Absorbent article with profiled acquisition-distribution system

An absorbent article comprising a front end, a back end and a longitudinal axis extending in a longitudinal direction of the article, the article having a length L as measured along the longitudinal axis between the front end and the back end, the absorbent article comprising:

• a liquid permeable topsheet;
• a liquid impermeable backsheet;
• an absorbent core comprising a core wrap enclosing an absorbent material, the absorbent material comprising at least about 80% of superabsorbent polymers (SAP) by weight of the absorbent material;
• and
• an acquisition-distribution system at least partially disposed between the absorbent core and the topsheet and comprising one or more layers;
• wherein the acquisition-distribution system extends in the longitudinal direction of the absorbent article at least from a point Al disposed at a distance D from the front edge to a point A2 disposed at the distance D from the back edge of the article, wherein the distance D is equal to about 32% of the length L of the article, and wherein the acquisition-distribution system has a basis weight which is lower at the point A2 than at the point A1;
• wherein the acquisition-distribution system further comprises a first zone Z1 disposed towards the front end and encompassing point A1, and a second zone Z2 disposed towards the back end and encompassing point A2;
• wherein the first zone Z1 comprises a homogenous basis weight and a surface area of at least 50 cm2 and the second zone comprises a surface area of at least 10 cm2 and a homogenous basis weight or a gradually, linearly decreasing basis weight;
• wherein the acquisition-distribution system comprises an acquisition layer and a distribution layer, and wherein the acquisition layer is disposed closer to the topsheet than the distribution layer, and
• wherein the distribution layer comprises at least about 50% by weight of cross-linked cellulose fibers.
