Description This efficient desiccant begins working by absorbing airborne moisture left inside the bag when you've finished vacuum packaging, capturing moisture that manages to pass through the bag material. Secured in a strong pouch of either clean room grade, sulphur-free, non-woven Tyvek(R) or economical kraft paper, desiccant helps keep your devices dry, even through unexpected shipping delays or longer than anticipated storage time.
