Why Is Our Wholesale Price So Low?
Because this is what we do.
Discount Mylar Bags has sold oxygen absorbers and high-barrier food-storage packaging since 2010. We buy commercial quantities and keep our markup low.
Low price does not mean low capacity.
FreshUS is an established commercial oxygen-absorber manufacturer, and independent testing has shown its absorbers substantially exceeding their labeled capacity. (300cc oxygen absorbers tested at 890cc actual; drop us a note for the video and testing mechanism)
We still recommend every absorber according to its rated capacity. Any capacity beyond the rating should be considered reserve—not something you need to depend upon.
The Packaging Matters as Much as the Price
One of the biggest problems with buying absorbers in bulk is exposure after the package is opened.
That is why we like the FreshUS factory packaging.
Our most popular case sizes are divided into small sealed inner packs, allowing you to open only what you can use during a packaging session.
For example:
300cc case = 1,000 absorbers packed as 100 sealed packs of 10
Instead of opening 50, 100 or hundreds of absorbers at once, you can open ten, use them, and leave the rest protected.
For a freeze-dry business, food producer or commercial packager, that can mean less waste and a much easier production workflow.
Wholesale Case Selection Guide
| Absorber Size | Case Quantity | Inner Packaging | Best Uses |
|---|---|---|---|
| 50cc | 6,000 | 60 packs of 100 | Small pouches, spices, seeds and low-headspace packages |
| 100cc | 4,000 | 40 packs of 100 | Pint and quart packages, small snacks and dry ingredients |
| 300cc | 1,000 | 100 packs of 10 | Dense foods in 1-gallon bags — rice, beans, wheat and similar products |
| 500cc | 1,000 | 100 packs of 10 | Freeze-dried foods, pasta, oats and other bulky/high-headspace 1-gallon packages |
| 2000cc | 340 | 34 packs of 10 | 5-gallon Mylar bags, buckets and bulk dry-food storage |
Simple 1-Gallon Rule:
Dense food = 300cc
Bulky or freeze-dried food = 500cc
Unsure = 500cc
The correct absorber size depends on how much air remains inside the finished package—not simply the nominal size of the bag.
Built for Businesses That Actually Use Them
FreshUS wholesale cases are a good fit for:
- Freeze-dry businesses
- Commercial food packagers
- Cottage food businesses
- Preparedness retailers
- Farms and food producers
- Co-packers
- Pet-food and treat producers
- Seed and dry-goods packagers
- Emergency-food programs
- High-volume home food storage
If you are packaging hundreds or thousands of bags, call or email us before assuming the website price is the only quantity we can handle.
We have been supplying businesses with bulk Mylar bags, oxygen absorbers and custom packaging for years.
Why FreshUS?
Self-Reacting Formulation
FreshUS S-type oxygen absorbers are designed to begin working without relying on moisture from the packaged food for activation.
That makes them particularly useful with very dry products and freeze-dried foods.
Designed for Extremely Low Residual Oxygen
In properly sealed high-barrier packaging, FreshUS absorbers are designed to reduce residual oxygen to extremely low levels.
Small Factory Packs
Bulk quantity does not mean bulk exposure.
The small inner packages let you open manageable quantities while keeping the rest of the case sealed.
Oxygen Indicators Included
Sealed packs include oxygen indicators so you have a visual indication of the low-oxygen condition inside the unopened package.
Fast Shipping
In-stock cases normally ship the same or next business day.
Free Shipping
Wholesale FreshUS cases currently ship FREE within our standard free-shipping area.
The price you see is the price you can actually budget around.
Independent Performance Testing
We believe oxygen absorbers should be judged by what they actually absorb—not by the price printed on the package.
Independent tester Phil @ 4800 evaluated FreshUS and other major oxygen-absorber brands using a volumetric oxygen-capacity test.
FreshUS samples substantially exceeded their labeled capacity.
We are currently organizing the original testing, measurements and video documentation so customers can examine the results themselves.
We don't ask you to rely on excess test capacity when sizing your packages.
A FreshUS 300cc absorber should be selected as a 300cc absorber.
The excess capacity is valuable because it provides evidence of manufacturing reserve above the advertised rating.
300cc or 500cc for a 1-Gallon Bag?
This depends on the food.
Choose 300cc for densely packed foods:
- Rice
- Beans
- Wheat
- Dense grains
- Flour and similar compact dry products
Choose 500cc for high-headspace foods:
- Freeze-dried foods
- Pasta
- Oats
- Bulky snacks
- Loosely packed products
A one-gallon bag filled tightly with rice contains far less trapped air than the same bag filled with freeze-dried strawberries.
If you don't know what your customer will be packaging, 500cc is the conservative choice.
Handling FreshUS Absorbers in Production
FreshUS absorbers begin reacting once exposed to air.
For best results:
- Prepare your bags and product before opening the absorber pack.
- Open only as many inner packs as you expect to use.
- Place absorbers into the packages and heat seal promptly.
- Reseal unused absorbers immediately in a high-barrier pouch or airtight glass container.
- Keep unopened inventory in a cool, dry location until needed.
You do not need to panic—but don't leave open absorbers sitting around unnecessarily.
What Foods Are Appropriate?
Oxygen absorbers are designed for properly dry, shelf-stable products such as:
- Rice
- Beans
- Grains
- Flour
- Pasta
- Oats
- Freeze-dried foods
- Dehydrated foods
- Powdered ingredients
- Dry mixes
- Herbs and spices
- Pet foods and treats
- Seeds
- Other properly dried packaged products
Sugar and salt generally do not need oxygen absorbers.
Oxygen absorbers are not a substitute for proper processing, refrigeration, freezing or canning of moist/perishable foods.
Need Bags Too?
We supply both retail and wholesale Mylar bags, including:
- 5 mil heavy-duty bags
- 7.5 mil heavy-duty bags
- Stand-up and gusseted bags
- MRE / meal pouches
- Freeze-dry bags
- SteelPak high-barrier vacuum packaging
- Custom-produced bags
If your business needs both bags and absorbers, contact us. We can help you match the absorber size to the package and product rather than simply guessing from bag dimensions.
Need More Than a Case?
If you're regularly purchasing several cases at a time, need pallet quantities, or are packaging a commercial product, talk to us.
We work with businesses ranging from small freeze-dry operations to high-volume commercial customers.
Tell us:
- What you're packaging
- Bag size
- Approximate monthly volume
- Absorber capacity
- Current package configuration
We'll tell you what makes sense—even if the answer is simply to keep ordering the standard case.
