When machinery and equipment are shipped overseas, they can spend weeks in containers and warehouses. Moisture and salty sea air are the main causes of corrosion on metal surfaces during this time.
What aluminum barrier foil does
Aluminum barrier foil forms a sealed layer around the product. When the air inside is removed through vacuum packaging, the foil keeps moisture and oxygen away from the metal surfaces until the package is opened.
- Moisture and corrosion protection during long-distance shipping
- Suitable for large machines wrapped on wooden pallets and crates
- Heat-sealable for a tight, closed package
Where it is used
Aluminum vacuum packaging is widely used for export machinery, metal parts and equipment that must arrive in the same condition it left the factory. It is often combined with wooden crates and support materials such as wire anchors and air containers.
