77cm of Usable Length — The End of the 20cm Pre-Made Series
Within the 20cm-wide R-Vac pre-made bag series, the 20x80cm is the final step. The progression ends here: 20cm, 30cm, 40cm, 60cm, 80cm. Beyond this length, vacuum seal rolls cut to any length are the practical solution.
At 77cm of usable internal length, the bag handles a very specific category of product — one where even the 20x60cm's 57cm falls short.
Built for Products Between 57cm and 74cm
This is the longest pre-made 20cm R-Vac bag format, designed for users who need the speed of a ready-made bag but the length normally associated with custom-cut roll material.
Large Whole Salmon at Full Length
A farmed Atlantic salmon at 60-70cm body length goes into the 20x80cm bag flat, with the head and tail clear of the seal area. A salmon at that size in a 20x60cm bag is at the very limit of the usable length and risks the tail touching or compressing against the weld. The 20x80cm removes that risk entirely.
Whole Large Barramundi and Long Estuary Fish
Barramundi at 60-70cm are a common catch in northern Australia. A whole fish at that length, sealed for the freezer after a trip, needs the 77cm of usable space this bag provides.
Full-Length Game Cuts and Venison
A full venison back strap at 65-70cm, a long loin section from a large deer, or a wild boar loin at full length all suit the 80cm bag. For hunters who process their own game and prefer to freeze cuts intact rather than portioning them, this bag is the right format.
Commercial-Length Salami and Cured Meat Logs
A full 70cm salami log sealed at commercial length — rather than cut in half and sealed in two bags — keeps the casing intact, preserves the presentation, and avoids the cut end that can dry out or oxidise even under vacuum.
Same R-Vac Construction
The fleece-layer construction and material specs are identical to every R-Vac bag in the range. Swiss-made PA/PE multilayer, 90-micron, plasticizer-free, dishwasher-safe, rated for multi-year freezer storage and up to 95°C. Any vacuum sealer with a 20cm or wider seal bar handles this bag — every machine in the LAVA vacuum packaging range qualifies.
Best For
Whole large salmon and barramundi at full body length, large estuary and river fish at 60-75cm, full-length venison back strap and loin sections, complete salami logs at commercial length, full-length game cuts where portioning is not preferred, and any product between 57cm and 74cm that needs a 20cm wide bag.
Machine Compatibility
Compatible with all LAVA vacuum packaging machines and all other external vacuum sealers on the market.
R-Vac 20 x 80cm — Common Questions
What is the difference between the 20 x 80cm and the 20 x 60cm?
Is this the longest pre-made bag in the LAVA range?
In the 20cm-wide series, yes. For wider formats at similar lengths, the R-Vac 40 x 60cm provides 60cm length at 40cm width. For products longer than 77cm in any width, vacuum seal rolls cut to any length are the practical solution.
Should I use a pre-made bag or a roll for products this long?
Can I use this bag for sous vide?
Can I reuse these bags?
Yes. They are dishwasher-safe and reusable. Once cut open, a new seal can be made from the remaining length as long as enough material remains to position across the seal bar.
