Producing and shipping quality products on time is a challenge in any industry. The last thing you want to have happen is that the goods arrive at destination covered with mold.

Micro-Pak® is here with products that can help you and other suppliers avoid mold and moisture issues.

Understanding Mold & Moisture

Mold needs moisture to grow.Sometimes the ambient humidity is sufficient for mold growth and other times there are outside issues. Mold is a natural and important part of the environment, but we do need to control it in our work environments to ensure that goods arrive as intended.

Prevention Strategy

To control mold in factories there needs to be an organized program for maintaining cleanliness of buildings, proper storage and checking of materials, a review of manufacturing processes as well as checking how finished goods are stored before shipment.

Evaluate & Regulate

Package your products withMicro-Pak® stickersorMicro-Pak® PE sheets, which are anti-microbial, react to the higher humidity and create an atmosphere that will actively eliminate mold spores. An alternative approach is to use an all-natural, non-toxicbiodegradabledesiccantsuch asMicro-Pak Dri Clay® Kraftwhich will lower the humidity or moisture level inside the package so to prevent the growth of mold spores.

Database

As part of the mold prevention process it is essential to utilize proper technical equipment when identifying problem areas in the manufacturing process or the item produced. At Micro-Pak®, technicians use specialized moisture meters, digital hygrometers, UV tunnel measuring devices and a variety of other analytical tools. The Micro-Pak® technicians take samples during their visits that are then analyzed by trained microbiologists in their own lab facilities for any signs of mold. Their online Factory Portal enables them to analyze problems found in the more than 3,000 factory assessments which they conduct annually. This database allows them to focus on the most frequently occurring problems and assist suppliers in fixing these points before they encounter a mold issue.

Factory organization, production control, technical analysis combined with the use of anti-microbials or desiccants are all essential steps in mold prevention. When it comes to protecting your brand, be sure to select Micro-Pak® products to protect yours!
