1000cc Oxygen Absorber (Packs of 10) - Use in 2 gallon bags, or use 2 in a 5-gallon bag. More convenient as it is like having 5 - 2000cc absorbers if necessary.

When to use desiccant (moisture absorbers): In general we don't recommend using desiccant in food storage unless your humidity level is above 25-30% on the day you package your food. If it is humid, using a desiccant will reduce the moisture levels in your bags and help protect your food.
1 Gram Desiccant (Packs of 50) - Protects 47 cubic inches; use 1 in a 1 quart container.
2 Gram Desiccant (Packs of 50) - Protects 94 cubic inches; use 1 in a 1 gallon container.
3 Gram Desiccant (Packs of 20) - Protects 141 cubic inches; use 1 in porous 1 gallon, or use 2 in a 2 gallon container.
10 Gram Desiccant (Packs of 20) - Protects 470 cubic inches; use 1 in a 5 gallon container.
How to seal
: If you are only doing a few bags, a clothes iron (on the wool setting or a little higher) or a hair straightener work perfectly. If you are a business or prep group sealing hundreds of bags, consider a
KF-150cst Heat Sealer
hand sealer to make the job a breeze.
How Many Oxygen Absorbers Should I Use?:
The general rule of thumb is to use 300-500cc per 1 gallon of bag. Thus for a 1 gallon bag, use 1-2 300cc oxygen absorbers. For a 5 gallon bag, use a 2000cc oxygen absorber.
About ShieldPro
- We are a family-owned and run company based out of Nashville, TN. However, we don't just sell our products...we use them. We have been preppers going on 10 years. Our preparedness group has used ShieldPro bags to store over 25 person-years of food (and counting). We believe in the values of preparedness, financial and personal responsibility, and a strong work ethic.
I founded ShieldPro based on those values. This means that I will make your order right, no matter what. Whether that means an easy, hassle-free return, or a reshipped item if we've screwed something up. Because of this, I hope you will give us a chance to fix any problems before you leave anything other than 5-star feedback. This business is our livelihood, and feedback is the lifeblood of that business.
Please let me know if you have any questions, I look forward to serving you!
