About the LAVA V.100 Premium X Vacuum Sealer
Built for the Hunt and the Haul
Feel the satisfying click as the double seal locks in — and pull out an airtight pack that stays fresh for months. Hunters and anglers know the difference: a proper vacuum that protects prized game meat from leaks and spoilage, every single time.
Professional-Grade Power
The V.100 Premium X delivers up to −0.94 bar vacuum through a heavy-duty pump backed by a lifetime warranty. It handles up to 1,000 seals without breaking stride — the kind of workhorse small businesses and serious home kitchens rely on.
Made for Your Craft
Whether you're portioning wild game, prepping for sous-vide, or packaging fillets for the freezer, the bar display and adjustable controls put you fully in command. The build feels solid in your hands — exactly what a tool you'll use for years should feel like.
A Purchase That Lasts
Owners say it best: "Top quality. You can tell the difference from cheaper products." Many return to Lava after a decade with their previous model — that's the kind of trust this machine earns through every seal.
With the Lava V.100 Premium X, you're not just sealing food. You're protecting the stories behind every catch, every harvest, and every meal.

Capabilities
LAVA V.100 Premium X Functions & Features
Manual vacuuming & sealing
Full control over the vacuum level — release the suction the moment your bag feels right. Ideal for delicate items like fresh game cuts, soft cheeses, or marinated meat where you don't want to crush the contents.
500 watt peak power · 35 L/min pump
A genuine industrial-grade pump pulls a real -0.94 bar vacuum. That's hospital-grade suction in a counter-top unit — not the 0.7-0.8 bar most cheaper machines deliver.
Double sealing weld (2× ~4 mm)
Two parallel 4 mm seal lines, not one. Twice the security against leaks during freezer storage, sous-vide cooking, or long-haul transport. This is the difference between a bag that holds for years and one that fails after a month.
View compatible bagsUp to 1000 sequential operations
Run a full hunting weekend's worth of game-meat portioning without the machine overheating. Most domestic units force-cool after 20-30 seals. The V.100 Premium X is engineered for serious back-to-back use.
34 cm seal bar — widest in its class
Seal bags and rolls up to 34 cm wide. Big enough for whole fillets, rib racks, or family-size portions without folding or compromise.
View compatible rollsBar-graph vacuum display
Visual confirmation of exactly how much vacuum has been drawn. No guesswork — you see the suction build in real time and stop it precisely where you want it.
Liquid drip tray (removable)
Catches marinade, blood, or brine before it reaches the pump. Pulls out for easy rinsing — keeps the machine clinically clean over years of use.
Container & jar attachment compatible
Use the dedicated hose attachment to vacuum-seal Lava containers, glass jars, and wine bottles. Same machine, dozens more use cases.
Browse containers & jarsStrong ABS housing
Reinforced impact-resistant ABS plastic — the same grade used in industrial kitchen equipment. Designed to take knocks in a working butchery or game-room without cracking.
Single-button operation
One-touch automatic mode for everyday use. Drop the bag in, push down, walk away. The machine handles vacuum + seal + release with no input.
Made in Germany since 1982
Engineered, machined and assembled by Landig + Lava GmbH in Bad Saulgau, Baden-Württemberg. Same factory that has shipped over 350,000 units worldwide. Not a rebranded import.

One-button simplicity
LAVA V.100 Premium X: One-Button Vacuum Welding
Drop the bag in. Push down. Walk away. The Lava handles vacuum, seal, and release as one fluid motion — no menus, no settings, no fuss.
For everything else — delicate foods, marinades, partial vacuums — the manual mode gives you complete control over the suction level. Both worlds, one machine.
Twice the seal, twice the security
Double Seal Technology on the LAVA V.100 Premium X
Two parallel weld lines instead of one. If the first seal ever fails — under freezer pressure, sous-vide heat, or transport — the second seal holds.
This is the difference between a bag that holds for years and one that vents after a month. It's why professional butcheries and hunters trust Lava with their entire season's harvest.
Beyond bags
