Wrapping food

Pack the food in suitably sized portions for your household.

Vegetable and fruit portions should be no heavier than 1 kg, while meat portions can be up to 2. kg.

Smaller portions freeze thoroughly more quickly and the quality is therefore maintained when

defrosting and preparing the food.

It is important to seal food in airtight bags or containers before freezing to prevent it from losing

flavour or dehydrating.

Wrap the food, press out any air and seal it airtight.

Please observe maximum storage period and expiry date of frozen goods.
Suitable wrapping materials: Plastic bags, cling film, aluminium foil and freezer containers.
Unsuitable wrapping materials:

Wrapping paper, greaseproof paper, cellophane, bin bags or used carrier bags.
Suitable sealing materials:

Rubber bands, plastic clips, string, freezer tape or similar.

Plastic film and bags may be heat-sealed using a special sealing iron or press.
Before placing a package in the freezer, it should be clearly labelled with the contents and

date of freezing.
