Food loss in supply chains is a large, yet unnecessary problem. Part of the waste is due to moisture damage – but moisture damage can easily be avoided. Absortech offers effective moisture damage prevention solutions. A good process and minor investments in desiccants leads to cost reductions due to reduced scrapping, and contributes to a sustainable food industry.
Common products
Cereal grains, rice, seeds, spices, beans, oilseeds, animal feed, powders, nuts, fertilizers, etc.Common damages and problems
- Often farming and handling take place in high temperature and high relative humidity climate zones. Therefore, moisture may be brought into the packaging, and into the container.
- In addition, agricultural products are mostly hygroscopic, meaning they initially absorb moisture that later may be released during shipping.
Our solutions
- It is essential to make sure unnecessary moisture is not added during packing and loading. This is preferably achieved by reviewing packing/loading using our POMM process.
- Install the correct number of desiccants from the AbsorRange™ container desiccants family.
- AbsorRange are high-performing products with a low carbon footprint.
