An absorbent product comprising a liquid-permeable casing layer (402), a liquid-barrier layer (413) and an absorption element (416) which is enclosed between the liquid-permeable casing layer (402) and the liquid-barrier layer (413), and a liquid-transfer layer (403) which is disposed between the liquid-permeable casing layer (402) and the absorption element (406). The envelope layer (402) is bonded in a pattern of distinct thermally produced bonds (405) to the liquid-transfer layer (403). The liquid-transfer layer (403) comprises 40-65% by weight network-creating function fibres which are substantially intact following the bonding-together of the envelope layer (402) and the liquid-transfer layer (403) and which have a fibre coarseness ranging from 6 denier to 12 denier and 35-60% by weight fibres comprising a weldable, thermoplastic component and having a fibre coarseness of at least 3 denier.
