Control Moisture with Micro-Pak® Dri Clay® Biodegradable Kraft Desiccants
Better for the Planet, These Earth Friendly All Natural, Plastic-Free & Biodegradable Desiccant Moisture Absorber Packets Out Perform Silica Gel & Calcium Chloride with Zero Microplastics
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Silica gel desiccants are widely used in the packaging of consumer goods to prevent moisture damage as they travel along supply chains. For many years consumers didn’t give a second thought to how they are made or what happens after they are disposed of. Not anymore. Fast forward to today and the desiccant packet you placed inside your package to protect the product has now become a spokesperson for your company and your brand.
Studies show that a growing segment of consumers are expecting sustainable products where ever possible, including desiccants - which is the very first thing a consumer often sees as they open their package. If your packet is not landfill friendly, it creates a negative emotion all the way to the trash can.
While they seem harmless in landfill, in reality industrial desiccants have a tremendous negative environmental impact. If you employ Tyvek® silica gel or calcium chloride desiccants into your packaging to protect moisture-sensitive products against deterioration, mold, mildew, rust or corrosion, then you're unfortunately creating pollution, litter, microplastics and consumers know this.
Conventional industrial desiccant absorbers are NOT biodegradable and are difficult to recycle. Millions of these moisture absorber packets are disposed into the trash yearly and end up in landfill or oceans where they will remain indefinitely resulting in toxic microplastics - a serious environmental problem that affects the health of humans, wildlife and ecosystems.
