How to Do Rust-Proof Packaging for Stainless Steel Ocean Shipping
Practical key points on VCI, desiccants, wooden crates, and container selection.
Ocean shipping involves high humidity and high salt, and stainless steel can also corrode. Packaging recommendations:
- Inner layer: VCI anti-rust film or anti-rust paper, wrapping steel coils/sheets.
- Desiccant: Calculate the amount based on volume and voyage length; avoid direct contact with the plate surface.
- Outer layer: Wooden crate or pallet + stretch wrap; raise the bottom to prevent water accumulation.
- Markings: Indicate moisture-proof, this side up, and keep away from rain.
- Container: Check whether the container body leaks; lay a moisture-proof film if necessary.
Open the package and ventilate promptly after arrival to avoid long-term retention of condensation water.
