The company

30 years protecting cargo that travels the world

For three decades we represented leading cargo protection brands. Everything we learned went into SECAL: our own enhanced products, plus the tools to protect every shipment by calculation, not by guesswork.

Our story

From representing the best brands to creating our own

SECAL did not start as a brand. It started at the port, the plant and the warehouse, solving real problems of moisture, impact and temperature in export containers.

We did not want a product similar to the ones we represented. We wanted a better one, with added value.
  1. The beginning

    Alongside the exporter

    We began by protecting the cargo of exporters shipping coffee, cocoa, grains, fruit and industrial goods to every continent.

  2. Representation

    Partners of leading international brands

    We represented major brands in the industry. We studied how each product performed by cargo, route and season, and what was still left unsolved.

  3. SECAL is born

    Our own brand, enhanced

    With that knowledge we developed our own line: higher-performing, more sustainable products, backed by technical support that never came with the brands we represented.

  4. Today

    No more guesswork

    We added technical calculators with costs, an app that works offline and usage guides by product and by crop, so every shipment carries exactly the protection it needs.

Manufacturing

Produced with international manufacturing partners, to SECAL specifications

We choose plants experienced in desiccants and securing materials, and we ask more of them: formulas and formats tuned to what we learned over 30 years of real shipments.

  • Technical specifications defined by SECAL for every product
  • Manufacturer certificate of analysis backing performance
  • Formats designed for containers, packaging and reefers

Added value

We do not sell a similar product. We sell a better one.

Every SECAL line comes with more than the product: the technical know-how to use it well.

Proven performance

Our container desiccant absorbs more than three times its weight in water — certified 307% at 60 °C and 90% RH.

Exact calculation, with cost

Five calculators tell you how much product your cargo needs and what it costs, by container, route and type of goods.

More sustainable

The right dose avoids overuse: fewer units, less waste and lower cost on every shipment.

Guides and technical support

Step-by-step usage guides by product and by crop, and a specialist who supports you before and after shipment.
