Description
Container Dry Pole Desiccant for Sea Freight
Quick facts
- Product: Hanging container dry pole (strip) for sea freight and warehouse humidity control — helps manage container rain risk around cartons. Not a climate-controlled container substitute; outcomes vary by lane, stuffing, quantity, and product integrity.
- Key specs: 81 × 15.5 × 3 cm (31.89″ × 6.10″ × 1.18″) · strip weight 1.0–1.5 kg (customizable within program rules) · pack 10 or 14 strips/ctn · each strip sealed in a plastic bag · model family example CCD-BA (confirm exact SKU on quotation).
- Two sorbent versions: Calcium chloride (CaCl₂) — most buyers’ first choice; category absorption often discussed around ~300% of dry weight. SAP (super absorbent polymer / nano) — cost-effective alternative; category absorption often discussed around ~200%. Same hang format. Figures are industry / lab-style references (e.g. tests at high RH) — not a Simeda guarantee. Request the datasheet for the quoted SKU.
- Buying basics: Typical discussion MOQ from 100 packs (custom print usually higher). Vacuum-packed shelf life often cited around 2 years. Carton logistics example ~85 × 28 × 24 cm / ~32 kg gross (confirm on quote). Relevant SKUs may support REACH / RoHS / MSDS / SGS document packs — request PDFs.
- Contact: Evaluation sample 8 dry poles (freight paid by the buyer; work email required). sales@simedamoldproof.com · WhatsApp +86-1395 9989 108. Simeda Biotechnology Co., Ltd.

| Documents (on request) | Datasheet, MSDS, REACH / RoHS / SGS-oriented files as available for the SKU |
| Moisture uptake / capacity | Request datasheet for the quoted SKU — do not treat marketing % as a lane guarantee |
CaCl₂ vs SAP — choose by priority
Category / lab-style absorption references are commonly discussed around ~300% (CaCl₂) and ~200% (SAP) of dry weight under high-humidity test conditions (e.g. 30°C, 90% RH in industry charts). These are illustrative comparisons across desiccant families — not a Simeda performance guarantee for your container. Always confirm the datasheet for the SKU you buy.
| Option | Best for | Category absorption (reference) | Buyer note |
|---|---|---|---|
| Calcium chloride (CaCl₂) | Maximum category absorption / familiar buyer preference | Often discussed around ~300% | Most buyers choose this first |
| SAP (super absorbent polymer / nano) | Budget-sensitive programs needing the same hang format | Often discussed around ~200% | Cost-effective alternative — request a side-by-side quote |
Quantity starting points (discussion only)
Industry-style starting counts often quoted for ~1.0–1.5 kg-class hanging units (e.g. about 1 unit per ~8 m³ → roughly 4 for 20′ GP, 8 for 40′ GP, 10 for 40HQ). Treat as a discussion start only — not a Simeda guarantee against container rain or claims.
For risk-tier bands and fuller quantity thinking, see our container desiccant buyer guide.
| Container | Common discussion start |
|---|---|
| 20′ GP | About 4 hanging units |
| 40′ GP | About 8 hanging units |
| 40HQ | About 10 hanging units |
How to hang container dry poles (4 steps)
- Select the SKU — Choose hanging dry-pole format. Pick CaCl₂ (most buyers’ first choice) or SAP (cost-effective alternative). Confirm strip weight class (1.0–1.5 kg) and packing (10 or 14 / ctn). Request the datasheet and compliance PDFs for the quoted SKU.
- Set a trial quantity — Use the on-page starting counts as a discussion point, then ask Simeda for a concrete recommendation. For risk-tier thinking, see the container desiccant guide.
- Stuff with placement discipline — Hang during stuffing, before doors close. Prefer upper wall / ceiling-adjacent zones; distribute along container length; photo-check count and lot; keep cartons reasonably dry. Pair with in-pack anti-mold protection on mold-sensitive footwear and leather lanes.
- RFQ or evaluation sample — Email sales@simedamoldproof.com or WhatsApp +86-1395 9989 108. Optional: 8 dry poles evaluation sample — freight paid by the buyer; work email required. Outcomes vary — Simeda does not guarantee mold-free or claim-free arrival.
OEM / customization (summary)
Simeda hanging dry poles are offered mainly as CaCl₂ or SAP fills, with OEM/ODM options:
- Sorbent choice: CaCl₂ (most buyers’ first choice) or SAP cost-effective alternative; other fills (e.g. MgCl₂, clay, silica) available for specific programs — ask.
- Weight & pack: Adjust strip weight within program rules; 10 or 14 strips/ctn.
- Print & card: Logo / handling text; with or without decorative paper card (“Zhihua”).
- Heat-seal paper options: Composite, nonwoven, Aihua, Dulai-style, mesh, OPP — detail on request.
- Die-lines: Paper card and outer carton die-cut files available for brand artwork.

FAQ
What is a container dry pole?
A hanging desiccant strip hung inside a shipping container to help manage humidity that feeds container rain. It is container-level control — not a substitute for in-pack sachets or chips on mold-sensitive goods.
CaCl₂ or SAP — which should I choose?
CaCl₂ is what most buyers choose first (higher category absorption reference, often discussed around ~300%). SAP is the cost-effective alternative (often discussed around ~200%) in the same hang format. Request datasheets and a side-by-side quote. References are not lane guarantees.
How many poles for a 20′ / 40′ / 40HQ?
Common discussion starts are about 4 / 8 / 10 for ~1 kg-class hanging units. Use as a starting point only, then inquire with container size, commodity, lane, and transit. See also the container desiccant buyer guide at https://simedamoldproof.com/container-desiccant/. Simeda does not guarantee mold-free or claim-free arrival.
What is the MOQ and shelf life?
Discussion MOQ often from 100 packs (custom print higher). Vacuum-packed shelf life is often cited around 2 years when stored cool, dry, and sealed. Confirm on quotation.
Which documents can I request?
Datasheet, MSDS, and REACH / RoHS / SGS-oriented files as available for the quoted SKU. Ask sales for the current document pack.
How do I request a quote or an 8-pole sample?
Email sales@simedamoldproof.com or WhatsApp +86-1395 9989 108. Sample freight is paid by the buyer; work email required.
