The Soft Air function is a standard function on all Henkelman Boxer, Marlin, and Polar chamber vacuum sealers. This function is especially useful for delicate items like fruits and skewers. When you use the Soft Air function, the machine will gradually extract air during a process called the aeration phase. This seals your food item gently and without damage to the product or the vacuum seal bag.

The Soft Air function works by extracting air from the bag gradually during the aeration phase. This is done to avoid any damage to the food item or the vacuum seal bag.

The Soft Air function is especially useful for delicate items that may be damaged if vacuum-sealed too quickly. This function also helps to prevent the squashing of delicate food items.

The Boxer, Marlin, and Polar chamber vacuum sealers all offer the Soft Air function.
