The BSC PREFERRED DES118 is an activated clay desiccant packet designed to protect moisture-sensitive products during storage and transport. Each bag contains a free-flowing granular activated clay filling with strong moisture adsorption capability across a relative humidity range of 20 to 80 percent. The packets are constructed for durability while allowing high adsorption rates, making them a reliable choice for packaging lines and fulfillment operations. This case contains 1200 individual desiccant packets, each rated to protect 0.14 cubic feet of enclosed space. The DES118 meets FDA specifications for direct contact with food and drugs, broadening its suitability across regulated industries.
These desiccant packets are suited for use across a wide range of industries and applications where moisture control is critical. Typical applications include packaging of pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals, diagnostics, electronics, and food products. They are appropriate for use in sealed packaging, shipping containers, and storage enclosures where humidity buildup can compromise product integrity. Packaging technicians, warehouse operations staff, and quality control teams commonly deploy these packets as part of moisture management protocols in both commercial and industrial settings.
Designed as a direct equivalent to part number S-5163. Suitable for use in standard desiccant packaging applications across pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals, diagnostics, electronics, and food packaging where activated clay desiccants are specified.
Place desiccant packets inside sealed packaging or shipping containers prior to sealing to ensure effective moisture control. Keep packets in their original sealed case until ready for use to prevent premature adsorption. Do not expose packets to open air for extended periods before deployment. Follow applicable FDA guidelines and internal packaging SOPs when using desiccants in direct contact with food or drug products.
