VacFlex – 6″ x 50′ Vacuum Seal Rolls – 4 Pack are the perfect solution for food storage at a lower cost of similar brand name rolls. These bags are ideal for sealing anything including meats, produce, pantry items and leftovers.
Chamber vacuum pouches and vacuum seal bags for external sealers are the same exact composition of coextruded polyethylene and nylon. Now that we have that out of the way, what is the differences? The products have three simple differences!
The first difference is the texture. Chamber vacuum pouches are smooth in texture whereas the vacuum bags are embossed causing a dimpled texture.
The second one would be standard thickness. 3 mil vacuum chamber bags tend to be the standard for a chamber vacuum sealer such as our JVR Vac100 or Vac110. Units like foodsaver, weston and so forth tend to use bags that are around 4-mil thick. Vacuum sealer bags and rolls need to be thicker so it can more easily be embossed without punctures or failures at the creation state. Chamber vacuum pouches not only come in 3 mil, but also in 4-7 mil options! Not only do you gain this benefit, but you pay much less due to less tooling in order to make the product. That leads us to difference #3!
Now finally on to the last and third reason why these two products are different: COST! Cost is everything when it comes to something used so frequently. Everyone needs to save food, money and time. The chamber vacuum pouches are significantly less expensive than its counterpart vacuum bags. With this product you can save up to $0.47 per pouch as opposed to the expensive vacuum seal bags and rolls. Why are they so much less expensive you may ask? Simple! The two differences above explain it all. Standard thickness and embossment crank up the price on external vacuum seal bags and rolls. Save up to $1,000.00 in the first year if you are using 6 pouches a day!
