PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain flexible deformation in response to projections/recessions in the body of a user.SOLUTION: An absorptive article 1 includes pressing grooves along a longitudinal direction L, which are constituted so as to press a portion from a front surface sheet to an absorptive body. The pressing grooves are divided into at least center pressing grooves 21 and rear pressing grooves 22-24. The center pressing grooves 21 are arranged in the longitudinal direction L so as to cross the center line a-a in an excretion part abutment area of the absorptive article 1. The rear pressing grooves 22-24 are arranged in the longitudinal direction L in the rear parts of the center line a-a in the excretion part abutment area. The rear ends 21B of the center pressing grooves 21 are arranged in the rear parts of the front ends 22F of the rear pressing grooves 22 in the longitudinal direction L, and also the rear ends 21B of the center pressing grooves 21 are arranged in the outer parts of the center ends 22F of the rear pressing grooves 22 in a width direction W.COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT
