Info
Changes in temperature and humidity can lead to condensation inside shipping containers, which can lead to moisture build-up inside the container. This could be a concern for the materials kept inside the container because too much moisture could harm the products. The following techniques can be used to eliminate condensation in a shipping container:
Ventilation and Insulation
Ventilation: Ensure adequate ventilation to promote air flow inside the container. Installing vents or adding openings can help reduce the build-up of moisture inside the container. Our containers are well vented.
Insulation: Installing insulation can help regulate the temperature inside the container, reducing the likelihood of condensation forming. It can also help prevent heat loss, reducing the risk of corrosion caused by moisture build-up. Our containers are well insulated.
Dehumidifiers and Desiccants
Dehumidifiers: Using a dehumidifier is an effective way to control the humidity levels inside the container, especially in humid or wet environments. A dehumidifier absorbs excess moisture in the air, reducing the likelihood of condensation forming.
Desiccants: Placing desiccants, such as silica gel packets, inside the container can Use a moisture barrier: A moisture barrier is a layer of material that prevents moisture from entering the container. This can be done by lining the walls and ceiling of the container with plastic sheeting or using a specialized moisture barrier product.
Conclusion
It’s important to note that some of these methods may be more effective than others depending on the specific situation and the type of cargo being stored in the container. It’s recommended to consult with a professional if you’re unsure which method is best for your needs. Help absorb excess moisture and reduce the build-up of condensation.
