Each Wallaby 2500cc absorber comes vacuum-sealed in a single-use pack so you can open only what you need and keep the remainder fresh for later. These 20-count packs fit neatly in 5-gallon Mylar bags and other airtight containers used for grains, beans, powders, and dehydrated or Harvest Right freeze-dried foods.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do these absorbers work inside a 5-gallon Mylar bag?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach 2500cc packet contains iron-based oxygen scavenging material that reacts with oxygen, lowering the available oxygen inside sealed containers. They do not remove nitrogen or reduce total air volume; about 21% of air (the oxygen portion) is consumed while the remaining gases stay in the bag.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2500cc capacity suitable for standard 5-gallon Mylar bags.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIndividually vacuum-sealed to protect unused absorbers from moisture and air.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUse with airtight seals — zippers, heat-sealed Mylar, or jar lids for best results.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy choose individually sealed 1-packs instead of a bulk bundle?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIndividually sealed packets prevent accidental exposure of the whole supply to air and moisture. Opening only what you need preserves activity of remaining packets and reduces waste, which is especially useful when storing small or varying batch sizes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOne-packs reduce risk of ruined absorbers after a single use.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eConvenient for intermittent packing sessions or small harvests.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOuter zipper storage bag keeps the sealed packs organized and easy to access.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eAre Wallaby absorbers safe for food storage and long-term use?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes — the packet materials are food-grade and designed for safe use in short- and long-term food storage. Wallaby tests its products to ensure they meet applicable safety standards; still, absorbers should not be ingested and must remain in their packets inside the container.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFood-grade packet material for direct contact with packaged food items.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIntended for dry goods like grains, pasta, spices, and freeze-dried meals.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDo not consume the packet contents; keep away from children and pets.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow should I store and use these absorbers for best results?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStore the unopened 1-packs inside the provided resealable outer bag in a cool, dry place. When packing, place the absorber into the sealed container quickly and complete the final seal to minimize air exchange; one 2500cc absorber is sized for a typical 5-gallon Mylar bag filled with dry goods.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eKeep unused packs vacuum-sealed inside the outer zipper bag until needed.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eInsert absorber last, then heat-seal or zip the Mylar bag immediately.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRemember absorbers remove oxygen (about 21% of air) but not the other gases.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWho is this for? These Wallaby 2500cc oxygen absorbers are aimed at home preservers, prepper enthusiasts, small-scale commercial packers, and anyone using Mylar bags or Harvest Right freeze dryers who wants a reliable, single-use oxygen control solution. They suit people who prefer to open one packet at a time to preserve the remainder, store a variety of dry goods from spices to grains, and want a food-grade absorber supplied in an organized, resealable outer bag.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"product-faq-snippet\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-q\"\u003eQ: How many absorbers do I need for a 5-gallon Mylar bag?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-a\"\u003eA: One Wallaby 2500cc absorber is typically sized for a standard 5-gallon Mylar bag filled with dry goods.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-q\"\u003eQ: Can I reuse an unopened absorber packet later?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-a\"\u003eA: Yes—unused packets should remain vacuum-sealed in the outer zipper bag to retain effectiveness until opened.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"Wallaby","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49211121664219,"sku":"B09BPV82W5","price":47.16,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0845\/1188\/3483\/files\/wallaby-front-packaging-2500cc.jpg?v=1788283083","url":"https:\/\/homelypantry.co.uk\/products\/wallaby-2500cc-oxygen-absorbers-20-individually-sealed-packs-for-5-gallon-mylar-bags-long-term-food-storage","provider":"The Homely Pantry","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
