2.3 Vacuum drawer
The drawer consists of an internal vacuum
chamber in which the vacuum is created.
The pump completely eliminates the air from
the outside and the inside of the bag.
The bag is then hermetically sealed by the
sealing bar with a double heat seal.
Vacuum sealing helps to protect food from
being contaminated by dust and microbes.
The vacuum system completely eliminates
air, especially oxygen, which causes the
oxidation of food.
Advantages:
• Halts the oxidation process
• Preserves flavours, aromas, colours and
nutritional properties of foods
• Prevents the growth of parasites in pasta,
rice, flour and dried fruit
• Prevents the growth of microorganisms
and bacteria
• Prevents oils and fats from becoming
rancid
•Prevents mould, even in foods preserved
in oil
• Prevents the spread of odours
• Prevents freezer burn
• Allows food to be preserved for longer
• Reduces food waste because it can be
kept for longer
• Allows food to be correctly vacuum-
sealed for sous-vide cooking.
