Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9614761A1] The effect of spiral-wrapping of a tobacco rod is obtained by providing a wrap material (1) having edge portions (3) which are angled to an edge (4) which is to be arranged axially of the tobacco rod when the material is wrapped cylindrically around the tobacco. Discontinuities (5) between inclined edge portions (3) are preferred positions for the severing of rods wrapped with the material, into cigarette lengths. Methods and apparatus are disclosed for wrapping or overwrapping with this material to form the tobacco rod.
