Desiccant Canisters
Product description
Desiccant Canisters are small, high-density polyethylene (HDPE) containers filled with silica gel, molecular sieves, carbon, and their combinations. These canisters are constructed from food-grade materials, including desiccants, print ink, labels, and adhesives, ensuring compliance with DMF grade and 21 CFR and EU regulations.
The canisters can adsorb high amounts of The type and capacity of canisters required depend on the nature of the product and its use. High automation is possible for inserting canisters into bottles, making them a convenient solution for various industries.
The desiccant canisters can adsorb high amounts of moisture, ensuring the long-term preservation of products. They are designed to maintain the ideal humidity levels within the packaging, preventing moisture-related damage and extending the shelf life of sensitive items such as pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals, and food products.
Our desiccant canisters are non-toxic and follow FDA standards, making them suitable for close contact with drugs and foods. They are widely used in the pharmaceutical industry for specialized packaging and are available in a range of sizes for moisture solutions.


Application
- Pharmaceutical and nutraceutical industry for herbal medicines, diagnostic, dental, veterinary, nutritional, pharmaceutical tablets & capsules in bottles
- Preventing moisture, rust, mold, mildew and other deterioration occurring by moisture
- High-speed moisture absorption capacity for involuntary, inelastic design
- Pharmaceutical canisters increase shelf-life of items and keep products fresh for a long time
- Maintaining dry packaging environment
