Anyone who depends on metal parts for their manufacturing
operations, or even in everyday life, can understand the risks of corrosion.
Rust is a very common problem that can derail processing and lead to downtime.
For manufacturers and retailers receiving products from overseas, or who need
to warehouse products for any period of time, finding a way to reduce or
eliminate the threat of corrosion is a necessity.
Now that colder weather has arrived across much of the
United States, many people might not be thinking about the impacts of warm,
humid conditions on metal parts and components. But in a globalized economy,
you also have to think about conditions in the countries where materials are
being shipped to and from.
Vapor
Corrosion Inhibitor (VCI) packaging is ideal for high precision machine
metal applications, shipping and storage of ball bearings, and other vulnerable
metal equipment components. The bags and tubes are waterproof, so a little rain
or other humidity during transit and warehousing won’t impact the materials
inside. Whether they are being shipped across long distances in tropical
locales, or simply being stored for long periods of time until they can be
used, VCI packaging can protect small metal parts and larger equipment from
corrosion.
In addition, this packaging option is non-toxic and
environmentally friendly, making it the perfect solution for companies that are
committed to sustainability. It also leaves no powder or residue on the
products being protected, so they’ll be ready-to-use as needed.

components they can protect from corrosion, feel free to download a brochure. For
