The Bentonite Clay Advantage
An All-Natural, Sustainable Moisture Control Desiccant Solution for Packaging Protection Along Supply Chains

Desiccant absorbers are critical to maintaining product quality and shelf life. Packaging engineers responsible for ensuring the quality and shelf life of packaged products face a range of considerations when it comes to sourcing the desiccant that is right for their applications.

Bentonite clay is an abundant and naturally-occurring mineral that results from weathering and sedimentation. Its principal ingredient is calcium montmorillonite, a highly adsorbent, chemically inert and non-corrosive substance. When mined from the ground, then processed and dried into the form of granules, bentonite clay attracts and binds water vapor readily within its complex and highly layered structure, making it a highly effective desiccant.

  • Better Performance - Tests show that bentonite clay offers higher adsorption capacity in the most common and relevant package conditions
  • Better Production - Bentonite clay is a naturally occurring, readily available mineral. The simple production process consists of extracting, drying and grading the minerals before packaging them.
  • Environmental Impact - The production process requires zero chemical inputs or additives, no water consumption, and uses minimal energy resulting in a small carbon footprint. The product is also packaged in sustainable Kraft paper, making the whole packet certified biodegradable (ASTM D5511 and ISO 15985).

Proven to outperform synthetic desiccants, Micro-Pak Dri Clay® is the most sustainable and effective desiccant on the market, defending your goods from moisture and extending shelf life.
