METHOD OF DISCRETELY PACKAGING ABSORBENT ARTICLE

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED : To provide a method for discretely packing absorbent articles which makes each article convenient to carry and eliminates the need for the re-correcting of the trace left in the folding of the cover sheet during the wearing thereof by folding the sanitary napkins in a compact form while enabling the prevention of the spillage of the body liquors or the like. SOLUTION : In the absorbent article, the body thereof is made up of at least a liquid permeable top sheet, a liquid impermeable back sheet and an absorbent interposed between the sheets. A fastening part to be stuck on the internal surface of the underwear is formed on the external surface of the back sheet of the body and the surface of the fastening part is stuck with the cover sheet. The cover sheet is folded inward along a plurality of folding lines set in the direction orthogonal to the longitudinal direction thereof and then, folded in two in the direction thus set orthogonal.
