The following is the packing operation:
1. Set the proper temperature on the vacuum machine and hot water tunnel;
2. Put the opening of the bag on the sealing strip. Make sure the product is not too hot (with steam) and has minimal contamination to ensure a longer shelf life. Check the sealing area for wrinkles to avoid breakage;
3. Make sure the product is not pressed against the bottom of the bag and the sealing area is completely clean;
4. Leave about 5cm of space between the product and the vacuum seal. This is to improve the vacuum effect and also to allow the product to have a certain expansion space after freezing (for frozen products);
5. Put the vacuum-packed product into the water for 1-2 seconds.
The advantages of shrinkage:
1. Longer shelf life: the increased barrier means longer shelf life, making the product fresher and longer;
2. Beautiful: no edges, no wrinkles, and enhanced product attractiveness;
3. Less chance of leakage: only One bottom seal, less chance of leakage;
4. No need for post-pasteurization while maintaining the shelf life, thereby enhancing product flavor and saving costs;
5. Saving packaging materials: 40um Shrink Bag is better than 80um vacuum.
