Problem: due to the external force applied to the absorber, the wrap material wrapped in the absorbent body is broken, and the pulp fiber or sap constituting the absorbent body jumps out, and its shape is broken, and the performance as an absorber is impaired.The absorbent body 13 having the absorbent body 25 forming the sheet shape and the wrap member 26 for covering the absorbent body 25 has a portion 27, 28 overlapping the lap member 26. Further, overlapping portions 27 and 28 of the lap member 26 are located on one surface side of the absorbent body 25, and a concave portion 30 is integrally formed in one of the surfaces of the absorbent body 25 and overlapping portions of the wrap member 26.Diagram【課題】吸収体に加わる外力により、吸収性本体を包むラップ材が破れ、吸収性本体を構成するパルプ繊維やSAPが飛び出してその形状が崩れてしまい、吸収体としての性能が損なわれる。【解決手段】シート状をなす吸収性本体25と、この吸収性本体25を包むラップ材26とを具えた本発明による吸収体13は、ラップ材26が相互に重なり合う部分27,28を有する。また、ラップ材26の相互に重なり合う部分27,28は、吸収性本体25の一方の表面側に位置し、この吸収性本体25の一方の表面およびラップ材26の相互に重なり合う部分27,28には凹部30が一体的に形成されている。【選択図】図4
