MOISTURE DAMAGE

Sea Containers are an economical and safe way of shipping almost any kind of cargo. But putting a cargo into a closed strong box also entails a constant risk of moisture damage for every kind of cargo on every voyage.

IS YOUR CARGO DRY?
Every year thousands of containerised cargoes suffer moisture damage and condensation damage. Metal parts arrive corroded, cardboard boxes moldy and wet and food commodities are found to be unfit for consumption. Millions of dollars are spent on protective packaging, coatings and silica gels that often do not solve the problem.

The solution is to create a dry environment within the shipping container. Absorpole is based on the proven ability of Calcium Chloride to aggressively remove moisture from the air. The resulting brine is collected in a solid plastic container that is installed in the container corrugation.

Absorpole is made only from PE/PP plastics and salt, which are non-toxic and recyclable.

MOISTURE CONTROL IN SHIPPING CONTAINERS

Whoever has opened a shipping container only to find his valuable cargo rusted, moldy and dripping with water can readily appreciate the dangers of moisture in container transports. Most cases of moisture damage are far less severe –peeling labels, spotted surfaces or soggy packaging-, but are nonetheless unacceptable.

The root cause of moisture damage in container transport is the simple fact that warm air can hold more moisture than cold air. Take the dewy grass in the morning after a cool summer night as an example. Moisture gets into the air in the container from the outside or by evaporation from the cargo. When the temperature in the container changes or there is a difference in temperature between different parts of the cargo, damaging moisture conditions arise.

MOISTURE PROCESSES IN THE CONTAINER

A container is a closed system with it’s own ”weather”inside. It differs from the
warehouse in that the variation in temperature is much greater. It is not unusual to see containers wherein temperatures range from freezing to 60-70C during the course of a single voyage.

ABSORPOLE

Absorpole is based on the proven ability of calcium chloride to aggressively remove moisture from the air.

Absorpole is easy to use and is designed to hang within a corrugation recess of the container side panel. Minimal space is occupied and accidental damage from forklifts during stuffing and un-stuffing is avoided.

PROTECTS YOUR CARGO
Absortech container desiccants protect cargo and cargo packaging from moisture damage during sea transportation. Absortop is the latest desiccant in the Absortech product family and is uniquely designed for bulk cargo transportations.

ABSORTOP
Absortop is based on the proven ability of Calcium Chloride to aggressively remove
moisture from the air. Absortop is specifically designed for use in bulk containers and fully loaded containers.

Absortop is mounted at the container ceiling; it is tightly secured, robust and will stay in place even when tilt stuffing and –unstuffing is employed. The absorbed water cannot reevaporate into the container since it is transferred and stored in the
lower compartment of the absorber.
