Vapor Barrier Bag

Picture
Corrosion, or rust, is the most common hazard of an international shipment.  Sea air, particularly in hot, humid climates, is incredibly corrosive so we have several packaging alternatives to minimize or eliminate corrosion during transit.

The Vapor Barrier Bag, pictured here, is the most effective method to prevent corrosion, as long as customs inspectors or lifting equipment do not compromise the bag..  This packaging solution encloses the machine and moisture absorbing materials inside an airtight, vacuum pack bag.  It is the most expensive and effective corrosion prevention packaging system.

 

Vapor Corrosion Inhibitor (VCI) Wrap

Picture
A Vapor Corrosion Inhibitor solution uses materials developed by Cortec Inc. to prevent or retard corrosion on all types of metal surfaces.  Cortec's products, which have a proven tracken record of over thirty years,  create a molecular barrier of protection on all types of metal surfaces .  The barrier can be delivered to the metal through the air, that is vapor, which is emitted from a plastice wrap, sponges, emitters or  sprays.  

This pictures shows a machine that has been wrapped in the blue Cortec VCI material to prevent rust while on its overseas journey.  This is a cost effetive solution for many corrosion problems.
