A method and apparatus is provided for forming a skin package particularly for food products, hardware and the like in which a single film web is arranged around the product and by pressure differential is formed around the product. A pair of U-shaped chamber members is disposed to slidably engage the open ends of each other to form a sealed chamber with the film retained against or nearly against three sides of the chamber. After the film has been brought to a heated heat-sealable condition, atmosphere or low pressure air is used to push the film tightly around the product and into sealing condition with facing portions of the same film.
