Why does Santos export cargo need desiccants?

Humid port dwell, Atlantic routes and cargo moisture can create condensation, caking, carton weakness, label failure, mould and corrosion.

Which desiccant suits food and agro cargo from Brazil?

Food-aware sachets protect the product pack, while BE DRY calcium chloride units manage humidity inside the shipping container.

Desiccants for Santos & Sao Paulo Cargo

Santos links Sao Paulo industry and Brazilian exports to global routes. Coffee, sugar, soy, food ingredients, chemicals, pharma, machinery and cartonised cargo face humid Atlantic port dwell, route temperature swings and container rain risk. BENZ manufactures BE DRY container desiccants, BE DRY ULTRA, C DRY activated clay, silica gel and molecular sieve for Brazilian export and import cargo.
