Container Desiccant 500 g with Hook
Container Desiccant 500 g with Hook
Hung from the lashing rings, it starts capturing moisture from the first hour. The standard unit for dry cargo.
What it does
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.
Where it goes
Hooked onto the lashing rings along the container walls, above the cargo line. Hanging keeps the unit in the warmest, most humid air in the box — where condensation actually forms — and away from the cargo itself.
Key features

- Certified absorption of 307% at 60 °C and 90% RH — more than three times its own weight in water
