Moisture Barrier Bag

When it comes to shipping fine art and going into international shipping vapor barrier packing or VCI is a must.

What is Vapor Barrier Packaging or VCI?

Vapor barrier packaging or VCI aka Volatile Corrosion Inhibitors is a layer of protection and a guard between your items and the corrosive damaging outside elements such as moister. It is a line of defense for our clients highly valued items that will protect these valuables from corrosion and rust. There are different types of VCI, some are a heat sealed bag, heat sealed shrink or, a coated paper.

We use vapor barrier bags from 3D Barrier Bags There bags meet the requirements of

Military Specification MIL-PRF-13K cLASS 1 which is s a poly foil laminate water-vapor proof barrier material.

It is used when the government needs a moisture sensitive good packaged in a moisture vapor controlled environment. It acts as a barrier between the outside air and the part which is sealed inside the barrier bag.

Moister Bags are not to be confused with air bags which retard the migration of air. The moister barrier bag or vapor bag blocks the migration of water vapor.

We at Las Vegas Pack and Ship have extensive experience on calculating how much desiccant is required for the volume to be protected inside the bag using a activated clay conforming to the MIL-D-3464 military specification. This is the U.S. military specification for silica gel and clay desiccants. The term unit is a quantity of desiccant, which will absorb a set percentage of its weight at certain levels of humidity. Mil-D-3464E defines a “Unit” as the amount of desiccant needed to absorb: 3 grams of water at 20% RH, 25˚C, and.

Meeting Military and Government Moving Requirements

Las Vegas Pack and Ship has done extensive work with packaging and shipping for federal, state and local government arms. Packaging and shipping military supplies, medical supplies and, vehicles. We as well have extensive time on site and crating items for GovPlanet transportation. When moving items such as this there are requirements that must be met and we meet all MIL-STD-2073-1 which is Standard Practice for Military Packaging.

Electronics and other items of that nature along with art that are being transported via sea shipping must have a moister vapor proof packaging to insure safe transportation. Salt water and salt water vapor are highly corrosive to metal and electronic components as well as fine art original paintings. Placing a humidity indicator card inside the bag provide external monitoring of humidity levels inside containers and packages.
