THE ECONOMY OF VACUUM
SEALING
Keep Foods Fresher, Longer
Oxygen in the air causes food to lose its flavor,
texture, color and nutrients. When you vacuum
seal with the FRESHLOCK Turbo II, you remove
air from the storage bag and prevent spoilage due
to oxidation. This also inhibits the growth of
microorganisms, such as bacteria, on food. The
result is less food thrown away and less money
wasted.
In general, vacuum sealing keeps refrigerated
foods fresh approximately twice as long as food
not packaged by vacuum sealing. Dry foods, such
as flour, sugar, nuts, pasta, cereal, snacks and
dehydrated fruits will have a much longer shelf-life
when vacuum sealed.

Eliminate Freezer Burn
"Freezer Burn" is a combination of oxidation
and dehydration of frozen food that results in the
loss of texture, flavor and nutrition. This is
common with frozen foods improperly packaged
for the length of time stored. Vacuum sealing
eliminates oxidation and, therefore, practically
eliminates freezer burn.
FRESHLOCK Turbo II can be used to pack
meats, fish, poultry, vegetables, baked goods and
other items for freezing.
Save on Grocery Bills
Since vacuum sealing keeps food fresher and
longer, you can buy in bulk volume or stock up on
sale items and vacuum pack for extended stor-
age.
