Vacuum Packaging and Food Safety
The vacuum packaging process extends the life of
foods by removing the air from the sealed contai-
ner, thereby reducing oxidation, that affects the
nutritional value, flavour and overall quality.
It also helps inhibit the growth of aerobic microor-
ganisms, which can lead to the problems noted
below under certain conditions:
Mould – Mould cannot grow in a low oxygen
environment; therefore vacuum packaging can
virtually eliminate it.
Yeast – Results in fermentation, which can be
identified by smell and taste. Yeast needs
water, sugar and a moderate temperature to
grow. It can also survive with or without air.
Slowing the growth of yeast requires refrigera-
tion, while freezing stops it completely.

Bacteria – Results in an unpleasant odour,
discolouration and/or soft or slimy texture.
Under the right conditions, clostridium botulinum
(the organism that causes Botulism) can grow
without air and cannot be detected by smell or
taste. Although it is extremely rare, it can be very
dangerous.
Freezing at -17°C does not kill microorganisms,
but stops them from growing. For long-term sto-
rage, always freeze perishable foods that have
been vacuum packaged, and keep them refrige-
rated after defrosting.
It is difficult to predict how long foods will retain
their top-quality flavor, appearance or texture be-
cause it depends on the age and condition of the
food on the day it was vacuumed packaged.
Note: vacuum packaging is not a substitute for
refrigeration or freezing. Any perishable foods
that require refrigeration must still be refrigerated
or frozen after vacuum packaging.
Preservation Time
Foods can be preserved 2 to 4 times longer than
in normal conditions; the preservation time is
strongly linked to the conditions the product is in
when it is packed and the amount of water it
contains.
Type of Bags
The use of high-quality ELMA vacuum bags is re-
commended for to obtain optimum vacuum and
preservation results.
