5. WHY USE STATUS’ BAGS AND FOIL ROLLS?
Status vacuum bags are impermeable, food safe, neu-
tral in taste and smell, reusable, BPA free and suitable
for Sous Vide cooking. The foodstuffs stored in them
will remain the same at least half a year after you have
stored it.
The quality of a bag and a foil roll is determined by the
thickness of the bag, the combination of materials and
the height of the ribbed profile.
The thickness of the bag Status’ bags are characteri-
zed by a 100 μm thick smooth foil and a 130 μm thick
ribbed foil. Their embossed criss-cross pattern helps
that the air is removed more effectively during the
vacuum sealing process.
The combination of materials of polyamide and
polyethylene, affects the (im)permeability of the bag.
Polyamide is the material that affects the permeability
of a bag the most, while the passage of oxygen through
the bag affects the quality of stored food. Compared
to competing brands Status’ bags and foils boast the
thickest layer of polyamide (30 μm) which makes them
the most quality option for storing food.
The height of the ribbed profile determines the qua-
lity of vacuum packing. Status’ bags feature at least
0.2 mm high ribbed layer which enables them all to
be vacuum sealed uniformly whether it be the first of
the 50th vacuum cycle. Thinner bags can be vacuum
sealed well during the initial few cycles (maximum of
10 bags) but later even the quality vacuum packing
machines cannot establish vacuum or generate
enough negative pressure.
Bags and foil rolls are compatible with all brands of
vacuum packing machines.
