20 Lakeland Stayfresh Longer Vegetable Storage Bags 25 x 38cm

Ideal for storing vegetables like courgettes and carrots, or salad items like cucumber, lettuce and spinach leaves which can go off quickly, these clever medium-sized Stayfresh Longer Bags extend the life of almost any vegetables or fruit for several weeks, reducing waste and keeping more pennies in your pocket. Easy to use, just remove any packaging, pop your fresh produce in a Stayfresh Bag, seal as tightly as you can to remove any excess air, and keep in your fridge.

Love fresh, hate waste

Saving money and reducing waste, these bags help ensure fresh produce ends up on your plate, rather than in the bin. There’s nothing worse than getting to the end of the week and finding your recently fresh, vibrant and full-of-tasty-potential veg has been reduced to a brown, mushy mess, destined for the compost heap – what a waste, of both food and money! With Stayfresh Longer Bags, you can buy larger quantities of your favourite vegetables, confident that when you come to use them, they’ll still be as fresh as the day you bought them – even a week or two later.

Tried, tested and proven results

The length of time fruit and veg will last in a Stayfresh Longer Bag is dependent upon the type of produce you’re storing – but whatever you’re preserving, you can guarantee Stayfresh Bags will keep it fresher for far longer than when kept in its original packaging. There’s nothing better than a sweet and succulent punnet of strawberries, but they sometimes only last a day or two in the fridge, so you have to munch your way through them quickly. In controlled tests where strawberries picked at the same time were either stored in a Stayfresh Longer Bag or wrapped in ordinary polythene, those stored in a Stayfresh Longer Bag were found to last up to 5 days longer – ample time to enjoy your fruity sweet treats at your leisure! They also more than doubled the life of both broccoli and carrots too, with the Stayfresh-stored broccoli remaining perfectly edible for a whopping 46 days!

What’s the secret?

It may seem like magic, but Stayfresh’s genius is all thanks to the porous, food safe, natural Japanese stone powder suspended in the polythene film; the powder absorbs ageing ethylene gases that most fruit and veg release, and the bags let the contents breathe, creating an environment that helps produce stay fresher for far longer. The surface of the bags is also treated to prevent any build-up of moisture or bacteria.
