A method and an apparatus for producing a filler-containing substrate, as well as a substrate produced using the method, are disclosed. The substrate comprises a filler layer (201, 52, 801) and a seal layer (203, 51, 802). The method comprises: (a) forming holes in the filler layer (201, 52, 801); (b) spreading fillers on a porous surface of the filler layer (201, 52, 801) that has undergone hole formation; (c) horizontally shaking the filler layer (201, 52, 801) having the fillers spread thereon so as to allow the fillers to enter the holes; and (d) sealing the filler layer (201, 52, 801) having the holes containing the fillers so as to obtain the substrate. The apparatus comprises: a hole-forming device (21, 71) for forming the holes in the filler layer (201, 52, 801); a spreading device (23, 72) for spreading the fillers on the surface formed with the holes of the filler layer (201, 52, 801) that has undergone hole formation; a horizontal shaking device (24, 73) for horizontally shaking the filler layer (201, 52, 801) having the fillers spread thereon so as to allow the fillers to enter the holes; and a sealing device (25, 74, 312) for sealing the filler layer (201, 52, 801) having the holes containing the fillers.
