Oxygen Absorbers

Description

Oxygen Absorbers are now widely recognized by industry and the military as the best way to maintain shelf life stability in food and for long periods of time.

Though our oxygen absorbers have been around for only 25 years, they are widely recognized by industry and the military as the best way to maintain the shelf life stability in food and for long periods of time.

The chart below illustrates the efficacy of the three most widely used methods of food preservation.

Packaging Method	Results	Benefits
Oxygen Absorbers	Reduces and maintains oxygen content in packaging to below 0.01%	Eliminates aerobics microbial growth and oxidative chemical reactions in packaging
Vacuum & Back Flush	Achieves as little as 0.1% residual oxygen	Controls aerobic microbial growth temporarily*
Gas Flushing	Achieves approximately 0.5% to 5% residual oxygen	Provides some control of aerobic microbial growth*

 

*Mold has been shown to grow in 20 days at 25 deg C at 0.2% residual oxygen (From “Techniques for the preservation of food by employment of an oxygen absorber,” Nakamura and Hoshino, 1983)
