The invention relates to a sanitary article, with an absorption body (10) and with leg openings, wherein elongate elasticating means (12) curved in an arc shape are fixed on both sides outside the absorption body (10) in the product transverse direction (16), resulting in elastication of the leg openings (18), wherein a planar material portion (6) facing towards the body comprises a nonwoven (8), characterized in that the nonwoven (8), in the area of the elasticating means (12) on both sides, and for fixing the latter, has, on its side (22) facing away from the body, a first adhesive coating (24) applied in a strip shape over the whole surface and extending in the product longitudinal direction (14), and in that the nonwoven (8), in the area of the elasticating means (12) on both sides, and for fixing the latter, has, on its side (22) facing away from the body on both sides in the product transverse direction (16) outside the first adhesive coating (24), a second adhesive coating (26) applied in a strip shape over the whole surface and extending in the product longitudinal direction (14), and in that the second adhesive coating (26) is shorter, to the front in the product longitudinal direction (14) and to the rear in the product longitudinal direction (14), than the first adhesive coating (24), i.e. ends before the latter, and in that the elongate elasticating means (12) are fixed by the first and second adhesive coatings (24, 26) between the nonwoven (8) and the planar material portion (4).
