The balance point for medium-length voyages: steady absorption over the whole transit without over-sizing the cost per container.
Air inside a container heats by day and cools at night. The moisture it carries condenses on the steel roof and walls and drips back onto the cargo — container rain. A calcium chloride desiccant captures that water vapour before it condenses and locks it into a gel that cannot run back out.
An adhesive strip for container walls and pallet faces. It is the usual choice for routes of two to four weeks, where a larger unit would be over-specified and a smaller one would saturate before arrival.
