Buy silica gel sachets in packs of 100, with eight sizes from 1g to 500g covering everything from individual product boxes to export crates. Part of our silica gel range, these are the workhorse desiccant for cameras, optical equipment, electronic components, pharmaceutical packaging, leather goods, and footwear.
Each sachet absorbs 22-24% of its own weight in moisture and remains dry and free-flowing when saturated, so there is no risk of leakage onto goods even at full capacity. The sachets function reliably in high humidity and at temperatures up to 105°C, and suit long-distance transport by land, sea, and air.
Dose at 5g of silica gel per cubic foot of sealed air space, stepping up for unsealed cartons, longer transits, and humid destinations. Small sachets suit individual component boxes; the larger sizes handle cartons and crates. For the full calculation, see our silica gel sizing guide. For palletised export loads and shipping containers, run a calcium chloride container desiccant at freight level and keep sachets at carton level.
