Everything you need to know
Feel the satisfying click as the double weld seam locks in — and pull out a vacuum-sealed package of venison or salmon that stays pristine and shielded from freezer burn for months. The pressure gauge keeps a steady watch so every seal is spot-on. Owners say it best: "This vacuum packer is doing exactly what it is designed for with great efficiency and ease."
For biltong-makers, butchers, and small-batch food businesses, the V.300 Premium X turns your products into shelf-ready, customer-pulling premium. Vacuum packs come out crystal-clear, airtight, and unmistakably professional — the kind that converts curiosity into sales. As one owner puts it: "I can feel the difference to any other vacuum sealer — in weight, sound and user-friendliness."
The turbo pump pulls a strong −0.94 bar vacuum with a smooth, quiet rhythm. Automatic mode with adjustable controls makes daily use effortless, whether you're prepping sous-vide, dry-aged cuts, or batch-sealing the season's catch. The robust build is exactly what you'd expect from a tool that lasts.
This is a professional machine rated for 1,000 seals and backed by a lifetime pump warranty. Long-time owners come back to Lava year after year — "Above expectation. Exactly what I was looking for."
With the Lava V.300 Premium X, you're not just sealing food. You're safeguarding every venison haunch, every fish fillet, and every family feast — one flawless pack at a time.

One-button simplicity
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
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
Every Lava vacuum sealer ships with a hose attachment — extend the same machine to vacuum-seal Lava containers, glass jars, wine bottles and even pots. One device, dozens of use cases.

From kitchen to camp
Game meat. Biltong. Fish. Sous-vide cuts. Marinades. Cheese. Coffee beans. Dry goods. Documents. Camera lenses. Ammunition. Anything that benefits from being air-free and moisture-free.
South African home cooks, hunters, anglers, butchers, and food producers have used Lava machines daily since 2007 across every imaginable application.
Made in Germany since 1982
Every Lava is engineered, machined and assembled in Bad Saulgau, Baden-Württemberg by the Landig family. The same factory, the same tolerances, the same obsession with build quality for over four decades.
“I've used my Lava daily in the butchery for nine years. Not one repair, not one missed seal. It just works.”
