Large Commercial Chamber Vacuum Sealer

Types of Vacuum sealers

There are 2 general types of vacuum sealers sold for food storage. The suction vacuum sealer is readily available for under $100. However, it requires rolls and bags with a special mesh on one side in order to suck the air out during the vacuum process. Suction vacuum sealers are tedious to work with and frequently don’t yield a good seal. The other option is the Chamber vacuum sealer.

Advantages of a Vacuum Chamber Sealer

A chamber vacuum sealer evacuates the air from the entire chamber, and consequently, doesn’t require the special mesh. Moreover, it is able to work with a variety of different bag materials, thicknesses, and sizes. Importantly, the comparable rolls and bags for the chamber sealer are much cheaper than the mesh ones.Here is a video showing how it works.
