Freezing/Storing
food and Making ice
The following points should
be taken into account when
buying frozen foods
• Only buy products if the packaging is
in perfect condition.
• Do not buy products that have passed
their use-by date.
• Check the freezers at the
establishment where you buy the
products. The unit must have a
thermometer that is easily visible. The
temperature must be lower than -18ºC.
• Shop for your frozen products towards
the end of your shopping. Wrap them
in several layers of newspaper or put
them into an isothermal or insulating
bag to take them home in and make
the journey as quickly as possible.
Once home, put the products into the
freezer without delay.
Advice on wrapping the
products or putting them
into containers
To home-freeze food, always buy top-
quality fresh products that are in perfect
condition. Wrap or pack the food into
airtight containers to prevent it from
drying out or losing its flavour.
Suitable containers and materials:
Plastic sheets, polyethylene film,
aluminium foil and containers made of
paraffin cardboard, aluminium or plastic
are suitable for freezing. These products
are available at specialist shops.

Materials that are not suitable for
home-freezing:
Wrapping paper, vegetable-sized paper,
cellophane, bin bags or used plastic
shopping bags. Wrap the food well and
extract as much of the air as possible
from inside the package and then seal.
Suitable materials for sealing:
Strong elastic bands, plastic clips, string,
adhesive tape that is resistant to cold
temperatures, humidity, etc. Bags and
polyethylene film can be sealed with a
special appliance for plastic materials.
Before putting the food into the freezer
compartment, mark the packs clearly
with the contents and add the date.

capacity according to current
