Shipping Container Desiccant

Keep your stored items dry, safe, and protected with Dry Pole Desiccants for Storage.
Moisture is one of the biggest threats to goods stored in shipping containers—especially in coastal or humid areas. When a container is sealed, daily temperature swings can cause internal condensation, also known as “container rain.” This leads to mold, mildew, corrosion, rust, and irreversible damage to your belongings.

Our Dry Pole Desiccants for Storage are the trusted solution for moisture control in shipping containers. Each pole contains high-performance silica gel desiccant, which actively absorbs airborne moisture before it can condense inside the container. This helps protect your contents during long-term storage, short-term holding, or even seasonal transitions.

Designed to fit easily into container lashing points or wall corrugations, these leak-proof, desiccant poles hang vertically—keeping floors and storage shelves free and clear. Silica gel is widely known for its ability to absorb large amounts of moisture relative to its size, making it ideal for static storage applications.

Perfect for:

• Construction site storage – power tools, wiring, consumables

• Farms and rural use – protecting feed, seed, equipment, and more

• Household container storage – furniture, documents, fabrics, keepsakes

• Business stock & archive – boxes, products, records, paper goods

• Workshops and studios – where moisture-sensitive gear needs to stay dry
