The demand for modular construction solutions as an alternative to conventional fixed construction has increased strongly in recent years. However, this construction method, which is considered cheaper, faster and more flexible, also presents manufacturers with challenges in their quality assurance.

Whether long timber, short timber, solid wood, wood-based materials or even a complete wooden house: wood of all kinds is exported and imported in large quantities, some of it in freight containers. At the same time, wood is a particularly sensitive cargo, as it reacts directly to fluctuations in ambient humidity, among other things. Read here how a wood processing company protects sawn timber in transport racks from moisture damage during the weeks-long transfer period.

Glass is a truly universal material with a wide variety of desired properties. In architecture and façade construction, for example, it can be used for sun and sound protection as well as thermal insulation. Read here, how a glass manufacturer with worldwide shipping protects its logistics projects against moisture damage during weeks of transport in containers.

Cables, speakers, lighting systems, decorations, costumes - all this and more is part of a big tour. To ensure that the equipment does not suffer moisture damage during transport and (interim) storage in containers, experts recommend the use of a suitable product for dehumidification. Our SeaDry high-performance desiccant, manufactured in Germany, was specially developed for use in freight containers. It effectively prevents condensation caused by excessive humidity, so that mould, rust and musty-smelling textiles don't stand a chance. Various event logistics companies, whether for concerts, road shows, theatres, circuses or trade fairs, already use SeaDry successfully and regularly in international projects.

Goods worth almost 1.5 trillion euros were exported by companies in the chemical-pharmaceutical industry from the leading countries in 2021 - including Germany, Belgium, the Netherlands, Switzerland and Ireland*. The goods are transported by water, rail and road, often for weeks at a time and through different climatic zones. One of ThoMar OHG's customers is also active in this area, but complaints arose from the recipient side when corrosion was discovered on drums and IBC racks during a logistics project at the destination.
