WHAT ARE OXYGEN ABSORBERS?One solution to preventing oxygen damage is to use oxygen absorbers. Oxygen absorbers are comprised of powered irons, which work to eliminate the oxygen within a confined environment. Oxygen absorbers do not release harmful gases or toxic elements, thus making them approved. Bakingdom Group distributes a line of oxygen absorbers called JX®, which eliminate oxygen from inside packaged environments. JX® packets will pick up approximately three times their weight in oxygen, which will reduce the need for additives, gas flushing and vacuum packaging. In addition, JX® are a great tool for protecting against both oxidative and microbial rancidity. Rancidity can cause a variety of issues from mold or discoloration, to changing the intended taste or odor of a food or vitamin/pharmaceutical product.
JX® packets are safe and effective for:
* Baked Goods
* Rice, grain, pasta, seeds, pet food & nuts
* Dried fruit & vegetables
* Spices, seasonings & herbs
* Coffee, Tea & Cocoa
* Processed & dried meats
* Pharmaceuticals & vitamins
* Diagnostic Kits & devices
* Art preservation, metal products
Some of the many benefits to using oxygen absorbers:
* Extend product shelf life
* Retain flavors of ingredients and freshness in foods
* Delays browning of fruits and vegetables
* Prevent oxidation of vitamins such as A, C and E
* Environmentally safe and easy to use
