Vacuum Packing Fresh Meat and Poultry

AMAC Vacuum Packaging Machines are the right choice for packing your raw meats and poultry. Vacuum packing extends the shelf life of your products up to 2 – 3 times longer than conventional packaging options.

Vacuum packing extracts oxygen from the vacuum bag, and with the secure heat seal, your products are protected under vacuum and prevent freezer burn and bacteria growth. For red meat, this is a favorite packing as it helps maintain the red color.

Vacuum Packing Vegetables and Fruit

Vacuum packing vegetables is an excellent choice to preserve the quality. However, the vegetables should be blanched, vacuum packed, and then frozen. Vacuum packaging product this way will keep the flavor, color, and freshness. Vacuum packing fresh vegetables (without prior freezing or blanching) may allow the product to continue to ferment as it is still alive and will result in inferior quality.

Vacuum Packing Fish

Vacuum packing fish is highly effective in preserving the freshness because oxygen is extracted from the package and helps to prolong the process of oils in the fish to break down. The fish maintains the fresh color and firmness for a long time.

Tests have proven that lean fish like halibut kept for two days on ice will last up to 12 months in a freezer before any loss in quality. The same fish kept on ice for seven days can only be stored for 2 months in a freezer before a loss of quality. Oily fish such as salmon can be stored, under identical conditions, for a third of the time compared to leaner fish. Thus, it is very important that the fish is packed quickly while it is fresh.

Vacuum Packing Liquids (Sauces and Soups)

Vacuum packing sauces and soups in vacuum-bagged portion packaging allow just the right amount of products to be reheated and used. You can make a large quantity of the product and then portion pack in vacuum bags. Chefs will enjoy consistent quality and taste of the product each time the product is used for the right amount.

Vacuum packed sauces and soups can be reheated very easily in a water bath without reducing the moisture level of the product. As your product is vacuum packed in portions, you can reheat or cook several different items in the same water bath – saving space and time.
When vacuum packing liquids of any sort, it is advisable to use an inclined insert plate, one of the useful options offered by AMAC.
