A labeling apparatus for applying wrap labels includes a first conveyor section and a second conveyor section aligned with the first conveyor section thereby defining a conveying surface along which a package is conveyed in a conveying direction. The first conveyor section is spaced from the second conveyor section in the conveying direction thereby defining a gap between the first conveyor section and the second conveyor section. A label conveyor is located at least partially below the conveying surface having a vertical orientation to deliver a wrap label upwardly through the gap between the first and second conveyor sections. A wiper assembly is located above and spaced vertically from the conveyor surface to define a space between the wiper assembly and the conveying surface. The wiper assembly is arranged to receive a leading edge of the wrap label when it is delivered from the label conveyor and to position the leading edge of the wrap label such that the wrap label spans the space between the wiper assembly and the conveying surface for delivery of an adhesive surface of the wrap label over an edge of the package as the package passes through the space.
