Oxygen absorbers or Oxygen scavengers protect food’s quality and shelf life by eliminating oxygen from the packaging. These small oxygen-absorbing packets help actively maintain the freshness of food for an extended period.
Preserving Food Quality and Shelf Life
The presence of oxygen can cause various problems for sensitive goods. Oxygen can promote the growth of aerobic microorganisms, cause oxidation reactions that degrade the quality of the product, and accelerate the spoilage of perishable items. Oxygen scavenger sachets help mitigate these issues by reducing or eliminating the amount of oxygen in the packaging.
Using a natural chemical reaction, O Sorb effectively absorbs oxygen from the surrounding air, preventing the growth of bacteria, mould and other microorganisms that can spoil food. In addition, removing oxygen helps prevent discolouration, loss of flavour, and other quality issues that occur when food is exposed.
Additionally, oxygen absorbers provide an additional advantage by safeguarding the nutritional integrity of the food. Oxygen plays a role in degrading specific nutrients, including essential vitamins and minerals. By eliminating oxygen from the packaging, oxygen absorbers actively assist in preserving the food’s nutritional value.
Extended Shelf Life and Reduce Food Waste
Oxygen scavenger sachets are commonly used in packaging a wide range of products, including food items like snacks, dried fruits, and jerky, as well as pharmaceuticals, vitamins, and sensitive electronic components. Stream Peak manufactures O Sorb oxygen packets using Japanese technology and food-grade materials, ensuring the absence of food contamination.
They can be safely disposed of with regular household waste. Our range includes various materials, lengths, and sizes, providing a diverse selection to meet specific needs. We also offer customisation options and customised printing to ensure a tailored packaging solution that aligns with the brand and requirements.
