Description
Applications
100cc Oxygen Absorber can be used for a wide range of snack and food products. Examples include:
- Seeds, nuts and dried fruits
- Beef jerky and dried foods
- Pet foods
- Breads, cakes, cookies and other bakery goods
- Herbs, tea and tobacco
- Coffee
Our oxygen absorber range is food grade.
Note: Oxygen Absorbers do not create a vacuum. Oxygen Absorbers trap oxygen from the surrounding air. Air comprises 20% oxygen and 80% nitrogen. As a result, the use of oxygen absorbers will not create the appearance of a vacuum seal. This is a different process.
Units Required
Main ingredients (iron based)
Iron powder, active carbon powder, salt, diatomite granule and water.
Oil proof packaging material: PET/EVA/PAPER/PE
Usage
The oxygen absorbers should be used as soon as possible once opened the package and cannot be exposed in the air for more than 60 minutes. Otherwise the sachets will lose the absorbing capacity before usage.

Usage Instructions:
| Oxygen Absorption Required for the Long Term Food Storage of Common Foods | |||
| To ensure adequate oxygen absorption for the long term preservation of food we recommend Mylar Bags should be filled completely & food packed tightly. There is no risk when using more oxygen absorbers than necessary. If you are unsure of the quantity of oxygen absorbers needed, always opt for the higher quantity. Note: Some foodstuffs such as flour and powdered mixes, consist of very fine particles, that contain a surprising amount of air. Be aware that 300cc oxygen absorption quantity per 3.8 litres isn’t enough for food types like pasta. | |||

Great product. Fast shipping
I have bought from pro-ex previously… but this time 2 out of the 6 packages do not have the whole “pink eye” to show their freshness. Disappointing.
Hi Pam,
If some of the eye is white that is ok and is still fresh. Ive attached more information from our website on an email to you. Hope it is helpful!
Kind regards,
