Corrosion Protection During storage and transport, non-treated metals can corrode. Corrosion is a result of oxidation or aggressive elements in the air. Traditional protection materials against corrosion such as oil, grease or paint are time and labour intensive and not environmentally friendly .
VCI 2000 (Vapor corrosion inhibitor) technology protects untreated metal against corrosion/oxidation.
VCI 2000 creates an invisible molecular protection layer on the metal. The technology evaporates out of the different products (PE film, Pur foam, paper, tablets etc) to saturate the closed environment. Once the environment around the metal is saturated, a thin molecular protection layer is formed on the metal hence avoiding corrosion. Moisture or impurities in the direct air around the metal can no longer influence metal to corrode. VCI 2000 technology is incorporated in different materials
- Polyethylene film
- Foam pieces
- Paper and corrugated
- Powder and tablets
- Liquids (oil-based, water-based, Soya-based)
- Emitters
- Laminated products
Benefits
- Multi metal corrosion protection: all metals are protected
- Keeps during minimum 2 years an effective protection against corrosion. VCI 2000 can be used for storage and long distance transport purposes
- Can be applied as a normal packaging
- So many different products and solutions available that almost each requested protection can be done: total corrosion solution
- Also protect places that are difficult to reach (complex machinery)
- Safe to use (recyclable, environmentally safe)
- Approved by NATO and other important companies
- Some products are even FDA approved
- Do not affect the metal : after unpacking the VCI 2000 layer simply evaporates in the air.
- Opening and re-closing of the packaging does not affect the VCI 2000 functioning
- No extra handling after use (the VCI 2000 layer disappears once the active VCI 2000 source around the metal is taken away).
