Oxygen Absorbers

Bee Chems presents its advanced oxygen absorber packets and oxygen absorber sachets — designed to preserve quality, extend shelf life, and protect packaged goods from oxidative damage.

Why Oxygen Absorbers Matter

Oxygen, even in trace amounts, can trigger oxidation, rancidity, discoloration, microbial growth, and spoilage in food, pharmaceuticals, and packaged products. An effective oxygen absorber sachets solution is essential to guard against these detrimental effects — especially over long storage, transit, and shelf life

Bee Chems is a leading manufacturer of oxygen scavengers, oxygen absorber packets, oxygen absorber sachets, and custom absorber solutions.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: What are oxygen absorbers and how do they work?
A: Oxygen absorbers are small sachets containing reactive compounds, typically iron powder, that remove oxygen from sealed packaging. When exposed to moisture, the iron oxidizes—trapping oxygen and reducing the O₂ level inside the package to below 0.01%. This prevents spoilage, oxidation, and microbial growth.
Q2: Are Bee Chems oxygen absorbers safe for food packaging?
A: Yes. Bee Chems oxygen absorber packets are manufactured using food-grade, non-toxic materials that comply with US FDA and EU packaging safety standards. They can be used safely in direct contact with dry food items such as snacks, spices, coffee, and bakery products.
Q3: How do oxygen absorbers extend shelf life?
A: By eliminating oxygen, these sachets prevent the oxidation of fats, vitamins, and natural pigments. They also inhibit aerobic bacteria and mold growth, helping maintain color, aroma, and texture for an extended shelf life—often doubling or tripling freshness duration.
Q4: What types of products require oxygen absorbers?
A: Oxygen absorbers are widely used across industries:

  • Food packaging: nuts, cereals, spices, and dehydrated meals
  • Pharmaceuticals: tablets, capsules, and diagnostic kits
  • Industrial: metal parts and electronics to prevent corrosion

They are ideal for any product sensitive to oxidation or moisture and perform best with oxygen absorber sachets and oxygen absorber packets for tailored protection.

Q5: How should oxygen absorbers be stored before use?
A: Keep sachets sealed in their original airtight packaging until use. Once opened, use immediately or reseal tightly. Store in a cool, dry environment below 30°C with relative humidity under 50%. Proper storage ensures optimal absorption performance for up to 24 months.
