vacuum sealing
Removing air completely
Vacuum sealing is a method of packaging that removes air before sealing a container or bag, typically to preserve food by slowing spoilage and preventing freezer burn: We vacuum-sealed the steaks before freezing them.
The technique also compresses soft items like clothing for compact storage.
