Wallaby Goods Oxygen Absorbers

These packets contain iron powder that chemically reacts with the oxygen inside your sealed container. By removing the oxygen, they create an environment where mold, bacteria, and pests cannot survive, which helps preserve the nutritional value and freshness of dry goods for up to 30 years.

Yes, Wallaby Goods oxygen absorbers are made from food-grade, BPA-free materials and are FDA compliant. The packets themselves are made of a non-woven fabric designed to keep the active ingredients contained while allowing oxygen to pass through.

Oxygen absorbers begin working the moment they are exposed to air. By packaging them in smaller 10-packs, you avoid exposing the entire supply to the atmosphere at once, ensuring that the remaining packets stay fresh and effective until you are ready to use them.

No, these are single-use items. Once an oxygen absorber has been exposed to air and has completed its absorption process, it cannot be recharged or reused.

They work best in airtight containers like Mylar bags, #10 cans, and food-safe jars. Because they rely on creating a vacuum seal, they are not effective in containers that are not completely airtight, such as standard plastic bags or loosely sealed bins.

No, these are strictly oxygen absorbers. They are designed to remove oxygen to prevent spoilage and oxidation, but they do not absorb moisture. If you are storing items that are sensitive to humidity, you may want to include a separate food-safe desiccant packet.
