 11Y. Similarly, the area ratio of the second decorative portion 72 may be 15% or more in at least one of the second unsealing plane 12X and the second non-unsealing plane 12Y, and the area ratio of the second decorative portion 72 may be preferably 15% or more in both the second unsealing plane 12X and the second non-unsealing plane 12Y. The area ratio can be measured in the package in the extended state, and can be calculated by the area of the decorative portion and the area of the plane. In the boundary with the side surface in the plane, a surface to be seen by placing the package on a flat table and visually checking the package from above can be defined as a plane, and an outer edge of the seen surface can be defined as a boundary.

Since the first absorbent article 21 and the second absorbent article 22 are included in the package group having the same brand name, the user can obtain the same wearing feeling and the same feeling of ease in the absorbent articles included in the package group. The user can distinguish the first absorbent article 21 and the second absorbent article 22 based on the first decorative portion 71 and the second decorative portion 72. At this time, the area ratio of the first decorative portion 71 in the first plane and the area ratio of the second decorative portion 72 in the second plane are 15% or more. The user can easily grasp the surface of the package having a large area, and can easily grasp the first decorative portion 71 and the second decorative portion 72 when visually confirming the plane of the first package and the plane of the second package from the outside, and can easily select an appropriate absorbent article. In particular, when the absorbent article is used in a relatively dark place such as a toilet or when the absorbent article is selected by a user who has visual difficulty in visually seeing letters due to the aged people or the like, if the absorbent article is to be selected based on the letter information, it may be difficult to grasp the information and the absorbent article may not be properly selected. However, according to this package group, the first absorbent article 21 and the second absorbent article can be distinguished by the decorative portion made up of a pattern or the like, not by the display made up of only characters, so that the user is not forced to increase the visual load, and the absorbent articles can be intuitively distinguished, so that an appropriate absorbent article can be selected.

The area ratio of the first decorative portion 71 in the first release sheet 27 of the first plane 11X, 11Y and the area ratio of the second decorative portion 72 in the second release sheet 28 of the second plane 12X, 12Y may be 1/3 or more. The area ratio of the first decorative portion 71 in the first release sheet 27 of the first plane 11X, 11Y is the ratio of the area of the first decorative portion 71 to the area of the first release sheet 27 disposed on the first plane 11X, 11Y, and the area ratio of the second decorative portion 72 in the second release sheet 28 of the second plane 12X, 12Y is the ratio of the area of the second decorative portion 72 to the area of the second release sheet 28 disposed on the second plane 12X, 12Y. When the user visually confirms the surface of the second decorative portion 72 with respect to the area of the second release sheet 28 disposed on the first plane 11X, 11Y and the second plane 12X, 12Y, the user can easily grasp the first decorative portion 71 and the second decorative portion 72, and can easily select an appropriate absorbent article.

The first decorative portion 71 may have the same outline as the second decorative portion 72, and have a different color from the second decorative portion 72. The same outline is the outer edge of the decorative part, and is the outline of the flower-shaped pattern in the present embodiment. Since the first decorative portion 71 and the second decorative portion 72 have the same outline, the user can intuitively grasp the absorbent article having the same concept based on the outline. Further, since the first decorative portion 71 and the second decorative portion 72 have different colors, the first absorbent article 21 and the second absorbent article can be distinguished from each other according to the difference in color. Hereinafter, the difference in color includes not only a structure of different hues (blue and red) but also a structure of different brightness. In the following, the plurality of colors may be different from each other in at least one color, and may be the same color.

The color difference Δe between the first decorative portion 71 and the second decorative portion 72 may be 20 or more. The applicant conducted a careful investigation, knowing that: in general, when the color difference Δe of two-dot colors is 20 or more, the two dots are easily recognized as different colors. According to this aspect, since the color difference Δe between the first decorative portion 71 and the second decorative portion 72 is 20 or more, the user can recognize the first decorative portion 71 and the second decorative portion 72 as different decorative portions, and can select the first absorbent article 21 and the second absorbent article as different absorbent articles. The color difference Δe can be obtained by measuring colors at two points (two areas) to be measured using a commercially available color measuring instrument, and comparing the values obtained by the numerical analysis based on CIE1976 (l×a×b) color space defined in JIS Z8729. Specifically, when the difference in L values between two points to be measured is Δl, the difference in a is Δa, and the difference in b is Δb, the difference in color is calculated by Δe= [ (Δl) ² +(Δa*) ² +(Δb*) ² ] ^1/2 And the result was obtained.

