Every year, Australian businesses import and export millions of containers of goods to countries all over the world. During transit, shipping containers are exposed to extreme temperature changes and humidity fluctuations, which can lead to moisture contamination and damage to cargo. This phenomenon is known as “container rain” or “cargo sweat,” and it costs Australian companies millions of dollars every year. FROMM provides a range of desiccant bags for Australian exporters and importers to help avoid this risk.
At FROMM Packaging Australia, we understand the importance of protecting your cargo during transit. Our desiccant bags are made with high-quality materials and are designed to effectively absorb moisture from the air, keeping your cargo safe and dry.

Dry Cover & Dry Guard Desiccant Bags
Our new range of desiccant bags, Dry Cover and Dry Guard, are designed to maintain a controlled climate inside your shipping container. These bags have higher absorption capacities compared to MBD99 bags, making them suitable for transporting super sensitive cargo. Dry Cover and Dry Guard follow the theories of MBD99, but they can absorb up to 500% of their weight in moisture.
Dry Cover is a self-adhesive, flexible desiccant bag that is easy to install inside a shipping container. It is suitable for small and medium-sized containers and has a capacity of up to 2.5 litres. Dry Guard, on the other hand, is designed for larger containers and has a capacity of up to 5 litres. It can be installed using hooks and straps that are attached to the container's walls.
Both Dry Cover and Dry Guard desiccant bags are made of high-quality plastic material that ensures no leakage should saturation occur. They are also designed to be easily removed from the container after transit.
