<p>A method to make packages of objects for celebrations or parties, such as paper cups, plates, cutlery, and napkins with graphical of figurative elements, i.e., identifying indicia, different from one another, an apparatus that carries out this method, and a package resulting therefrom. The method comprises the steps of: printing or applying on each object (10a) a first plurality of a first graphical or figurative element (11a); repeating the printing or applying step for further pluralities of equal objects (10b, 10c) with a second graphical or figurative element (11b) for a second plurality (10b), with a third graphical or figurative element (11c) for a third plurality (10c), etc.; creating stacked groups of objects picked up one at a time from each plurality of equal object, whereby each unit comprises only one of said objects of each plurality (10a or 10b or 10c); and packaging the stacked groups (30). The step of stacking the different pluralities of objects with different identifying indica can be carried out in different feeding means (20a, 20b, 20c), and it is possible that groups of objects (30) are picked up one at a time at the passage under the feeding means.</p> |