The first decorative portion 71 and the second decorative portion 72 may have the same color. Here, the same color may be a color having a color difference Δe of 20.0 or less, and more preferably, the color difference Δe may be 12.0 or less. By making the first decorative portion 71 and the second decorative portion 72 the same color, the first absorbent article 21 and the second absorbent article 22 can be associated, and the user can recognize the same color, thereby further obtaining the same wearing feeling and the same feeling of ease in the absorbent articles included in the package group. In a form in which the first decorative portion 71 has a plurality of colors, the first color may be the same color as the second decorative portion 72, and the second color may be a different color from the second decorative portion 72.

In the modification, the first decorative portion 71 may have a similar shape to the second decorative portion 72. The first decorative portion 71 and the second decorative portion 72 have the same shape and different sizes. The user can grasp the absorbent articles which are the same concept according to the shape, and can distinguish the first absorbent article 21 and the second absorbent article 22 according to the difference in the size. In addition, the first decorative portion 71 may be of a similar shape to the second decorative portion 72. The first decorative portion 71 and the second decorative portion 72 are similar in shape, and a user can intuitively grasp the same concept of the absorbent article. Here, the similar shape does not include a case where both are the same shape. Therefore, since the first decorative portion 71 and the second decorative portion 72 represent the same concept and have different shapes, the first absorbent article 21 and the second absorbent article can be distinguished from each other according to the difference in shape. A similar shape may be a shape having a shape that can recall a common concept. More specifically, when the first decorative portion 71 and the second decorative portion 72 can be thought of as the same concept of "flower", they have similar shapes. In addition, as other similar shapes, a shape having a geometric pattern having the same elements may be used. The same elements refer to peaks, recesses, curved portions, and straight portions constituting the geometric pattern. The same number and kind of the elements are set to be similar. More specifically, when the number of vertices of the first decorative portion 71 is the same as the number of vertices of the second decorative portion 72, the two are similar in shape, and when the number of concave portions and vertices of the first decorative portion 71 is the same as the number of concave portions and vertices of the second decorative portion 72, the degree of similarity is high.

The dimensions of the first planes 11X, 11Y of the first package 11 may be different from the dimensions of the second planes 12X, 12Y of the second package 12. The dimensions are a concept including the length in the front-rear direction L and the length in the width direction W, and the lengths in the front-rear direction L of the first planes 11X and 11Y may be different from the lengths in the front-rear direction L of the second planes 12X and 12Y, and the lengths in the width direction W of the first planes 11X and 11Y may be different from the lengths in the width direction W of the second planes 12X and 12Y. According to this structure, the first absorbent article 21 and the second absorbent article 22 can be distinguished according to the difference in size of the package. In a form in which the outline of the first decorative portion 71 is identical to the outline of the second decorative portion 72, the ratio of the outline to the dimension of the plane of the package 10 is different between the first absorbent article 21 and the second absorbent article. The first absorbent article 21 and the second absorbent article can be distinguished from each other according to the difference in the ratio. As shown in fig. 1 and 4, the length L11 of the first plane 11X, 11Y in the front-rear direction L of the present embodiment is different from the length L12 of the second plane 12X, 12Y in the front-rear direction L. That is, the interval between the front fold FW2 and the rear fold FW1 of the first absorbent article 21 is different from the interval between the front fold FW2 and the rear fold FW1 of the second absorbent article 22.

The first fastening tape 85 may be the same size as the second fastening tape 86. The same dimensions of the fastening tape may be substantially the same, and manufacturing errors (for example, within ±5%) may be regarded as the same dimensions. As shown in fig. 4, in the structure in which the dimensions of the first planes 11X, 11Y are different from those of the second planes 12X, 12Y, the ratio of the first fastening tape 85 in the first planes 11X, 11Y is different from the ratio of the second fastening tape in the second planes. The user can distinguish the first absorbent article 21 from the second absorbent article 22 according to the difference in the ratio. The dimensions of the fastening tape include the length in the front-rear direction L and the length in the width direction W of the fastening tape, as long as either one is the same. However, it is preferable that the length of the first fastening tape 85 be different from the length of the second fastening tape 86 in the direction in which the lengths of the first planes 11X, 11Y are different from the lengths of the second planes 12X, 12Y (the front-rear direction in the present embodiment). This is because the difference in the ratio of the fastening tape to the whole of the package is more likely to become more remarkable.

