Abstract

A tubular container includes a tubular body open at both ends and a divider affixed within the body so as to divide the body into two tubular compartments each accessible through one of the open ends of the body. Each open end is closed by a closure. The body includes a polymer liner to which the divider is attached. The polymer liner and the divider preferably comprise heat-sealable materials and the divider is heat-sealed to the liner.
