The apparatus (10) comprises counter-rotating strings of container forming assemblies (15, 16) passed through a container forming station (14). The assemblies include moulds (21, 24) by which to form the containers in a sheet (11) which is fed thereto. Container formation can be by blowing the sheet into a mould (21). The sheet might be preformed by motion of a plug (24) prior to blowing. The moulding elements are operatively mounted successively to pivotally joined support means (81, 85). The separate strings of respective container forming elements are each powered for movement in a closed loop past the container forming station (14), travelling in concert so that the sheet (11) is deformed to form a container (26) therein before exiting.
