Container Desiccant Strip
Container desiccant:calcium chloride desiccant (most commonly used), silica gel desiccant, mineral desiccant, montmorillonite desiccant, biochemical desiccant.
Container desiccant is mainly used in marine containers to absorb water vapour in the process of marine transportation or storage. Due to the high humidity of the ocean and the big temperature difference between day and night, the water vapour in the container will condense into water droplets and thus form "container rain", using container desiccant can absorb water vapour and prevent the occurrence of container rain, and prevent the products from being wet and mouldy due to excessive moisture.
Packaging material: Tyvek paper & non-woven fabric.
The main uses of container desiccant bags: are transportation and storage of goods by sea, air, railway and highway, warehouses, storage cabinets, etc. They can also be directly applied to large machinery, electronics, communications and other equipment to prevent moisture and mould.
When it comes to shipping grains, sesame, oats, and wheat, it is important to ensure that these products remain dry to maintain their quality and prevent spoilage. Container desiccants can help absorb any excess moisture in the shipping container, reducing the risk of mold growth, caking, and deterioration of the products.Silica gel desiccants are often used in shipping containers for their moisture-absorbing properties.
Here are some key points to consider when using container desiccants for shipping grains, sesame, oats, and wheat:
1.Proper packaging: Ensure that the products are properly packaged in moisture-resistant materials such as plastic bags or sealed containers before placing them in the shipping container. This will provide an extra layer of protection against moisture.
2. Quantity of desiccants: The amount of desiccants required depends on various factors, including the volume of the shipment, duration of transit, and expected moisture levels. It is recommended to consult with the desiccant manufacturer or supplier to determine the appropriate quantity for your specific shipment.
3. Placement of desiccants: Distribute the desiccant packets evenly throughout the container, placing them near the goods to maximize moisture absorption. This will help create a drier environment within the container.
4. Monitoring and replacement: Regularly monitor the condition of the desiccants during transit. If the desiccants become saturated or ineffective, they should be replaced with fresh ones to maintain optimal moisture control.
By using container desiccants, you can help ensure that your grains, sesame, oats, and wheat arrive at their destination in good condition, free from moisture-related damage.

The Use and Precautions of Shipping Container Desiccant
-
Check the shipping container for damage, such as holes or cracks in the walls, top and bottom of the container. Desiccant can only work effectively in a closed environment, and container desiccant bags are no exception.
-
Check the moisture level of the wooden floor in the container. Do not use a container with a moisture value of more than 20% of the board, which will increase the working pressure of the container desiccant and increase the risk of moisture.
-
During shipping, please handle it with care to avoid scratches on the inner and outer packaging of the container desiccant.
-
The shipping container desiccant bags and the quantity placed need to provide professional dosage according to the customer's cargo packaging, packing conditions, voyage and other factors. For details, please contact us.
The desiccant used in container shipping needs large moisture absorption rate and generally has high requirements on moisture absorption, not every kind of desiccant is suitable. At present, the desiccants commonly used in container sea transport to prevent moisture have the following types.
-
Calcium chloride desiccant: The appearance is a white powder-like. The moisture absorption rate is up to 300% or more, and it is a commonly used desiccant for container desiccant.
-
Mineral desiccant: Mineral desiccant is composed of many kinds of minerals, with the appearance of small gray-white balls. The moisture absorption rate is more than 50%, which is twice as much as ordinary silica gel. It is green and healthy, and is a biodegradable desiccant.
-
Silica gel desiccant: The main component is silica, which is processed into granules or beads by mineral purification. It can reduce the relative humidity of the environment to about 40%. As desiccant, its microporous structure has good effect on water molecules.
For container desiccant, service is also very important. The conditions of sea transportation are unpredictable, and the needs of desiccant for different products are not exactly the same. A reliable company not only provides high quality desiccant products, but also can provide all-round services for cargo moisture prevention, including understanding the transported products, transport conditions, testing the effectiveness of desiccant, reasonable prices and programs, etc.
