An apparatus (1) for the production of sets of containers (10), wherein the apparatus has a packaging device (2) which wraps a plurality of containers (20) at least in part with a film-like packaging material (12) and thus forms a set of containers (10), with a shrinking device (4) which shrinks the packaging material (12) which wraps the containers (20) at least in part, with a conveying device (6) which conveys the containers (20)-wrapped by the packaging material (12)-in a pre-set conveying direction, and with an inspection device (8) which inspects the containers (20)-wrapped at least in part by the packaging material (12)-after the shrinking procedure.
