Can I Wash, Reseal, Boil, Microwave, and Freeze Them?

Can I wash them?

Yes, they're safe to wash and to be washed in a dishwasher, and reused.

Bags that previously contained fruits, vegetables, breads and dry goods can be washed and reused. Discard and do not wash bags that contained raw meats, fish, eggs or cheese, because they may contain bacteria that will remain after washing. Please also discard bags that contained greasy or oily foods - they're hard to wash clean.

Can I reseal them?

Yes, just cut the old seal line out and then reseal the bag. Be sure to wipe clean the new seal line of any food or grease, so you get a strong seal just as before.

Can I boil them?

Yes, you can boil them for hours and they won't lose their integrity, they will also not pass any color, odor or toxic substances into the food.

Can I microwave them?

Yes, OutOfAir bags are microwave safe.

When microwaving, please cut open a corner of the bag to allow steam to escape. Also, please try to not microwave foods containing a lot of oil - oil gets hot fast and it can cause the sides of the bag to stick together.

Can I freeze them?

For sure. As compared to 3 mil bags, our 7-layered 4 mil thick plastic provides you with even more safety against bags losing seal or freezer burn.
