Are Smell Proof Bags Food Safe?
Yes — our smell proof bags use food-grade inner materials suitable for direct contact with dry foods such as snacks, coffee, tea, herbs, and spices. For best results, store dry items, squeeze out excess air, and reseal after each use.
Food-Grade Inner Materials
Our smell proof bags use food-grade inner materials, which means the layer in contact with your items is suitable for dry foods. That makes them appropriate for storing snacks, coffee, tea, dried herbs, and spices.
What "food safe" means
Food-safe (or food-grade) materials are manufactured to be safe for direct contact with food. It's still best practice to use bags for dry goods, keep them clean, and avoid storing wet or oily foods for long periods.
Best practices for food storage
- Store dry items and squeeze out excess air before sealing.
- Reseal fully after each use to preserve freshness and contain aromas.
- Keep bags in a cool, dark place away from heat.
- Replace a bag if the lining becomes saturated after heavy use.
Great for aromatic foods
Because the same barrier that keeps external odours out also keeps aromas in, these bags are ideal for strong-smelling foods. See the best way to store coffee beans and our food storage range.
