Abstract
A band-fastened packaging for containing absorbent articles includes a pocket component for housing the articles. The pocket component includes a front and back wall, with at least the front wall defining an opening into the pocket component. At least the front and back walls form a packaging closed end. A packaging flap is hingedly connected to the back wall for covering the opening, the packaging flap including a flap wall having an outermost flap wall edge. A band-fastener is attached to the outermost flap wall edge. The band-fastener is capable of separating from the outermost flap wall edge between two spaced-apart points, and includes a flap-facing inner edge. The packaging closed end may be inserted between the outermost flap wall edge and band-fastener, flap-facing inner edge in order to maintain the packaging in a closed configuration.
