Embossed Vacuum Bags 300x400 mm: professional food preservation
The 300x400 mm embossed vacuum bags are professional bags for vacuum sealing, supplied in packs of 100 pieces and cartons of 10 packs, for a total of 1,000 bags per carton. Made of food-grade multilayer plastic film, they are designed for external-suction vacuum sealers: the embossed inner texture creates micro-channels that allow complete air extraction even without a chamber machine.
How embossed vacuum bags work
Unlike smooth bags, which require a chamber vacuum machine, embossed bags feature a textured inner surface. When the sealer pulls the air out, the embossed channels keep an open path for the airflow until the very end of the cycle, ensuring a tight, uniform vacuum and a strong, reliable seal on the welding bar.
Format and packaging
The 300x400 mm size is the most versatile professional format: large enough for whole cuts of meat, fish fillets, cured meats, cheeses, cleaned vegetables and ready-made bases, yet easy to handle and store. Each pack contains 100 bags, and the full carton holds 10 packs, securing a long-lasting supply for high-volume kitchens.
Why vacuum sealing matters in a professional kitchen
Vacuum sealing removes the oxygen that drives oxidation and microbial growth, significantly extending the shelf life of fresh food compared with traditional storage. It protects against humidity, freezer burn and cross-contamination, supports clean labelling and dating of preparations, and is fully consistent with HACCP procedures for professional kitchens.
Professional uses
Typical applications include portioning meat and fish for the week of service, storing sliced cured meats and cheeses behind the counter, protecting mise en place and sauces, compacting marinated products, and organising the cold room with labelled, dated portions. The bags are also suitable for sous-vide style organisation of prepped ingredients before service.
Common mistakes to avoid
Do not overfill the bag: leave at least 5 cm of free film above the product to obtain a clean weld. Avoid sealing liquids without chilling them first, as droplets on the weld area compromise the seam. Always check that the inner embossed side faces the product and store unused bags away from heat and direct light.
Delivery and logistics
B2B and B2C delivery from the LAPA warehouse in Embrach (Zurich) across Switzerland: direct distribution over Zurich, Winterthur, Schaffhausen, St. Gallen, Aargau, Bern and Basel, and 24-48 hour shipping with partner couriers (Swiss Post, Planzer, Galliker) to Ticino (Lugano, Bellinzona), French-speaking Switzerland (Geneva, Lausanne, Fribourg) and Graubunden (Chur, Davos).
