Abstract

A package including a stack of absorbent tissue paper material and a packaging, wherein, in the stack, the absorbent tissue paper material forms panels having a length, and a width perpendicular to the length, the panels being piled on top of each other to form a height extending between a first end surface and a second end surface of the stack; the absorbent tissue paper material including at least a structured tissue material, the stack, when in the package, having a selected packing density D 0 of 0.20 to 0.65 kg/dm 3 , and exerting a force along the height of the stack towards the packaging, the packaging encircling the stack so as to maintain the stack in a compressed condition with the selected packing density D 0.

Claims (29)

1. A package comprising a stack of absorbent tissue paper material and a packaging, wherein, in said stack, the absorbent tissue paper material forms panels having a length, and a width perpendicular to said length, said panels being piled on top of each other to form a height extending between a first end surface and a second end surface of the stack;

the absorbent tissue paper material comprising at least a structured tissue material, wherein the absorbent tissue paper material has a density of 0.08 and 0.20 g/cm 3 ,

the stack, when in said package, having a selected packing density of 0.20 to 0.65 kg/dm 3 , and exerting a force along the height of said stack towards the packaging, the packaging encircling said stack so as to maintain said stack in a compressed condition with said selected packing density,

wherein,

said packing density being >0.20 and ≤0.35 kg/dm 3 and said package having a piston imprinting load at 3 mm imprint level (IM3) and a piston imprinting load at 10 mm imprint level (IM10), wherein IM10/IM3 is greater than 3; or

said packing density being >0.35 and ≤0.65 kg/dm 3 and said package having a piston imprinting load at IM3 and a piston imprinting load at IM10, wherein IM10/IM3 is greater than 4.

2. A package according to claim 1 , wherein said structured tissue material is an Advanced-Tissue-Molding-System material, a Through-Air-Dried material, a Uncreped-Through-Air-Dried material, or an NTT material.

3. A package according to claim 1 , said packing density being >0.20 and ≤0.35 kg/dm 3 and said package having a piston imprinting load at 3 mm imprint level (IM3) being less than 130 N, or said packing density being >0.35 and ≤0.65 kg/dm 3 and said package having a piston imprinting load at IM3 being less than 200 N.

4. A package according to claim 1 , said packing density being >0.20 and ≤0.35 kg/dm 3 and said package having a piston imprinting load at 6 mm imprint level (IM6) being less than 400 N, or said packing density being >0.35 and ≤0.65 kg/dm 3 and said package having a piston imprinting load at IM6 being less than 500 N.

5. A package according to claim 1 , said packing density being >0.20 and ≤0.35 kg/dm 3 and said package having a piston imprinting load at 3 mm imprint level (IM3) and a piston imprinting load at 10 mm imprint level (IM10), wherein IM10/IM3 is greater than 3.5; or

said packing density being >0.35 and ≤0.65 kg/dm 3 and said package having a piston imprinting load at IM3 and a piston imprinting load at IM10, wherein IM10/IM3 is greater than 5.

6. A package according to claim 1 , said packing density being >0.20 and ≤0.35 kg/dm 3 and said package having a piston imprinting load at 3 mm imprint level (IM3) and a piston imprinting load at 6 mm imprint level (IM6), wherein IM6/IM3 is greater than 1.5; or

said packing density being >0.35 and ≤0.65 kg/dm 3 and said package having a piston imprinting load at IM3 and a piston imprinting load at IM6, wherein IM6/IM3 is greater than 2.

7. A package according to claim 1 , wherein said stack is a stack of folded absorbent tissue paper material.

8. A package according to claim 7 , wherein said folded absorbent tissue paper material is a continuous web material.

9. A package according to claim 8 , wherein the stack comprises at least one continuous web material being Z-folded.

10. A package in accordance with claim 1 , wherein said packaging is encircling said stack at least in a direction along the height direction of said stack.

11. A package in accordance with claim 1 , wherein said packaging is of a material having a tensile strength in a direction along the height of the stack being less than 10 kN/m 2 .

12. A package in accordance with claim 1 , wherein said packaging is of a material having a tensile strength in a direction along the height of the stack being of at least 1.5 kN/m 2 .

13. A package according to claim 1 , wherein said packaging is made of a paper, non-woven or plastic material.

14. A package according to claim 1 , wherein said packaging is closed to encircle said stack by means of a seal.

15. A package according to claim 14 , wherein said seal is an adhesive seal.

16. A package according to claim 14 , wherein said seal is an ultrasonic seal or a heatseal.

17. A package according to claim 1 , wherein the selected packing density is 0.25 to 0.55 kg/dm 3 .

18. A package according to claim 1 , wherein the selected packing density is 0.30 to 0.55 kg/dm 3 .

19. A package comprising a stack of absorbent tissue paper material and a packaging, wherein, in said stack, the absorbent tissue paper material forms panels having a length, and a width perpendicular to said length, said panels being piled on top of each other to form a height extending between a first end surface and a second end surface of the stack;

the absorbent tissue paper material comprising at least a structured tissue material, wherein the absorbent tissue paper material has a density of 0.08 and 0.20 g/cm 3 ,

the stack, when in said package, having a selected packing density of 0.25 to 0.65 kg/dm 3 , and exerting a force along the height of said stack towards the packaging, the packaging encircling said stack so as to maintain said stack in a compressed condition with said selected packing density.

20. A package according to claim 19 , wherein said stack is a stack of folded absorbent tissue paper material.
