Process for manufacturing absorbent sanitary paper products

A method of manufacturing an absorbent sanitary paper product having a machine direction, a cross-machine direction orthogonal and co-planar thereto, and a Z-direction orthogonal to both the machine- and cross-machine directions, said method comprising the steps of:

• providing a first network of fibers, each fiber of said first network of fibers having a longitudinal axis generally disposed within the plane comprising the machine- and cross-machine-directions;
• applying a first bonding layer to said first side of said first network of fibers;
• applying a first second network of fibers to said first bonding layer, each fiber of said first second network of fibers having a longitudinal axis generally disposed within the plane comprising the Z-direction and comprising a combination of a first plurality of fibers and a second plurality of fibers, said first and second pluralities of fibers being different;
• and,
• applying a second bonding layer to said first side of first second network of fibers and applying a second second network of fibers to said second bonding layer each fiber of said second second network of fibers having a longitudinal axis generally disposed within the plane comprising the Z-direction.
