A method for manufacturing an absorbent product comprising the steps of: advancing a continuous substrate through a converting line; combining the substrate with a topsheet and an absorbent core, wherein the absorbent core is disposed between the topsheet and the substrate; cutting the substrate to form a backsheet having a first lateral end edge, a second lateral end edge, a first longitudinal side edge, and a second longitudinal side edge; folding the backsheet along a lateral axis; connecting the first lateral end edge with the second lateral end edge, a first portion of the first longitudinal side edge with a second portion of the first longitudinal side edge, and a first portion of the second longitudinal side edge with a second portion of the second longitudinal side edge; and creating a first longitudinal line of weakness laterally inboard of the first longitudinal end edge, a second longitudinal line of weakness laterally inboard of the second longitudinal end edge, a first lateral line of weakness longitudinally inboard of the first lateral end edge, and a second lateral line of weakness longitudinally inboard of the second lateral end edge, wherein the lines of weakness define an outer perimeter of an absorbent article comprising the absorbent core disposed between the backsheet and the topsheet, and wherein a removable trim region is defined by an area of the backsheet between the outer perimeter of the absorbent article and the first and second longitudinal side edges and the first and second lateral end edges.
