No, it is not recommended to use PP (polypropylene) or PE (polyethylene) bags for vacuum sealers. Vacuum sealers work by removing the air from the packaging to create an airtight seal, which helps in preserving the freshness of the contents inside.
PP and PE bags are generally not suitable for vacuum sealing because they are not designed to withstand the vacuum sealing process. These bags are often too porous and may not hold a proper seal, which can lead to air leakage and compromise the effectiveness of vacuum sealing. Additionally, they may not have the necessary structural integrity to withstand the pressure created by the vacuum sealer.
For vacuum sealing, it's best to use specially designed vacuum sealer bags or vacuum sealer rolls made from materials like polyethylene with an outer layer of nylon. These bags are more suitable for the vacuum sealing process as they are designed to be airtight and can handle the pressure created by the vacuum sealer, ensuring a proper seal and optimal preservation of the contents inside.
