As the flight progressed; I was made aware that two particular passengers; seated XX5 and XX6; were repeatedly not in compliance with the mask policy.  I made the announcement encouraging everyone to wear their masks.  Subsequently; the passengers XX5 and XX6; failed to comply and attempted to use 'Active eating and drinking' as an excuse not to wear the mask.  The purser advised me that they were non-compliant for most of the X+ hour flight; so I forwarded their names and seat numbers to Dispatch to support the flight attendants and to document the passengers' non-compliance so that company can evaluate whether they be allowed future travel.  The customers were met by Customer Service representatives upon arrival in ZZZ.
Air carrier Captain reported two passengers were not complaint with face mask policy during flight.
