Why Oxygen Barrier Matters for Food Storage
Long-term food storage fails when oxygen and moisture reach the product. Our food-storage mylar uses a heavier laminate and a true oxygen barrier built for years, not weeks — for general-purpose pouches without the food-preservation build, see our standard Best Mylar Bags line.
Common Use Cases
- Emergency food supply: Long-term storage for grains, beans, and freeze-dried meals.
- Bulk pantry staples: Rice, flour, oats, and dry goods sold in bulk.
- Dehydrated and freeze-dried food brands: Shelf-stable retail packaging.
- Homesteading and prepper supply companies: Bulk storage pouches for resale.
Material and Format Options
Food-storage mylar runs heavier than standard retail pouches, typically 5 to 7.5 mil, to maximize barrier performance. Sizes range from quart pouches up to 5-gallon bulk bags, and all are compatible with oxygen absorbers for maximum shelf life.
Eco-Friendly Packaging
A 2025 McKinsey & Company survey found over 60% of U.S. consumers pick green packaging when they have the choice. Crat Packaging offers recyclable and FSC-certified board options across our product lines so food storage brands can pair long shelf life with sustainable business practices.
