An absorptive body (50) for attachment to the human body, especially for absorbing fluids coming out of parts of the human body such as wounds, has a substantially flat material section made of an absorbing material (1), which consists of an absorbing non-woven having super-absorber particles spread therein, and a fluid-permeable shell (2) that surrounds the material section, forms a barrier against solid excretions and enables the passage of other excreted substances into the material section made of absorbing material (1) that is arranged inside the shell (2). The shell is made of a small-pored material, whose pores are smaller than the unwetted super-absorber particles.
