PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To sufficiently sterilize a container, prevent a blow molding unit from being damaged by a sterilant, enable miniaturization of equipment, require only a small number of areas kept in a sterilized environment, and reduce costs.SOLUTION: A molding and sterilization line for a container for being subjected to blow molding has a molding area 101 for performing the blow molding, and a transfer area 103 between the molding area 101 and a filling area for filling the container with contents. A jet of sterilant is emitted to an inner surface of the container in predetermined timing between the molding area 101 and the transfer area.
