Why do New York and New Jersey containers need desiccants?

Seasonal temperature swings, port dwell and Atlantic routes can create condensation inside containers and damage cartons, food, pharma packs, electronics and machinery.

Which desiccant suits pharma cargo through NY/NJ?

Silica gel or molecular sieve protects the product pack, while calcium chloride units protect the outer container and cartons.
