Published in Using Stasher bags 2 mins read

Opening a Stasher bag involves a simple, gentle technique to release its airtight seal.

The most effective way to open your Stasher bag is by using the method described in the manufacturer's recommendations:

Step-by-Step Guide to Opening Your Stasher Bag

Opening your reusable silicone Stasher bag is straightforward when you know the technique. The unique Pinch-Loc™ seal creates a secure closure, and releasing it requires a specific motion.

The Opening Method:

  1. Locate the Seal: Identify the colorful, ridged seal at the top of the bag.
  2. Position Your Thumbs: Hold the bag stable with one hand. Place your thumbs flat over each side of the seal near one end.
  3. Roll and Release: Gently hold your thumbs flat over each side of the seal and gently roll them down and away from each other. This action separates the two sides of the seal incrementally.
  4. Work Your Way Across: Continue this rolling motion with your thumbs along the entire length of the seal until the bag is fully open.

Important Tip for Longevity

To ensure your Stasher bags last a long time and maintain their seal integrity, always be mindful of how you open them. As noted in tips for making your Stasher bags last:

  • Don't force the opening to open farther than it does naturally. Forcing the seal open aggressively or pulling excessively hard can stretch or damage the silicone, compromising its ability to seal effectively in the future. Always rely on the gentle thumb-rolling technique.

By using this method, you can easily access the contents of your bag while preserving its functionality and lifespan.
