It lets you save space in the refrigerator, while the air suction function&nbsp;additionally preserves your food. Moist products (meats, cold cuts, cheeses) don&#8217;t dry out, bread doesn&#8217;t become stale,&nbsp;delicate&nbsp;products (fruit, vegetables) are protected against damage and insects, and&nbsp;food with a short shelf life&nbsp;stay fresh longer. For popular products, the approximate shelf life&nbsp;is&nbsp;as follows:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Bread rolls (room temperature)&nbsp;\u2013&nbsp;normally&nbsp;2-3 days, up to 8 days with vacuum packing&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Yellow cheese (refrigerator) &#8211;&nbsp;normally&nbsp;approx. 20 days, with vacuum packing up to 3 months&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Poultry (refrigerator)&nbsp;\u2013&nbsp;normally&nbsp;3 days, 6-9 days with vacuum packing&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Meat (freezer) &#8211;&nbsp;normally&nbsp;around&nbsp;6 months, up to 2 years with vacuum packing&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Vacuum&nbsp;packing&nbsp;also saves energy. Refrigeration equipment works more efficiently due to the fact that unlike the case with traditional packaging, it cools only the items, not the air.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"0-all-purpose-vacuum-sealing-\">All-purpose vacuum sealing&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.expondo.ie\/food-vacuum-sealers\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.expondo.ie\/food-vacuum-sealers\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Vacuum sealers<\/a>\u00a0are\u00a0the most popular type of\u00a0device.\u00a0Due\u00a0to their compact size they take up little space.\u00a0User-friendliness and\u00a0their\u00a0affordable price make\u00a0them\u00a0ideal for both\u00a0commercial\u00a0and home use.

With more sophisticated models you can also use vacuum pouches, air suction from canisters\/bottles, sealing without air suction,&nbsp;and&nbsp;adjusting each parameter to the type of product (dry\/wet). They also let you close the bags manually, which works well with delicate items that are prone to damage.

They will therefore work&nbsp;wonders&nbsp;in butchers, food processing plants and large restaurants,&nbsp;such as&nbsp;in hotels.

It lets you save space in the refrigerator, while the air suction function&nbsp;additionally preserves your food. Moist products (meats, cold cuts, cheeses) don't dry out, bread doesn't become stale,&nbsp;delicate&nbsp;products (fruit, vegetables) are protected against damage and insects, and&nbsp;food with a short shelf life&nbsp;stay fresh longer. For popular products, the approximate shelf life&nbsp;is&nbsp;as follows:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n\n\n\n\n\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Vacuum&nbsp;packing&nbsp;also saves energy.
