  • Desi-Pak® - Activated clay desiccant. Free flowing granular material with high moisture adsorbing ability from 20 to 80% relative humidity under normal packaging and storage conditions.
  • Sorb-It® - Silica gel is made from amorphous silicate, a hard, translucent material with
    an extremely high capacity for moisture at humidity levels above 40% and temperatures below 75°F.
  • Getter Pak® - Activated Carbon used in controling objectionable odors and gases through the process of adsorption.
  • 2-in-1 Pak® - available with Silica gel or Activated Clay, combined with activated carbon to simultaneously control moisture, gas and odor.
  • Tri-Sorb® - Molecular Sieve is a very agressive desiccant that can be used to quickly adsorb moisture and odor.
