Method for bagging plurality of compressible absorbent articles which are arranged in parallel, one beside the other. The bag has an approximately rectangular base, a front side, a rear side, two narrow sides, and an upper side and is closed on all sides. The bag also has a line of weakness which marks an opening for the individual removal of the articles. The height of the bag is greater than the depth of the bag, the line of weakness extends, midway along the bag, from the longitudinal center of the upper side, toward the base, about half way down the front side of the bag. The base has a downwardly directed supporting band. The absorbent articles do not exerting sufficient pressure on any of the sides of the bag filled with said articles to cause the opening to gape open. The opening can be formed by bending the bag to open the line of weakness, and it closes after removal of the product when the bag is replaced on its supporting edge. Thus, the bag provides a substantial hygienic storage of absorbent products.

[ What is claimed is:] [1.] A process for producing a flexible bag and for packaging compressible, absorbent articles therein, comprising the steps of:conveying a continuous, planar web comprising a plastic film forwards in a stepwise manner in length portions which correspond approximately to the length of the bag;folding the film web upon itself in a substantially horizontal plane about a longitudinal axis, in doing so forming a longitudinal fold on one longitudinal side and two longitudinal halves, located one above the other, of the film web;pushing film portions, located adjacent to one another, of two longitudinal halves continuously inward at the longitudinal fold in order to form an inner fold, the longitudinal halves of the film web forming two outer folds with the film portions of the inner fold;producing a line of weakness proximate a longitudinal center of the upper longitudinal half of said length portions, substantially transversely to the direction of movement of the film web, which line of weakness extends from an outer border, which is parallel to the longitudinal fold and corresponds to the upper longitudinal half, toward the longitudinal fold, approximately half way to the outer fold;sealing one longitudinal half of the film web to one film portion of the inner fold in the region of the outer fold, and separately therefrom, but simultaneously, sealing the upper longitudinal half of the film web to the upper film portion of the inner fold in the region of the outer fold, said sealing being over a width which corresponds to the height of a supporting band;sealing front and, subsequently, rear ends of the length portions, corresponding to the length of a bag, of the longitudinal halves, located adjacent to one another, of the film web in order to form the narrow sides of the bag and substantially simultaneously severing the bag from the film web;directing a compressed-air jet towards outer borders of the two longitudinal halves, located opposite the base to open an introduction opening of the bag;introducing a stack of articles into the bag through the introduction opening;folding inward the outer borders enclosing the introduction opening of the film material in order to close the introduction opening partially;pressing together the outer borders corresponding to the front side and the rear side of the bag, against one another; andsealing the pressed together outer borders.
