Craft Paper Pasting & Desiccant
For fumigation in container lorries (typically used for transporting goods), the application of craft paper pasting and desiccant (silica gel) placement is essential to control moisture, protect the goods from mold or damage, and ensure the integrity of the cargo during transport. Here’s how these processes work in the context of fumigation and storage in container lorries:
01. Craft Paper Pasting for Fumigation
Craft paper pasting is utilized in fumigation to protect the surfaces of goods or container walls, providing a layer of insulation and preventing direct exposure to harmful chemicals used in fumigation. It can also help contain any vapors during the fumigation process, ensuring the chemicals don't escape.
Surface Protection
Delicate or sensitive export items are wrapped securely to prevent direct exposure to heavy quarantine gas concentrations.
Moisture Absorption
Craft paper absorbs sweat and humidity building up on container walls, keeping the storage climate dry.
Gas Buffer
Reduces direct chemical vapor impacts on sensitive materials, ensuring uniform gas distribution.
02. Application Process in Containers
Our professional pasting team executes standard preparation before the fumigant is released:
- Container Cleaning: The interior walls and floors are swept clean and checked for grease/dust.
- Pasting & Sizing: Kraft paper sheets are custom cut and adhered to container ceilings, floors, and walls using clean adhesive methods.
- Hermetic Sealing: Doors and ventilation flaps are sealed off completely to maintain target concentration values.
- Degassing & Removal: After the exposure time ends, the container is aired out and the buffer paper is safely cleared.
03. Silica Gel Desiccant Placement
- Moisture Control: Rapid temperature shifts at sea cause "container rain" (condensation inside cargo containers). Silica gel bags absorb this moisture.
- Rust & Mold Prevention: Keeps high-humidity goods free of rust, mold, and packaging sogginess throughout global shipping routes.
