A highly stretched tubular sleeve (14) of resilient elastic plastic material is positioned about an array of two or more bottles (12) so that the upper extremity of the tube extends in a stretched condition over the shoulder (18) of the bottles as well as substantially covering the cylindrical body portion (16) of the bottles and exerts a resilient compressive force on all areas of contact between the sleeve and bottles to effectively unitise the package. When used to package plastic bottles the stretched sleeve causes the areas of contact between the bottles to be deformed to provide generally planar surface areas. A sleeve may also be used for labelling single bottles. <IMAGE> |
