PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an absorbent article which is folded in a longer direction in individual packaging, in which fold habits or fold wrinkles are further reduced in a use time, and which can efficiently prevent leakage of a body fluid.SOLUTION: An absorbent article comprises: a top sheet a back sheet and an absorber, and is folded in a longer direction by two fold lines. The absorbent article comprises: compression grooves on areas in the vicinity of the fold lines, in which the compression grooves are configured so that, a dimension in a width direction of each compression groove is shorter than a dimension in a width direction of the absorber, a depth of each compression groove becomes gradually shallower from the vicinity of a width direction center line to both end parts of the width direction, and the compression groove is formed into a salient-state in a cross direction in plan view at least a pair of channel embossments are formed on both sides of the width direction center line on a crotch part, the channel embossments are formed into a salient-state toward the width direction center line, in which the channel embossment is formed on a front part and a rear part respectively, and the channel embossment is formed into a salient semi-arc state toward end parts of the longer direction.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1COPYRIGHT: (C)2017,JPO&INPIT【課題】個別包装に際して長手方向に折り畳まれる吸収性物品において、使用時に折り癖や折りじわがより低減されており、体液の横漏れも効果的に防止可能な吸収性物品を提供すること。【解決手段】トップシートと、バックシートと、吸収体と、を備え、2本の折り線によって長手方向に折り畳まれる吸収性物品であって、折り線近傍の領域に圧搾溝を有し;圧搾溝は、幅方向の寸法が吸収体の幅方向の寸法よりも短く、深さが幅方向中心線近傍から幅方向両端部に向かって徐々に浅くなり、平面視で前後方向に凸になった形状を有しており;股部において、幅方向中心線の両側に、少なくとも1対のチャネルエンボスが形成され、このチャネルエンボスは、幅方向中心線に向かって凸となっており、前部及び後部にチャネルエンボスがそれぞれ形成されて、このチャネルエンボスは、長手方向端部に向かって凸の略半円弧状となっている吸収性物品。【選択図】図1
