Vacuum packing is cheaper than spoiled food
Vacuum packing prolongs the shelf life of food up to 4 times. Storing food in a controlled environment with reduced oxidation can save you a lot of money. See more below.
Vacuum prolongs the shelf life of food and saves you up to 325 € per year
That is correct. An average European throws away approximately 82 kilograms of food per year. Research shows that amounts to 325 € per year. Amongst the most common reasons for throwing away food are also:
- poor meal planning,
- too much prepared food and
- too much food bought at once.
And the solution? Prolong the shelf life of food in an entirely natural way – use vacuum
Vacuum storage prolongs the freshness of food in an entirely natural way without using any additives that affect the taste or the aroma. By pumping the air out of vacuum bags and containers, you remove the oxygen which would activate unwanted reactions that would result in rancid taste, mould and bacteria growth, loss of flavour, vitamins and aromas. By storing foods in vacuum you slow down the oxidation process and prolong the shelf life of foods and also retain their nutrition.
How to choose the right way of vacuum storage?
We usually adapt the food storage to:
- the type of food and
- the duration of storing.
Use food vacuum bags and vacuum sealer for packing firm and dry foods (dried meat products, carrots, nuts) you want to store for a longer period of time. Cured sausages, bacon and prosciutto can be stored in a cold basement or refrigerator because vacuum prevents them from maturing and drying. Vacuum-packed vegetables need to be frozen for winter supplies. Vacuum packing in vacuum bags is also useful for some everyday foods (cheese, bread) you store in the refrigerator.
Use Status’s vacuum containers for short-term food storage of pre-prepared lettuce, vegetables and fruits for everyday use and also for vacuum packing liquids like soups and sauces. Pick the appropriate shape and volume of the container according to the food item and remove the air with a manual or electric vacuum pump or using a special attachment on the vacuum sealer. Storing foods in a vacuum container is a great solution for food prepping and saving leftovers. Meals can be frozen and microwaved in the same container (up to two minutes without the lid).
Tastier food and colourful meals
It is clear that the investment in a vacuum sealer and vacuum bags returns itself in one year.
Besides that;
- Food is tastier and meals are more colourful because food is fresher longer.
- Food can be prepared in advance because ingredients stored in vacuum won’t lose much of their quality and nutrition.
- Leftovers can be stored for three or even four days and even frozen.
