Description
300cc Oxygen Absorber help extend shelf life and prevent spoilage with oxygen absorbers, designed to remove oxygen inside sealed packaging. Used in food preservation, pharmaceuticals, and dry goods storage, Oxygen scavengers prevent mould, oxidation, and microbial growth. Within 24 hours, oxygen absorbers create an oxygen-free environment, helping to retain taste, texture, and quality in packaged goods. Ideal for vacuum-sealed foods, pet food, coffee, and baked goods, they keep products fresh for extended periods. Unlike desiccants, which remove moisture, oxygen absorbers specifically target oxygen-related degradation, making them essential to extend the shelf life of products. All of our Oxygen products are Food Grade.
Where would I typically use oxygen absorbers?
Oxygen absorbers are used in many products, including but not limited to:
- Pasta and noodles
- Rice, Flour, grain, pasta, seeds & nuts
- Dried fruits & vegetables
- Spices, seasonings & herbs
- Coffee, tea, cocoa & confectionary
- Processed, smoked & cured meats
- Bakery goods such as flatbreads, cakes, pastries
- Candies and confectioneries
- Pharmaceuticals, vitamins & herbal medicines
- Diagnostic kits & devices
- Pet foods & Birdseed
- Stationery and artwork preservation
Calculate what size of Oxygen absorber you need.
The factors to consider when calculating how many oxygen absorbers you require are:
- The volume of the sealed package
- The volume occupied by the food product.
The oxygen absorber calculation isolates the volume of the food packaging void – sealed package volume less food weight – multiplied by 20%. The factor of 20% reflects that our atmosphere comprises 20% oxygen and 80% nitrogen.
For those who like the numbers, the formula is:
And for those who prefer a shortcut (who doesn’t), check out our online Oxygen Absorber Calculator to find out how many you will need at the click of a button.
Here is a step-by-step guide on how to use the Oxygen absorber sachets
Step 1: Open the Packet Carefully
Cut open the Oxygen Absorber packet, ensuring you do not cut the individual sachets.
Step 2: Remove and Separate the Oxygen Absorbers
Take out only the number of Oxygen Absorbers you need. Lay them out separately, ensuring they do not touch each other. If they remain in contact for too long, they may activate and become warm or hot.
Step 3: Prepare Your Packaging
Get your bags or containers ready before inserting the Oxygen Absorbers to minimize their exposure to air.
Step 4: Place the Oxygen Absorbers Correctly
Put the Oxygen Absorbers into your packaging, ensuring they are spaced out to prevent premature activation.
- Selecting the correct cc size is crucial for effectiveness.
- Use our Oxygen Absorber Calculator or contact us for guidance.
- You have up to 30 minutes before the absorbers become less effective.
Step 5: Seal Your Package
Once the Oxygen Absorbers are in place, seal your bag or container immediately to prevent unnecessary oxygen exposure.
Step 6: Reseal Any Unused Absorbers
If you have leftover Oxygen Absorbers, reseal them as quickly as possible to maintain their effectiveness. We recommend:
- Using a vacuum sealer for the best results.
- Removing as much air as possible and sealing with a hair straightener or airtight tape.
We recommend resealing your remaining Oxygen Absorbers with a vacuum sealer.
Another option is to take as much air out of the packet as possible and seal with a hair straightener or just packaging the packet tightly with tape.
