Pulses and cereals are a healthy necessity in every diet and
are added to various meals. Packaging of the product must be done with
high-quality and reliable materials as it can keep these edible items' colour,
texture, aroma, taste, and nutrition values for a long time.
Storing bulk grains and legumes the right way helps protect
their freshness, taste, and nutrients. Oxygen absorbers play a key role by
removing oxygen from the packaging, preventing mold, insects, and oxidation.
OxySorb’s high-capacity oxygen absorbers are trusted for long-term food
preservation in bulk storage applications.
This guide explains how to use OxySorb’s 500cc, 1500cc, and
3000cc oxygen absorbers effectively for storing 2–25 kg of grains, legumes, and
dry food products.
1. Why Use Oxygen Absorbers?
Oxygen absorbers eliminate oxygen inside sealed containers
or bags. This stops the growth of mold, bacteria, and insects, helping keep
food safe and fresh for years.

2. Choosing the Right Size
The correct absorber size depends on how much food you’re
storing. Using the right cc capacity ensures full oxygen removal.
