ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to an absorbent product having a longitudinal direction and a transverse direction and comprising a front and a rear end portion (8, 10), an intermediate crotch portion (12), edges extending in the longitudinal direction and in the transverse direction, an upper, liquid-permeable surface layer (2), a lower, liquid-impermeable surface layer (4), an absorbent body (6) arranged between the surface layers (2, 4) and comprising edges in the longitudinal direction and in the transverse direction, liquid barriers (5) extending in the longitudinal direction arranged essentially parallel to those edges of the product running in the longitudinal direction, the liquid barriers (5) each having a free edge (7), side flaps (3) extending in the longitudinal direction outside the liquid barriers (5) and comprising parts of at least one of the surface layers (2, 4), and elastic elements (11; 14; 30) extending in the longitudinal direction and fastened to the liquid barriers (5) or to the side flaps (3), the liquid-permeable surface layer (2) extending in the longitudinal direction of the product at least between the liquid barriers (5). The liquid barriers (5) are, at least in the crotch portion (12) of the product, in the region between their attachment (9) to the absorbent product and their free edge (7), fixed to the adjacent side flap (3) outside the edges of the absorbent body (6), as a result of which the product has double raised leakage barriers arranged along the edges extending in the longitudinal direction.
