At a Glance:

• Ideal for sweaters, pants, and other clothes
• Protect against water, dirt, insects, and more
• Waterproof and airtight
• Reduce stored items up to 66 percent when storage recommendations followed

Use with Your Household Vacuum

Store your clothing in three simple steps: Pack your items, zip up the bag, and remove air from the bag with your vacuum cleaner hose attachment. The bags are reusable so you can store and unpack your items again and again. Each seal lasts approximately 12 months, after which the bag can be resealed.

Protects against Damage

Dirt, mildew, insects, water, and odor are common enemies of stored items. Unlike box or bin storage, Ziploc brand Space Bag Flat Bags hinder the growth of mildew by creating airtight, waterproof containment through vacuum sealing.

What's in the Box:

• Ziploc brand Space Bag Flat Bags, 3 Large Bags

Vacuum-Sealed Protection

The flat bag's three design features work together to create the airtight seal and maintain the vacuum. A one-way air valve makes air removal easy and helps create an airtight seal and maintain the vacuum. Bi-axial layers of polyethylene and nylon provide strength, flexibility, and durability to hold the vacuum. The bag's vacuum seal closure system helps ensure an airtight seal.

Easily Remove Items

Removing items from the bags is simple. First, move the vacuum seal slider to the end of the zipper. Then, open the bag by gently pulling from the center of the zipper. If bag does not open with gentle pulling, additional force may be needed. Some fabrics, such as cotton, may require a touch-up with an iron after being removed from the bag.

Additional Styles and Sizes Available

Ziploc brand Space Bag is available in a variety of sizes and styles to suit your storage needs:

- Flat bags are available in medium, large, extra-large, jumbo, and travel sizes, and in convenient multi- and variety-packs. They are also available in heavy duty and dual-use varieties. Try the full line to store your soft household items, from sweaters to bedding.

- Cube bags feature an upright design for easy packing. Available in large or extra-large, cube bags are ideal for bulky items such as pillows and comforters.

- Underbed totes are ideal for storing a larger number of items under the bed.

- Hanging bags keep suits and jackets compact and protected in your closet.

Packing and Storage Tips

• Keep bags out of the reach of children.
• Do not use to store food, leather, or items made of fur.
• Do not fill beyond the marked fill line.
• Down-filled items should only be reduced to 50 percent, as further compression could damage the product.
• Restore filled items (comforters, pillows, and parkas) every six months while in storage. Fluff items by hand or tumble in a cool dryer for 20 minutes. Reseal if desired.
• Do not puncture bag or store near sharp objects or heat sources, or in temperatures above 130 degrees F or below 0 degrees F.

Roma communities in Perm Krai: historical and ethnical aspects

Two large groups of Roma are settled in the territory of Perm Krai, the Ruska Roma and Kalderari. Roma live both in cities and countryside. Roma living in the countryside keeps elements of traditional culture. In Perm Krai we can find different families of the Ruska [Russian] Roma: Gorbovichi, Nemzengery, Bashnengery, Polyaki, Sapuny, Gubany. In contrast to the Kalderari the community of Ruska Roma is based not only on family-territorial principle. Sometimes community is based on ethnic-territorial ground when the Ruska Roma living in an urban area despite family ties can be a part of the community. Traditional activity of Ruska Roma living in countryside is a seasonal grazing of livestock. One of the main sectors of activity is trading. Roma sell cars and jewelry. Kelderari live in compact groupings in Perm. They call themselves Moldavska Roma and consider themselves to be part of Ruvoni [wolf in Romani language] family. Traditional activity of Kelderari is metal work (especially tin-smith’s work) which impact also their modern business. The main work activity of men till now is working with metals such as base metal trading and metal items repair. Traditional women activity is fortune-telling. Bilingualism, traditional way of living, ethnic isolation, unique and particular material and spiritual culture are common for all of Roma. The main problems for Roma nowadays are safeguarding of ethnicity and as well as some educational and social issues.
