Is a vacuum sealer the same as a heat sealer?

No, they are different. A vacuum sealer removes the air from a bag before sealing while a heat sealer seals the bag closed by applying heat.

What are the different types of heat sealers?

There are a range of different heat sealers available, and the heat sealer best suited for you will depend on your individual needs. There are constant heat sealers, band sealers, benchtop heat sealers, foot operated heat sealers, hand held heat sealers, vacuum sealers and so much more. Give our team at Venus Packaging a call at (03) 9428 1652 to help decide which heat sealer is right for your business.

Why should I vacuum seal my product?

Vacuum packaging extends the shelf life of any fresh perishable product by three to five times its normal refrigerated life. By removing the air that surrounds food, vacuum sealing inhibits the growth of bacteria, mould and yeast as these microorganisms need oxygen to grow. Due to this, vacuum sealing not only allows for reducing food waste but also money saving quantity buying. Food can be bought in bulk then repackaged using a vacuum sealer. Vacuum sealers also allow for more efficient use of time, as meals can be prepared in advance, frozen and sealed to be consumed at a later date without compromising on freshness.

We have been using Venus Packaging for 8 years now for our cake manufacturing business in Richmond. We have purchased several of their sealing machines which we are still using to this day even though we have a flow wrap machine for bigger jobs.We also purchase pallet wrap and packing tape on a regular basis.The team at Venus are always happy and chatty and nothing is s problem. Thanks for your excellent service always.

We recently reviewed some different shrink wrappers and decided on Venus Uni H25 as the customer service from beginning to end was easily the best. I spoke with the sales team, organised a demo the next day, where we brought 2 of our products to be shrink wrapped so we could see how they looked. Ended up purchasing the next day. Our staff love the ease of use and efficiencies that our new wrapper has given us. 👍🏻👍🏻 Thanks Venus!

My bench top heat sealer is fabulous! I wasn’t sure which model to buy so I called them and was given all the info I needed to buy the right one for my small business. The sales person I spoke to was really helpful. Heat sealer arrived the day after I ordered it. Recommend to everyone!

I purchased my heat sealer from Venus 4 years to use in my cookie business! Best investment ever! Hasn’t skipped a beat after being used numerous times a week! I’ve needed to replace the heat strip once only because I melted a bag that wasn’t meant to be used on it. Getting a replacement part was quick & easy.

As a small Business owner it is very challenging to find the right product. As we are price sensitive and look for the best quality option with 1,000 questions to ask. Venus Packaging makes you feel that they are there for you and for your needs no matter how many questions you ask and even go there and try the product as a trial. Very happy with their sales and customer service. A special shout out to Jamie Pang who is their sales exec and does a top job.RegardsPankaj AgarwalFounder/DirectorPure n Cure Pty Ltd

Great customer service, we've been looking for, "easy to use" ties for our fruit trees, Jamie was very helpful providing information and samples to help us decide, thank you. We only had a very small order but, were treated as if we had placed a large order! Do you have an Instgram account so I can follow you? Would not hesitate to use this company again.

I have bought from Venus 3 times since the Victorian lockdown started, and their products are of high quality and the customer service is really great. The sales staff explained my packaging options really well over the phone which allowed us to make an informed (and cost-effective!) decision on what was best for our company. It was easy to collect (contactless arrangements) too. Also the machine techs / after sales service was spot on. Thanks guys.
