That goods transported by sea container are exposed to risks such as temperature and moisture is well known. That so many goods are lost as a result of this may not be. The use of desiccants, which have been specially developed for use in a container, reduces the risk of cargo damage. They prevent corrosion of metals, mold on food products, clumping of powdered products and, for example, damp cardboard boxes. The desiccants absorb the moisture in the container, so condensation does not have a chance. There are several desiccants available, a solution for every transport.

Desiccants for in the box are often used to prevent moisture damage when packing smaller products such as shoes and clothing, but also car parts, electronics and pharmaceutical goods. These products, when exposed to moisture, are affected by mold and rust, among other things. As a result, the cargo is rejected and can no longer be used. The desiccant bags are made of a mixture of calcium chloride and starch/. The absorbed moisture forms into a gel and prevents leakage.
