The present invention provides apparatus for filling and sealing two-chamber containers in a container sheet, the two-chamber containers having a first chamber and a second chamber. The apparatus comprises first filling means for filling the first chamber of each two- chamber container with a first filling material; cover feeding means for feeding a cover sheet to a position overlying the two-chamber containers; first sealing means for sealing the cover sheet to the container sheet at a peripheral portion of the first chamber to thereby seal the first material in the first chamber; and displacing means for displacing a displaceable portion of the cover sheet which overlies the second chamber to a displaced position to provide access to the second chamber for filling. The apparatus further comprises second filling means for filling the second chamber with a second filling material; return means for returning the displaceable portion of the cover sheet from the displaced position to a position overlying the second chamber; and second sealing means for sealing the cover sheet to the container sheet at a peripheral portion of the second chamber to thereby seal the second material in the second chamber. Preferably, the apparatus further comprises forming means for forming two- chamber containers in a container sheet.
