How Container Rain Forms and How BEDRY™ Stops It
A sealed shipping container loaded with hygroscopic materials contains moisture-laden air at packing time. During transit, daytime solar loading evaporates moisture from packing materials. At night or in cooler currents, container walls cool below the dew point. Condensation forms on the ceiling and walls and rains down onto the cargo.
BEDRY™ pulls water vapour continuously from the container air before humidity reaches the dew point, preventing condensation from forming on container surfaces entirely.
Optimal placement: pole-mount units at both ends and the midpoint of the container, attached to ceiling anchor points. Do not place on the container floor. Install immediately before sealing, not more than 30 minutes before loading.
