Abstract

A film bearing continuously printed labels to be subjected to heat-shrinking and designed to be processed by a labelling machine which comprises a rotating carousel for supporting the individual containers to be labelled and which is provided with elements that convey the film, drawing it from a reel, to be cut so as to separate the individual labels and bring each one into contact with a dummy bottle, so that each one of the labels completely surrounds one of the dummy bottles, forming a sleeve, transfer elements being also provided which are adapted to transfer the sleeve, which is now closed, to the underlying container, the film being a flat film which is pretreated with adhesive at a strip at an end flap of each individual label that corresponds to an overlap region so as to form the closed sleeve in contact with the corresponding dummy bottle.
