Invention of vacuum packaging

Vacuum packaging is a modern technique for packaging food products. It involves the extraction of the air contained in the package and then hermetically sealing it.

In 1940’s invention of vacuum packs to store foods was made. These were first industrial sealers invented and they were small. Home vacuum sealers were first invented and made in use by a German inventor named Karl Busch and he made an entry into the market with industrial sealers first in 1963.

In the beginning, vacuum packaging was used on a much smaller scale than it is today. Basically, in 1963 sealers that were made were very simple and with basic functioning. Vacuum sealers made their commercial debut in the 1960s and 70s when grocery stores would seal turkeys. Originally most of the packaging was done to protect the food of families and soldiers who were going to war.
