ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE The disclosure relates to assembling thermoplastic sleeve coverings on rigid glass containers or bottles and heat-shrinking the plastic covering on the container. The plastic is fed from a web of material to a mandrel- carrying turret apparatus where it is cut into lengths and wrapped and seamed on successive mandrels,thereby forming sleeves. The bottles which arrive on a conveyor are successively moved and positioned over the sleeve- forming mandrels and the sleeves are telescopically assembled onto the blass bottles. The bottles are then rotated about their axes and moved through a semicircular heated zone to shrink the sleeves into snug engagement with the surface of the glass bottle. After assembly and shrinking is com- plete, the bottles are released to an outfeed conveyor completing the process.
