Oxygen Absorbers (100-Pack)

Remove all oxygen and extend food shelf life by 10x — the oxygen absorbers every serious food storage system requires.

  • 300cc and 2000cc sizes cover all common food storage container configurations
  • Creates a true oxygen-free environment that prevents oxidation rancidity and insect survival
  • 100-pack provides enough for a complete initial household food storage system build
  • Individual sealed packaging maintains absorber potency until the moment of use

Oxygen absorbers are the critical component that extends shelf life from 1 to 2 years to 25 to 30 years

Food storage professionals universally identify oxygen as the primary cause of long-term food degradation

The single most important addition to any mylar bag and bucket food storage system

Why This Matters

Oxygen is the primary cause of long-term food degradation — causing oxidation rancidity vitamin loss and supporting insect survival. Oxygen absorbers reduce oxygen levels inside sealed containers to below 0.01% creating storage conditions that extend shelf life from 1 to 2 years to 25 to 30 years for grains beans and other dry foods.

Product Description

Oxygen Absorbers are essential for long-term food storage in mylar bags, mason jars, and sealed buckets. This 100-pack of food-grade 300cc absorbers removes 99.9% of oxygen from the container, preventing oxidation, mold, and insect activity that degrade stored food. Compatible with all dry goods including grains, beans, pasta, and dried fruits. When used with mylar bags or airtight containers, oxygen absorbers can extend shelf life to 25+ years.

Real Use Case

You are sealing 10 buckets of rice and beans for long-term storage. Without oxygen absorbers your sealed mylar bags would still contain the 21% oxygen in atmospheric air — limiting shelf life to 1 to 3 years and allowing potential insect egg hatching. With 2000cc oxygen absorbers in each 5-gallon bag the oxygen drops below 0.01% within 24 hours — creating storage conditions that maintain food quality for 25 to 30 years.
