Abstract

See full text

Disclosed are tissue products, particularly creped, wet-pressed tissue products, having improved physical properties such as a high caliper and a low degree of stiffness. The products are manufactured by molding the nascent tissue web to the structuring belt such that the pattern disposed on the fabric is imparted to the web and can be seen by the consumer in the finished product. Preferably the molding step occurs immediately prior to creping such that the molded, nascent, web is transferred from the structuring belt to a cylindrical dryer and then subsequently removed by creping. The structuring belt imparts the tissue web with a plurality of discrete molded elements arranged to form continuous, substantially machine direction (MD) oriented, line elements that not only provide the products with an aesthetically pleasing appearance but also improves certain physical properties of the finished product.
