Description
O’Buster Oxygen Absorber Sachets (7 sizes)
The O’BUSTER oxygen absorbers naturally safeguard food products against bacteria and allow for long term food storage.
How it Works
Oxygen absorbers are a safe, natural, and non-toxic aid that removes 99.9% of oxygen in packaged food products.
It is not a preservative or additive! It is a sachet that is placed inside the packaged food product, maintaining the freshness of the product!
Features:
* Effectively brings down the oxygen levels– The main use of O’BUSTERs is for reducing the levels of oxygen present in packages so that the product can enjoy an extended shelf life. O’BUSTER’s carry out this function efficiently as they absorb nearly 99% of the oxygen present in the closed space. Experts are of the opinion that amongst all the technology available today, oxygen absorbers are the best in maintaining optimum oxygen levels.
* Cost-Effective: Another major advantage of using O’BUSTER’S is that it is highly inexpensive and thus proves cost-effective while transporting food products to faraway places. Cost is an important factor to consider during long-distance transportation and the use of less expensive Oxygen Absorbers is always an advantage.
* Readily Available: Another major advantage of O’BUSTER’S is that they are easily available and one can order them through our website.
* Easily Disposable: Last but not least, the main advantage of O’BUSTER’S is that they are environmentally friendly and can be disposed of using the regular disposal methods. They do not require any special method for disposal.
O’BUSTER Uses

1. Baked goods
2. Confectionary
3. Seeds and Nuts
4. Processed food
5. Pet feed and treats
6. Jerky and biltong
What are the benefits of using O’BUSTERS?
Extends the shelf life of food products.
Prevents growth of aerobic pathogens and spoilage organisms, including moulds.
Eliminates the need for additives such as BHA, BHT, sulfur dioxide, sorbates, benzoates, etc.
How do O’BUSTERS work?
O’BUSTERS perform their action through a chemical reaction. O’BUSTERS contain iron powder which reacts with the oxygen in the air causing the iron powder to rust. When all the iron powder has oxidized, the O’BUSTER is “loaded” and the absorbing action stops. Remove the oxygen from an active absorber and the chemical reaction stops. Put them back in the air and the reaction starts again until the iron is gone.
What are O’BUSTERS made of and are they dangerous if they come in contact with food?
O’BUSTERS are small packets that contain an iron powder. The packets are made of a material that allows oxygen and moisture to enter but does not allow the iron powder to leak out. O’BUSTERS are safe to place on top of the food. O’BUSTERS will not harm the food they are in contact with as they come in a sealed pouch.
How long does it take for O’BUSTERS to work?
O’BUSTERS become warm to the touch when they are working. They take about 24 hours to achieve their rated maximum absorption.
Is the use of O’BUSTERS equivalent to vacuum packaging?
O’BUSTERS remove oxygen more effectively than vacuum packaging. Air is about 20 percent oxygen and 80 percent nitrogen. O’BUSTERS remove only the oxygen. The air left in the container is mostly nitrogen and will not affect the food or allow the growth of insects. Therefore, the final packaging may not have the appearance of being “vacuum-packed” because of the remaining nitrogen in the package. The only way to get a good vacuum seal inside the bag is to use a vacuum sealer.
O’BUSTERS alone will not be able to accomplish this as they only remove oxygen, which is roughly 20% of the air inside the bag. However, the goal should be to remove the oxygen as the remaining contents of the air will not affect the long-term storage life of your food.
How To Measure The Size Of Your Packaging
Height x Width x Depth and then subtract the total grams of the product and then multiply by 20%
Important Note:
Once you open a pack you must re-seal the pack again, within a 2 hour window period, or store the remaining unused absorbers in an air tight container. Iff you do, the remaining O’Busters will be good to use. If you do not, they will start to absorb the oxygen from the air and will not be usable later.
Tip: If you are using the O’Busters in dried food products, you will not need to use a dessicant as well. The O’Buster will definitely do the job of keeping the product fresh, insect free and even retain the colour of the foodstuff.
