Keep food fresh and healthy

Vacuvita is based on a simple fact - when you remove oxygen, food 
stays fresh up to five times longer. Vacuvita is a fully-automatic vacuum 
food storage system. By removing air and storing food in an airtight 
environment you protect your food against humidity and other outside 
influences. Cookies and chips stay crispy, coffee beans keep their 
wonderful smell and fruits and vegetables retain their rich flavours. 
Placing food in a vacuum bag will prevent freezer burn, wich is caused by 
dehydration and oxidation that occur when storing food in the freezer.    

The Vacuvita easy access vacuum storage system is one of a kind. 

 

Just one touch is enough to release the vacuum immediately. 

 

The Vacuvita Home Base’s lid will open by itself so you can access your 
food within seconds. The springs and dampers are perfectly balanced 
for smooth opening and one-handed closing of the cover. Creating 
a vacuum is as easy as closing the lid. Your Vacuvita system can be 
expanded to your fridge and freezer with our specially designed Vacuvita 
containers and vacuum bags.

Because Vacuvita is so versatile and easy to use, you will find yourself 
eating fresh foods more often. 

Please carefully read this manual to ensure that you will use your 
Vacuvita products in the most effective and safe way and get the best 
results possible.
