A known apparatus for applying diagonal labels to the necks of bottles, and comprising a rotating support carrying a rotating element for picking up a label from a supply, and first means for folding over the leading horizontally projecting point of the label so as to reenforce it and eliminate tearing during pickup by a gripper element which will ultimately pass it along to the bottle, is modified as follows: a second folding means is provided, partially concentrically arranged on the rotating support, to bend down and then fold a full 180 DEG C the top label point so it will produce a neat wrap around the container. The first folding means can also be concentrically arranged on the rotating support. |
