Oxygen absorber for food packaging/deoxidizer/oxygen scavenger

Oxygen absorbers have revolutionized the way that dehydrated food is stored long-term. The presence of oxygen decreases the storage life of food and causes oxidative deterioration.

Feature:

Oxygen absorbers have revolutionized the way that dehydrated food is stored long-term. The presence of oxygen decreases the storage life of food and causes oxidative deterioration. Oxygen absorbers are small packets that contain an iron powder. The packets are made of a material that allows oxygen and moisture to enter but does not allow the iron powder to leak out. The Oxygen Absorbers are safe to place on top of the food. They will not harm the food they are in contact with as they come in a food-safe pouch

We offer a line of oxygen-absorbers designed to remove unwanted oxygen inside a packaged environment. Oxygen absorbers are safe and easy to use with food products such as dried meats, baked goods, dried spices, bulk foods and other foodstuffs. Our Dry Pak oxygen absorbers are available in sizes ranging from 30cc to 3000cc in individual packets. Each case is into a number of sealed bags with a quantity of packets that varies by size .

There are several different formulations depending on whether food is frozen, refrigerated or destined for long-term storage.

The most critical component for evaluation is the water activity level (AW). All dry grain, legumes, milk powder, pasta products and other dehydrated foods have very low water activity levels. Thus, they require absorbers which have rapid activation. These work within minutes of the package being opened .
