Simply unpack, hang on a lashing ring, and let it protect your cargo—no tools required.
Moisture Trap Quantity Guide
To get the best results, the number of traps you’ll need depends on container size, cargo type, and storage conditions. The numbers below are per side of the container:
- 10ft container: Use 2 moisture traps per side
- 20ft container: Use 3 moisture traps per side
- 40ft container: Use 6 moisture traps per side
These numbers are general guidelines for typical mixed cargo or storage conditions.
Why It Varies
Cargo Type:
- High-moisture cargo (timber, textiles, paper, leather) releases more moisture → you may need extra traps.
- Dry or sealed goods (electronics, metals, furniture) produce less moisture → you might use fewer traps.
