PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To easily open a tug tape, ensure a sufficient adhesive length in the tug tape even when a displacement occurs or a folded back position is varied, assemble an absorbent article in the form of a longitudinal flow in a production line and fold the absorbent article in the form of the longitudinal flow.SOLUTION: In a manufacturing method of an individually packed napkin, a napkin 1 which has an absorbent member 4 provided between a liquid permeable surface sheet 3 and a back surface sheet 2 is packed by an individually packing sheet 14 and an opening side end edge 14a is stopped by the tug tape 15. The tug tape 15 has non-adhesive pinch parts 15a and 15a formed in a side edge part orthogonal to the direction of the opening side end edge 14a in an adhesive surface side to the individually packing sheet 14. In the production line, the absorbent article is assembled in the form of the longitudinal flow, folded together with the packing sheet in the form of the longitudinal flow and the opening side end edge of the packing sheet is placed in a direction orthogonal to the direction of the production line and stopped by the tug tape.
