    Key details

  • • Moisture caused by condensation leads to billion-krona losses annually in supply chains.

Moisture, particularly condensation during transportation and storage, continues to cause significant economic losses in global supply chains, with damages running into billions of Swedish kronor annually. According to Pär Svensson, Sales Director at Super Dry, condensation — also known as 'container rain' — arises when goods are transported under variable temperatures, leading to mold growth, corrosion, and packaging damage.

Super Dry specializes in mitigating these risks by providing moisture-absorbing desiccants and comprehensive customer education to increase awareness of moisture-related dangers. Ola Jernberg, Chief Commercial Officer, highlights that the impact of moisture spans the entire supply chain, from production facilities to retail outlets. By adopting proactive moisture management strategies and preventive measures, companies can reduce product losses, decrease costly claims, and simultaneously lower their environmental footprint.

With over 25 years of experience and a global network, Super Dry positions itself as a 'global supply chain guardian' committed to protecting products and enhancing supply chain sustainability for Swedish businesses and beyond. Their approach underscores that relatively small investments in moisture control can translate into substantial savings and climate benefits.
