About Vacuum Packaging

Air is left in most food storage con- tainers and plastic bags even when they are sealed tightly. Oxygen is one of the main reasons that food goes bad. It starts a chemical change – robbing food of its nutri- tional value, texture, color, flavor and overall quality. The FoodSaver vacuum packaging system removes the air from FoodSaver Bags and then seals the bags so that air cannot re-enter. It is also designed to be used with a wide range of FoodSaver accessories that will keep a variety of foods fresh longer. Finally, you can maintain the same freshness at home that you get with profession- ally vacuum-packaged items you purchase at the grocery store.

FoodSaver Bags and Rolls

FoodSaver Bags and Rolls are made from a special 3-layer plastic material with patented channels that remove the air. The outer layer of nylon seals freshness in, while locking air and moisture out.

Patented 3-Layer Design

Patented FoodSaver Bags are designed to

remove air and seal in freshness.

FoodSaver Bags and Rolls can go straight from the freezer and refrigerator to the microwave or boiling water.

FoodSaver Bags and Rolls are reusable, washable (including in the dishwasher) and recyclable.

FoodSaver Bags come in ready- made pint, quart and gallon sizes to offer convenient, one-step storage.

Your Vac 1200 also works with 8 inch and 11 inch wide FoodSaver Rolls, which allow you to make custom-sized bags for the items that you are vacuum packaging.

Most FoodSaver users like to keep both bags and rolls handy for the greatest packaging convenience.
