Mechanical delabeling apparatus includes a slotted tubular feed conduit containing drive belts, an open delabeling zone at the end of the conduit circumscribed by adjacent, circularly arranged members comprising an abrading wheel, an article turning wheel and a yieldably biased set of spherical rollers. The dry process includes sequentially driving labeled bottles into the delabeling zone, rotating them about their lengthwise axes prior to and during contact with the abrading wheel while yieldably transversely supporting them in such zone and air conveying labels and adhesive materials from the zone as removed from the bottles.
