Abstract:
A hybrid multi-ply tissue paper product comprising at least three plies made of tissue paper base-sheet is described. At least one ply is a structured ply produced by a structuring manufacturing method. The structured ply includes a structured back face. At least another ply is a wet pressed ply produced by a wet press manufacturing method. The structured ply is positioned and orientated with respect to the at least two other plies such that the structured back face of the structured ply is facing the at least two other plies so as to dampen a two-sidedness effect related to the structured back face.
Abstract:
An inkjet printing apparatus for printing an image on an absorbent substrate includes a print head unit and a dust removal device. The absorbent substrate includes a print side and an opposite side and is conveyed between the print-head unit and the dust removal device. The print head unit defines a print zone on the print side. The dust removal device includes a pumping chamber formed of a pre-pumping sub-chamber, a print zone sub-chamber, and a post-pumping sub-chamber, said chambers being positioned at the opposite side. The pre-pumping sub-chamber is positioned substantially upstream from the print zone. The print zone sub-chamber is positioned substantially at the print zone. The post-pumping sub-chamber is positioned downstream from the print zone. A second pressure in the print zone sub-chamber is higher than a first pressure in the pre-pumping sub-chamber and a third pressure in the post-pumping sub-chamber so as to create a suction impact to dust particles generated by the conveyed absorbent substrate.
Abstract:
A sheet of absorbent material having opposite sheet side edges spaced apart from one another to define an overall width of the absorbent sheet, the sheet of absorbent material including zones of weakness spaced along the sheet of absorbent material according to a machine direction, each zone of weakness extending substantially transversally to said machine direction, each zone of weakness defining two adjacent individual absorbent sheet portions, each zone of weakness being a tear line. The tear line comprises two edge regions and a central region, a first edge region beginning at one of the sheet side edges towards the central region, a second edge region beginning at the other sheet side edges towards the central region, the central region including alternating perforated segments and unperforated segments. The edge regions are unperforated so as to constitute attachment areas within the tear line between two adjacent individual absorbent sheet portions.

Abstract:
The invention relates to the use of a cleansing and/or care composition for impregnating a pile of absorbent supports.The care and cleansing composition has a relatively high apparent viscosity while having a rheological behavior of the shear-thinning and thixotropic type and comprises at least one care and/or cleansing compound.Thus, during an impregnation under stress, especially under pressure and with prior stirring, the composition becomes sufficiently fluid to enable it to rapidly and homogeneously diffuse into the supports arranged in a pile.
Abstract:
A dispenser assembly designed to tangentially dispense a sheet from a roll of sheet material including sheet material formed from two webs, each web having lines of weakness positioned transversely across the web which allows the web to be separated into a plurality of sheets, the lines of weakness of one web being offset from those of the other web. The dispenser assembly includes (1) a base arranged to hold the roll of sheet material and to couple the dispenser assembly with an environment structure; (2) a first roller and a counter roller between which the sheet material is movable towards a dispensing outlet; and (3) a cradle arranged to support the roll of sheet material and to unwind the sheet material towards the first roller whatever a consumption level of the roll of sheet material. The first roller and the counter roller are positioned relatively to each other spaced according to a fixed nip therebetween to generate a braking force on the sheet material sufficient to break the line of weakness of the web at the dispensing outlet or downstream the dispensing outlet.

Abstract:
A coreless roll of absorbent sheet products is made of a spirally wound web of absorbent substrate including at least two superposed plies of absorbent substrate, the web of absorbent substrate being wound such as to define an axial hollow passageway centrally positioned relatively to the coreless roll and extending from one edge to another edge of the coreless roll. The web of absorbent substrate further includes a stiffening insert, the stiffening insert being inserted in-between two superposed plies of absorbent substrate, the stiffening insert being positioned such as to line the axial hollow passageway, the stiffening insert having a length such that the stiffening insert extends at least around three quarter of a circumference of the passageway, preferably substantially completely around a circumference of the passageway.
Abstract:
A roll of wiping paper is obtained by winding a sheet of multi-ply absorbent paper around a core. The sheet includes at least a first and a second ply of absorbent paper, each with a grammage of between 15 and 30 g/m2 and at least one of the plies incorporating a wet strength additive. The thickness of the sheet Ep being between 0.02 and 0.07 cm, the diameter of the core being less than 3.5 cm, the diameter of the roll being between 4.5 cm and 11 cm for a volume V of absorbent paper per unit length of the roll, and the absorbency A of the sheet in cm3 of water per gram of paper being greater than 6 cm3/g. The ratio E=A/(Ep*V) of the roll is greater than or equal to 3.2.