As shown in fig. 2, the first decorative portion 71 may be disposed at intervals in the thickness direction T of the first absorbent article 21 in the unfolded state of the first package 11, and the second decorative portion 72 may be disposed at intervals in the thickness direction T of the second absorbent article 22 in the unfolded state of the second package 12. The interval G71 of the first decorative portion 71 may be shorter than the length of the first side surface in the thickness direction T, and the interval G72 of the second decorative portion 72 may be shorter than the length of the second side surface in the thickness direction T. At least a part of the first decorative portion 71 is disposed on the first side surface of the first package 11. Therefore, the user can grasp the first decorative portion 71 when visually checking the first side surface. Similarly, at least a part of the second decorative portion 72 is disposed on the second side surface of the second package 12. Therefore, the user can grasp the second decorative portion 72 when visually checking the second side surface. Even when the package group is displayed in a state in which the first package 11 and the second package 12 are stacked in the thickness direction and are contained in the containing bag 90, the user can distinguish the first absorbent article 21 and the second absorbent article by the first decorative portion 71 and the second decorative portion 72.

As shown in fig. 3, the first package 11 includes a first central region R11 located at the center in the width direction and a first side region R12 located outside the first central region R11 in the width direction W, among the regions obtained by trisecting the first package 11 in the packaged state in the width direction W. Similarly, the second package 12 includes a second central region R21 located at the center in the width direction W and a second side region R22 located outside the second central region R21 in the width direction W, among the regions obtained by trisecting the second package 12 in the packaged state in the width direction W. The first decorative portion 71 may be disposed at least in the first central region R11, and the second decorative portion 72 may be disposed at least in the second central region R21. The first central region R11 and the second central region R21 are easily noticeable to the user. Since the first decorative portion 71 is disposed in the first central region R11 and the second decorative portion 72 is disposed in the second central region R21, the first decorative portion 71 and the second decorative portion 72 can be easily recognized by the user, and the first absorbent article 21 and the second absorbent article 22 can be more easily distinguished.

Further, at least a part of the first decorative portion 71 may be disposed in the first central region R11, but it is preferable that at least a part of the widthwise center 71CW of the first decorative portion 71 may be disposed in the first central region R11. Similarly, at least a part of the second decorative portion 72 may be disposed in the second central region R21, but preferably, at least a part of the widthwise center 72CW of the second decorative portion 72 may be disposed in the second central region R21. When the user visually confirms the first central region R11 and the second central region R21, the center of the first decorative portion 71 and the center of the second decorative portion 72 enter the visual field, and the entire first decorative portion 71 and the entire second decorative portion 72 can be easily recognized. Thus, the user can more easily distinguish the first absorbent article 21 and the second absorbent article 22 by the ornamental portion.

The first decorative portion 71 may be disposed in the first side region R12 of one of the first central region R11 and the pair of first side regions R12, and more preferably may be disposed in both of the first central region R11 and the pair of first side regions R12. The first decorative portion 71 is disposed on the entire first plane, and the user can easily grasp the first decorative portion 71. The second decorative portion 72 may be disposed in the second side region R22 of one of the second central region R21 and the pair of second side regions R22, and more preferably may be disposed in both of the second central region R21 and the pair of second side regions R22. The second decorative portion 72 is disposed on the entire second plane, and the user can easily grasp the second decorative portion 72.

The first decorative portion 71 may be separated from the first side engaging portion 87, and the second decorative portion 72 may be separated from the second side engaging portion 88. Since the first side joint portion 87 is separated from the first decorative portion 71, even when the first package sheet 81 is twisted or wrinkled in the vicinity of the first side joint portion 87, the first decorative portion 71 can be maintained in a planar state, and visual visibility of the first decorative portion 71 can be ensured. Similarly, since the second side joining portion 88 is separated from the second decorative portion 72, even when the second package sheet 82 is twisted or wrinkled in the vicinity of the second side joining portion 88, the second decorative portion 72 can be maintained in a planar state, and visual confirmation of the second decorative portion 72 can be ensured. The distance between the first decorative portion 71 and the first side joint portion 87 and the distance between the second decorative portion 72 and the second side joint portion 88 may be greater than 0mm, but preferably 5mm or more, more preferably 10mm or more.

