The Absorbag is a container desiccant used to protect cargo during shipping and storage from damages caused by humidity problems.

How the Absorbag works

The Absorbag is activated once it is removed from its transparent protective PE bag. The Absorbag will then immediately start to absorb moisture from the surrounding air. The upper portion of the Absorbag contains the calcium chloride (1).As the desiccant material absorbs moisture it will gradually dissolves into brine. This will be captured in the lower blue collector (2). Once captured, the moisture will not re-evaporate into the air.

Performance

The absorption characteristics of calcium chloride provide Absorpole with a superior absorption capacity, even at low humidity levels, and the ability to effectively protect cargo throughout the entire voyage.Typical applications
