What is Moisture Damage?
Moisture damage occurs when excess humidity or condensation affects products during storage or transportation. It can lead to corrosion, mold growth, product deterioration, and loss of quality.
Industries such as electronics, pharmaceuticals, textiles, and food products are especially vulnerable to moisture-related problems.
Effects of Moisture Damage
Corrosion
Moisture causes rust and corrosion on metal products.
Mold Growth
Excess humidity leads to fungus and mold formation.
Product Damage
Moisture affects packaging and reduces product life.
Moisture in Shipping Containers
Sea containers often experience temperature fluctuations during transport. This causes condensation inside the container, commonly known as container rain.
Water droplets may drip onto cargo or form inside packaging, resulting in cargo sweat and product damage.
