We offer a comprehensive range of VCI products, including VCI papers, VCI polyethylene sheeting, and VCI liquids as well as support products such as VCI emitters, foams and desiccants. VCI stands for "Volatile Corrosion Inhibitor”, this provides corrosion protection through VCI Molecules that evaporate from a carrier material (e.g. film, paper, foam etc). Your company may have raw materials such as steel, brass, copper, or aluminum that require careful storage and transportation, free from the threat of rusting. Ever wondered how rust forms? Rustic Metals need three crucial elements: moisture, air, and the metal itself. When these elements converge, they trigger an electrochemical reaction called corrosion. Rust manifests only if all three elements participate in the reaction; if one element is absent, rust will not occur. Extracting moisture from the formula that leads to rust formation. The metal product is wrapped in an impermeable compound foil / film / paper, and enou...

Using VCI Packaging

  Rust and corrosion can be expensive, challenging problems for businesses that ship metal parts or products. Once corrosion sets in, metal surfaces not only lose their shiny, pristine look, but they also lose their structural integrity and can weaken significantly. Why is Rust Prevention Packaging Important?   Rust prevention packaging is important for a couple of reasons. Simply put, it is a rust mitigator. It minimizes the chances of moisture or humidity entering the packaging and causing rust on your metal components or products.   In doing so, this packaging supports the product’s aesthetic look and quality. It enhances customer satisfaction and ensures corrosion does not lead to expensive repair requirements. You now know that metal products often require VCI packaging to remain rust-free. It is also the case that several industries frequently need VCI packaging and use them extensively. Here are three examples of industries that use this solution. Electronics...
