Abstract

L'invention concerne un article absorbant, tel qu'une serviette hygiénique, destiné à être fixé au corps ou au sous-vêtement de l'utilisateur/utilisatrice. Un adhésif est fixé à la surface côté corps ou à la surface côté vêtement, de sorte que l'article absorbant soit maintenu en contact intime, respectivement avec le corps ou le sous-vêtement de l'utilisateur/utilisatrice, lorsqu'il est utilisé. Ledit article absorbant comporte également une pochette fixée à la couche écran, prévue à proximité de la surface côté sous-vêtement de l'utilisateur/utilisatrice, facilitant le retrait de l'article absorbant du corps ou du sous-vêtement de l'utilisateur/utilisatrice. La pochette possède une partie fixe et une partie ouverte médiane qui peut être saisie ou dans laquelle une partie de la main de l'utilisateur/utilisatrice peut être insérée, de sorte que le retrait de l'article absorbant du corps ou du sous-vêtement de l'utilisateur/utilisatrice soit facilité. La partie ouverte de la pochette permet de jeter de manière hygiénique ladite serviette hygiénique, après qu'elle a été pliée en deux le long de son axe transversal, et que la partie ouverte de la pochette a été roulée sur ses extrémités transversales, de manière que la serviette soit maintenue en position pliée.