The first package 11 may have a first background portion 75 disposed around the first decorative portion 71. The first background portion 75 is disposed toward the outer surface of the first package 11, as in the first decorative portion 71. The first background portion 75 may be configured to be visually identifiable from the outer surface side of the first package 11. The first background portion 75 of the present embodiment includes a region in which the first release sheet 27 is disposed around the first decorative portion 71, and a region in which the back sheet 24 of the first absorbent article 21 is disposed without the first release sheet 27, and only the first wrapping sheet 81 is disposed. Likewise, the second package 12 may have a second background portion 76 disposed around the second decorative portion 72. The second background portion 76 is disposed toward the outer surface of the second package 12, as in the second decorative portion 72. The second background portion 76 may be configured to be visually identifiable from the outer surface side of the second package 12. The second background portion 76 of the present embodiment includes a region in which the second release sheet 28 is disposed around the second decorative portion 72, and a region in which the back sheet 24 of the second absorbent article 22 is disposed without the second release sheet 28, and only the second package sheet 82 is disposed.

In one embodiment, the first decorative portion 71 may have a different color from the first background portion 75, and the second decorative portion 72 may have a different color from the second background portion 76. The user can distinguish the first decorative portion 71 from the first background portion 75 and distinguish the second decorative portion 72 from the second background portion 76. In this one aspect, the first background portion 75 and the second background portion 76 may have the same color. The user can associate the first absorbent article 21 with the second absorbent article by using the first background portion 75 and the second background portion 76, and the user can further obtain the same wearing feeling and the same feeling of mind in the absorbent articles included in the package group by recognizing the same color. In the form in which the first background portion 75 and the second background portion 76 are the same color, the first decorative portion 71 and the second decorative portion 72 may be the same color, and any of the shapes and the sizes of the first decorative portion 71 and the second decorative portion 72 may be different, or the first decorative portion 71 and the second decorative portion 72 may be different colors.

In the modification, the first background portion 75 and the second background portion 76 may be different in color. In this modification, the user can distinguish the absorbent article not only by the first decorative portion 71 and the second decorative portion 72 but also by the first background portion 75 and the second background portion 76, and it is easier to select an appropriate absorbent article from a plurality of absorbent articles.

The first decorative portion 71 may have a first central element 71P and a first peripheral element 71Q, and the first peripheral element 71Q may be disposed around the first central element 71P and have a different color from the first central element 71P and the first background portion 75. The first peripheral element 71Q is different in color from the first central element 71P, and the first peripheral element 71Q is also different in color from the first background portion 75, so that the first central element 71P can be separated from the first background portion 75 by the first peripheral element 71Q, and the first central element 71P can be recognized more easily. For example, even in a form in which the color of the first central element 71P is similar to the color of the first background portion 75, the first central element 71P can be shown separately from the surroundings, and the user can recognize the first central element 71P more easily. Similarly, the second decorative portion 72 may have a second central element 72P and a second peripheral element 72Q, the second peripheral element 72Q being disposed around the second central element 72P and having a different color from the second central element 72P and the second background portion 76. According to this configuration, the second peripheral element 72Q can separate the second central element 72P from the second background portion 76, and the second central element 72P can be more easily recognized.

The first center element 71P and the second center element 72P may be formed by the outline of the decorative portion 70, and may be formed by covering at least a part of the periphery of each center element, or may not be disposed entirely around each center element. In the form in which the first central element 71P and the second central element 72P are the same color, the first peripheral element 71Q and the second peripheral element 72Q may be different colors. In the form in which the first central element 71P and the second central element 72P are of different colors, the first peripheral element 71Q and the second peripheral element 72Q may be of the same color. According to this aspect, the same color can be used to represent the same concept of the absorbent article, and different colors can be used to represent different absorbent articles. In the modification, the first decorative portion and the second decorative portion may have the same shape, and the first central element 71P, the second central element 72P, the first peripheral element 71Q, and the second peripheral element 72Q may all have different colors.
