Abstract
Absorbent article, such as a diaper and an incontinence guard, comprising a liquid-pervious topsheet (2), a liquid-impervious backsheet (3), and an absorbent body (4). The article exhibits a front portion (5), a rear portion (6), a crotch portion (7), and a belt (9, 9′) attached to or intended to be attached to the rear portion (6) and to the front portion (5), so that the article assumes a pant-like shape. On both the outside and the inside, at least one belt portion (9′) carries a receiving material (12, 13) which can serve as a receiving area for an attachment material (10) on a second belt portion (9) and on one or several attachment means (8, 8′) attached to the front portion (5) of the article. The receiving area (12, 13) also enables reattachment of said attachment material. The attachment material (8a, 8b, 8′a, 8′b) is arranged on both a first and second main surface of at least one of the attachment means when this is in an unfolded position, wherein the belt (9, 9′) carries the receiving material (12, 13) across substantially its entire outside and inside.
