Container Protection

Excessive humidity in containers can cause a variety of problems, such as:

• Corrosion: Metals and electronic components can corrode, leading to damage and potential failure of parts.
• Mold and Mildew: Organic materials such as textiles, paper, and wood can develop mold and mildew, resulting in spoilage and health risks.
• Packaging Degradation: Moisture can weaken packaging materials, compromising the protection they provide to the contents.
• Product Deterioration: Food, pharmaceuticals, and other sensitive products can deteriorate when exposed to high humidity, affecting their quality and safety.
• Caking of Powders: Powders can absorb moisture and become hard or clumpy, making them difficult to use or process.
• Label Damage: Moisture can cause labels to peel off or become illegible, leading to issues with product identification and traceability.
• Chemical Reactions: Certain chemicals can react with moisture, leading to degradation or hazardous conditions.
• Reduced Shelf Life: Many products, especially food items, can have their shelf life drastically reduced when exposed to moisture.

Absorbing moisture inside containers is especially important when transporting mineral water. Excess humidity can compromise the integrity of the packaging, cause label damage, and promote mold growth, thereby affecting the quality of the product upon arrival.

Levosil’s products effectively controls moisture during sea transport, ensuring your goods remain dry and protected from humidity-related damage throughout their journey.

Using desiccants during oversea container transport helps maintain the quality of transported goods and reduces losses due to damage, ensuring your products arrive in optimal condition.
Desiccant bags used inside containers during sea transport are also suitable for safeguarding food shipments, as they do not alter the sensory properties of transported foods and does note emit any gases. These desiccants function solely by removing moisture from the environment.
