Volatile Corrosion Inhibitor grip seal bags

Now there is no need to protect your goods with oil, grease or paint before shipping or storage, especially if shipping abroad where your product will be a susceptible to many temperature changes, contaminated air, sea salt and moisture.

Volatile (or Vapour) Corrosion Inhibitor is an additive added to the polyethylene of these distinctive blue grip seal bags and once exposed to air, vaporizes and deposits itself as a thin layer on metal surfaces preventing humidity from reaching the item and causing it to corrode. On opening the bag the VCI protective layer evaporates leaving the product dry, clean and corrosion free and ready to use and does not have any effect on plastic or rubber parts. In closed VCI gusset bags this VCI protection is guaranteed for 24 months.
