Home / Container lining and desiccant
Why is it necessary to glue kraft paper in the container before packing commodities?
Import-export enterprises always face the risk of great loss due to moldy commodities in containers at the port of destination. High humidity is the main cause of this problem.
When containers are transported through regions with different climates leading to temperature changes such as from Vietnam - an area with a hot and humid climate to Europe - an area with a colder climate, the phenomenon of “container sweat” will appear. Water can be found inside the container, on the top of the container, or on the walls of the container. This amount of water will affect commodities (especially agricultural products) causing degradation, odor, mold, etc.
VFC's services include gluing kraft paper and placing desiccant for containers which help to limit the above-mentioned high humidity.
