Packaging electronic devices without film

More and more manufacturers of high-quality electronic devices are switching their shipping packaging to plastic-free alternatives. Instead of polybags or protective films, custom-made cardboard inlays or paper-based materials are used. This development not only supports sustainability goals but also strengthens the brand image among environmentally conscious end-customers. At the same time, it brings new challenges for product protection – especially regarding moisture.

High-performance desiccants protect electronic products without additional film packaging

Challenge: silica gel desiccants are not sufficient without additional film


Challenge: Silica gel desiccants are not sufficient without additional film

Condensation during transport or due to climatic fluctuations can lead to damage to sensitive surfaces, lenses, components, or contacts. Previously commonly used silica gel bags are not sufficient in such open packaging systems, as their dehumidification performance is inadequate without additional film wrapping.

Solution: BoxDryy® as an answer to reduced packaging with maximum protection

The solution is the conversion of silica gel bags to the high-performance desiccant BoxDryy®: It absorbs many times its own weight in moisture and safely binds it into a solid mass.

Result: Effective moisture protection even in plastic-free packaging

With BoxDryy®, effective moisture protection for electronic devices is achieved directly in the breathable interior of the packaging – without an additional barrier layer. Both packaging effort and the use of protective films can thus be effectively reduced.
