The Absorpole® is a patented product, based on the proven results of calcium chlorides outstanding ability to absorb moisture from the air. The pole is easy to hang in containers and fits flush in the recess of the container wall, resulting in minimal loss of space within the container. By hanging in the recess, the poles are protected during loading and unloading of the container.

To activate the Absorpole® you simply pull it out of its container and hang in the container. The calcium chloride at the top of the pole immediately starts to absorb moisture from the surrounding air. The desiccant material gradually dissolves into brine which is captured in a collector. Once captured, the moisture will not re-evaporate into the air.
The absorption characteristics of calcium chloride provide Absorpole® with a superior absorption capacity, even at low humidity levels, and the ability to effectively protect cargo throughout the entire voyage.
Example applications
Generally, 4 – 6 poles are required for 20-foot containers and 6 – 8 poles for 40-foot containers. The number may vary depending on the length of the voyage, the range of temperatures encountered and the type of cargo protected.
Absorpole is made only of PE/PP plastics and salt, which are non-toxic and recyclable. Absorpole is a one-time product and can be disposed with regular waste.
