Vacuum bags van Brada Verpakkingen
Vacuum bags are bags made from pieces of foils made of different plastics. These bags can be vacuumed so that food has a longer shelf life. Vacuum bags ensure that your product has a shelf life up to 3x longer. Vacuum bags have many advantages. They form a barrier against contaminants. Vacuum bags also ensure that the nutrients are preserved. What else vacuum bags do is protect the product against different weather conditions. This ensures that the product takes up less space, is easier to send and can be presented more beautifully.
What are vacuum bags used for?
Food is packed in vacuum bags that normally do not have a long shelf life. By using a vacuum packaging you ensure that no more air can get to the product in question. This ensures that you can store the product longer. Vacuum bags are widely used within the food industry. They are not only used for foodstuffs. Also, vacuum bags are mainly used for the vacuuming of: fish, meat and other articles. Vacuum bags are used for many things.
How do you use the vacuum bags?
The first thing to do is to choose a vacuum bag that in your opinion and according to the description best suits your product. Think of your presentation and what the bag is used for. Sharper objects often require a higher thickness. It is recommended to use around 120/140my. For example, tube bags are often used for spare ribs, since this is a stronger bag. If it is important that your product has a nice presentation. Then shrink bags are always a good option. As soon as you have chosen the right vacuum bag, your product can be placed in the bag. The next step is to place the vacuum bag with the desired product in the vacuuming machine. Make sure that you place the bag in the vacuuming machine correctly. As soon as you are sure that everything is in order, switch on the vacuuming machine and wait until your product has been vacuumed.
What materials do our vacuum bags consist of?
The vacuum bags are made of the material PA/PE (polyamide/polyethylene). Good vacuum bags consist of 80% PE and 20% PA. Our vacuum bags therefore consist of 80% PE and 20% PA.
The PE provides the strength of the bag. Furthermore, the PE ensures that the bag is not easy to puncture!
The PA ensures the shelf life of the vacuum bags! Furthermore, the PA ensures that the bag retains its color.
The thickness of the vacuum bags is determined by the my measurement. For example, 140my is thicker than 90my and can therefore better against sharp objects such as protruding bones. So take a good look at what thickness you would need for your product.

This makes a tube bag an ideal product to use in shops for the catering industry. Finally, we also supply vacuum shrink bags.
