The FoodSaver® System

Why Vacuum Package?

Exposure to air causes food to lose nutrition and flavour, and also

causes freezer burn and enables many bacteria, mould and yeast to

grow. The FoodSaver® vacuum packaging system removes air and

seals in flavour and quality. With a full line of FoodSaver® bags, and

canisters to expand your options, you can now enjoy the benefits of a

scientifically proven food storage method that keeps food fresh up to

five times longer.

The FoodSaver® System Saves Time and Money

• Spend less money. With the FoodSaver® system, you can buy

in bulk or buy on sale and vacuum package your food in desired

portions without wasting food.

• Save more time. Cook ahead for the week, preparing meals and

saving them in FoodSaver® bags.

• Make entertaining easy. Make your signature dish and holiday

treats in advance so you can spend quality time with your guests.

• Enjoy seasonal or specialty foods. Keep highly perishable or

infrequently used items fresh longer.

• Control portions for dieting. Vacuum package sensible portions

and write calories and/or fat grams on the bag.

• Protect non-food items. Keep camping and boating supplies

dry and organised for outings. Protect polished silver from

tarnishing by minimising exposure to air.

FoodSaver® Accessories

Get the most out of your FoodSaver® appliance with easy-to-use

FoodSaver® bags, canisters and accessories.

FoodSaver® Bags and Rolls

FoodSaver® bags and rolls feature special channels that enable

the efficient removal of air. The multi-ply construction makes them

an especially effective barrier to oxygen and moisture and helps to

prevent freezer burn. FoodSaver® bags and rolls come in a variety of

sizes.

FoodSaver® Containers

FoodSaver® containers are simple to use and ideal for vacuum

packaging delicate items such as muffins and other baked goods,

liquids and dry goods. Use to marinate in minutes rather than hours

with Marinate Mode.

FoodSaver® Bottle Stopper

Use FoodSaver® bottle stoppers to vacuum package wine,

non-carbonated liquids and oils. This will extend the life of the liquid

and preserve the flavour. Don’t use the bottle stopper on plastic

bottles.
