Prevent Moisture Absorption, Fungal Growth & Hardening – Naturally

Jaggery (also known as gur) is a natural, unrefined sweetener derived from sugarcane or palm. Available in cube, powder, or block form, jaggery is extremely prone to moisture absorption and oxidation due to its hygroscopic nature (it attracts water from the air). Over time, this can lead to:

Hardening or melting of cubes

Fungal or mold growth

Fermentation and sour smell

Loss of color, taste, and aroma

Incorporating Oxygen Absorbers into jaggery packaging ensures extended shelf life, improved product stability, and safer storage-especially in humid climates like India.

Benefits of Oxygen Absorbers for Jaggery

• Prevents Mold Formation: Removes oxygen that fungi and microbes need to grow
• Maintains Texture: Keeps jaggery cubes from melting or hardening due to moisture
• Preserves Natural Aroma & Taste: Locks in authentic flavor without artificial preservatives
• Improves Shelf Stability: Ideal for long-distance shipping and export markets
• Reduces Spoilage & Returns: Increases customer satisfaction with fresh, consistent quality

Ideal Packaging with Oxygen Absorbers

• Heat-sealed laminated pouches (PET/PE or PET/ALU)
• Ziplock stand-up pouches with secondary sealing
• Vacuum-sealed bags with nitrogen flushing
• Plastic jars or containers with sealed liners
• For best results, oxygen absorbers should be used in airtight packaging and selected based on the volume of air inside.
