Embossed or smooth?
Embossed bags
For external vacuum sealers
R-Vac, RS-Vac, E-Vac and ES-Vac have a fleece texture on one side: its channels let an external sealer pull the air out through the bag.
VS
G-Vac smooth bags
For chamber vacuum sealers
A chamber machine evacuates the whole chamber, bag and product included, so smooth film needs no air channels.
Why smooth film needs a chamber
In an external sealer, smooth film collapses onto itself and blocks the air path, so the machine can't draw the bag down. For a LAVA external sealer, choose the embossed R-Vac or RS-Vac bags instead.
Why G-Vac
A cleaner chamber pack
Smooth bags are the standard in commercial chamber packing. The film sits tighter and flatter against the product, and both sides stay fully transparent, so the pack looks finished on a shelf or at the pass. At 120 microns it is strong enough for storage, bone-in cuts and everyday packing jobs.

04 · FAQ
Common questions
Can I use G-Vac bags with my LAVA external vacuum sealer?
No. G-Vac bags are smooth on both sides, and external vacuum sealers, such as the LAVA V.100 to V.1200, need embossed bags to draw the air out. For an external sealer, choose R-Vac or RS-Vac bags.
What is a chamber vacuum sealer and how is it different from a LAVA external sealer?
A chamber sealer takes the product and bag inside a sealed chamber, evacuates the whole chamber, bag included, then seals the bag before the chamber opens. That's why smooth bags work there. An external sealer, such as the LAVA range, only takes the open end of the bag; its pump draws the air out through the bag, which needs embossed channels.
Why would I choose the G-Vac over the R-Vac for a chamber sealer?
Smooth bags are the standard in commercial chamber packing: a tighter, flatter pack, fully transparent on both sides, for retail display or food service. R-Vac bags work in chamber sealers too, but their texture shows on the finished pack.
What temperature can these bags handle?
Up to 95°C, which covers sous vide and reheating in boiling water. For cooks above 70°C that last longer than 2 hours, use H-Vac cooking bags.
Are these bags food safe?
Yes. G-Vac bags are BPA-free, plasticiser-free and microplastic-free, food-safe, tasteless and odourless.
