Our vacuum machines for preserving all foods:
Vacuum sealers are used to preserve food because they help extend its shelf life and protect it from oxidation and bacteria. This can be particularly useful for foods that are prone to rapid spoilage, such as fresh meat and fish, as well as raw fruits and vegetables.
Here is the list of foods that can be vacuum-packed:
- Meat (beef, pork, lamb, veal, game, etc.)
- Fish and seafood
- Chicken and turkey
- Vegetables (carrots, beans, spinach, cabbage, broccoli, etc.)
- Fruits (bananas, apples, oranges, strawberries, melons, etc.)
- Grains (rice, quinoa, pasta)
- Nuts (cashews, cashew nuts, pecans, almonds)
- Dairy products (butter, cheese, milk)
The purpose of a vacuum machine:
When you look at these products, the first thing you might ask yourself is, "Do I really need this? What are they actually used for?"
There's no doubt that vacuum packaging is the best solution for extending the shelf life of your food. This method allows you to preserve food for 5 to 10 times longer than usual.
It involves protecting food from humidity, cold, frost, or even dryness by storing it in a container or packaging that has been emptied of all air and placed under pressure. Indeed, air poses a major threat to the proper preservation of food, as it accelerates the deterioration and destructuring of food molecules. Buying food products in bulk and repackaging them can also be an effective way to save money.
Additionally, preserving seasonal foods beyond their growing season, such as perfectly ripe berries from the farmers' market in summer to use in pies during the winter holidays, gives you fun and creative off-season fruit options.
Vacuum sealers are also a great option for hunters and fishermen. They allow you to preserve large quantities of meat and store it in more manageable portions that are more useful for cooking and eating months later.
How a food vacuum machine works:
Vacuum sealers are recognized by cooking, gastronomy, and food enthusiasts for their ability to preserve the color, flavor, consistency, and nutrient content of all foods. They are also renowned for their ease of use on a daily basis.
Here's how they work:
After placing your food inside a vacuum bag, simply position the end of the same packaging bag between the sealing bar and the rubber seal of your machine. Next comes the process of vacuuming the air, which removes all the oxygen present inside the bag. Then the bag is sealed to keep it under pressure and make it completely airtight.
This mechanism not only kills bacteria that need oxygen to survive, but also protects pantry food from spoilage and combats moisture loss that leads to freezer burn. Some of these machines are capable of vacuum sealing jars and solid glass containers such as jars or bottles. They are ideal for preserving all liquids, juices, sauces, and more.
Equip yourself with the right vacuum machine:
At Scelleuse Pro, we've strived to create a range of vacuum sealers that are easy and enjoyable to use. However, not all of them will be suitable for your needs. That's why it's essential to pay attention to their power, size, seal length, and optional extras, if any. A vacuum sealer's motor power is expressed in watts, the pressure exerted on the bags is indicated in bar, and the vacuum pump's suction force is indicated in L/min. The higher these values, the more efficient the machine in question will be.
If you want to vacuum pack food for your business (restaurant, hotel, shop, bar, butcher, etc.), we recommend you choose more efficient models than those presented on this page. We have specially grouped machines adapted to your needs in our range of professional vacuum machines . These will allow you to vacuum pack a larger quantity of food in all the containers of your choice, and at an industrial rate.
