Moisture can create an environment that promotes the growth of bacteria and mold. Moisture can also cause rust and damage to electrical components. When shipping or storing products, moisture needs to be controlled to keep products unspoiled. Desiccants offer a very effective solution to control levels of moisture especially in containers and packaging.

Oxygen can promote the growth of bacteria and fungi that can cause food to spoil. Consuming food with bacteria can be harmful. Oxygen Absorbers can prevent the growth of pathogens and extend the shelf life of food. Oxygen Absorbers are non-toxic and inexpensive compared to the cost associated with throwing out contaminated food.

All shippping containers are susceptible to moisture. The moisture content of the air during load as well as the temperature during transit both impact the moisture level in the shipping container. Moisture trapped in the container condenses to the cooler areas and as the temperature rises, condensation accumulates on the walls and ceiling.
