Why prevention matters Moisture is an invisible threat with visible consequences Moisture damage doesn’t just happen in transit — it often starts before the container is even sealed. Packaging, product moisture, climate conditions, and loading processes all play a role. We help you understand these risks and fix them before they cause damage. Up to 10% of all container shipments suffer moisture-related damage Resulting in: corrosion, caking, collapsed packaging, mold Leading to: returns, rework, lost value, and emissions Peace of Moisture Mind® We’ve spent decades testing, improving, and validating our process across industries and climates. The result is a simple but powerful method: Peace of Moisture Mind® (POMM). The 4-Step Process: 1. Audit Identify your moisture exposure across packaging, goods, and environment. 2. DIMENSION Calculate the right amount and type of desiccant using data from AbsorTest. 3. VALIDATE Test and verify performance using loggers, samples, and reports. 4. IMPLEMENT Train teams and apply protection consistently to secure every shipment. Efficient, tested protection More than a desiccant — the right solution We don’t guess. Based on your conditions, we recommend field-tested, calcium chloride-based desiccants with high absorption and low material use — delivering effective protection with minimal waste.
