25cm Wide, 37cm Usable — When the 35cm Length Is Not Quite Enough
Within the 25cm-wide series, the 25 x 35cm handles the majority of products that need the extra width over the 20cm bags. Its usable internal length is approximately 32cm. For most large chicken breasts, thick steaks, and standard wider cuts, that is sufficient.
The 25 x 40cm is for products that share the 25cm width requirement but run longer than 32cm. At approximately 37cm of usable internal length, the additional 5cm opens up a specific set of products.
Extra Length Without Moving to a Wider Bag
This format keeps the practical 25cm width while adding the extra internal length needed for longer proteins, paired portions, and wider batch-cooked meals that sit too close to the seal line in a 25 x 35cm bag.
Whole Duck Breasts
A full duck breast from a larger bird, a Muscovy or a Peking duck, typically runs 30-35cm in length at its longest. At 32cm of usable space, the 25x35cm is tight. At 37cm, the duck breast sits with comfortable room above the product for a clean weld.
Full-Length Pork Tenderloins
A whole pork fillet at 35-40cm can be sealed intact rather than portioned. The 25cm width accommodates the rounded body without compression, while the 40cm length provides the usable space for the full-length cut.
Two Chicken Breasts Side by Side
Sealing a pair of chicken breasts in one bag, flat side to flat side, covers approximately 24-25cm in width and 28-32cm in length. The 25x40cm fits this format cleanly where the 25x35cm is occasionally borderline on length.
Long Salmon and Wide Fish Portions
A thick salmon steak or a wide fish fillet at 32-35cm in length benefits from the extra length margin, allowing the product to sit naturally without crowding the seal area.
Useful for Double-Serve Batch Cooking
Two serves of a stew or a casserole placed flat in the bag for freezer storage need enough width for the wider pour and enough length to seal cleanly without product contact near the opening. The 25cm width handles the portion spread, while the 40cm length gives room for a cleaner seal.
Same R-Vac Construction
The fleece-layer construction, material specs, and temperature ratings 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 25cm or wider seal bar handles this bag, every machine in the LAVA vacuum packaging range qualifies.
Best For
Whole duck breasts, full-length pork tenderloins, paired chicken breasts, long thick fish portions, and any product that is 25cm wide but runs past the 32cm usable length of the 25x35cm bag.
Machine Compatibility
Compatible with all LAVA vacuum packaging machines and all other external vacuum sealers on the market.
R-Vac 25 x 40cm — Common Questions
What is the difference between the 25 x 40cm and the 25 x 35cm?
What is the difference between the 25 x 40cm and the 30 x 40cm?
Can I use this bag for sous vide?
Can I reuse these bags?
Yes. They are dishwasher-safe and reusable multiple times. Once cut open, a new seal can be made from the remaining material as long as enough length remains to position across the seal bar.
