SUPER DRYness, Super Safety: SUPER DRY supports supply chains through moisture control
2025 was a turbulent time for global shipping, with concerns carrying over into 2026. Global supply chain uncertainty and shifting trade policies complicate maritime logistics. Persistent security threats force operators to reassess the reliability of sea freight.
Delays and operational costs dominate industry debate. Yet a fast-rising threat to cargo security is often overlooked. Moisture damage is quietly becoming one of the most expensive consequences of global trade. 10% of global shipments suffer financial losses due to humidity-related damage.
Longer Journeys, Greater Exposure:
Rerouted or congested vessels increase the risk of cargo moisture.
Security disruptions around the Red Sea have diverted vessels from the Suez Canal to the Cape of Good Hope. By early 2025, over 75% vessels had shifted away from the Red Sea, compared with 2023. The rerouting has extended Asia-Europe voyages by around two weeks.
Longer journeys mean extended exposure to fluctuating temperatures and humidity. Shipping containers are not airtight. Moist air enters easily, gets trapped and condenses as ships move between tropical and cooler climates.
“SUPER DRY protects your cargo through uncertainty,” from SUPER DRY.
Moisture damage extends beyond the sea. Port congestion due to disruptions keeps containers stranded for days or even weeks. In late 2025, the average port delay for cargo ships in Rotterdam exceeded 10 days. During said delays, cargo experiences repeated cycles of heating and cooling while constantly exposed to ambient humidity, intensifying container condensation.
The moisture damage reveals itself only on arrival: mold on textiles, corrosion on metal parts and packaging rendered unusable. Industry estimates place global moisture-related cargo losses at tens of billions of dollars each year.
Small Intervention, Big Protection:
SUPER DRY helps mitigate moisture risk under pressure.
SUPER DRY desiccants can’t fix uncertainty or clear congested ports, but they do address one of shipping’s most predictable threats: fluctuating humidity and condensation. They absorb excessive moisture and help stabilize humidity throughout long voyages. SUPER DRY desiccants are particularly effective in containers, providing sustainable moisture prevention solutions that comply with global standards.
“SUPER DRY guarantees certified moisture protection,” from SUPER DRY.
Containers remain sealed throughout transit, leaving companies with limited control over the cargo until it reaches its destination. During prolonged transport or inactivity, SUPER DRY desiccants continuously protect cargo from moisture damage, operating reliably without electricity or monitoring.
Efforts to protect supply chains from moisture damage often rely on costly, reactive measures such as contingency plans. Moisture protection with SUPER DRY desiccants stands out as a low-cost and timely solution.
Growing Attention, Trusted Solution:
SUPER DRY guarantees reliable protection for global businesses.
A small investment in SUPER DRY desiccants can prevent losses many times its cost, particularly for high-value items like electronics and luxury goods. Such targeted cost-effective risk management is gaining appeal.
Awareness of moisture-damage prevention is evident among multinational manufacturers and retailers. Many of them mandate the use of SUPER DRY desiccants for shipping to mitigate risks to profits and reputation posed by humidity.
