Optimal protection for moisture-sensitive components
When production involves moisture-sensitive components, proper moisture handling is crucial to avoid damage, delamination, and quality defects during subsequent soldering processes. Even small amounts of moisture can cause components to fail – making an effective moisture barrier absolutely essential.
DescoEurope produces Moisture Barrier Bags (MBB), designed to protect delicate components from moisture ingress during both storage and transport. MBB bags create a strong barrier that significantly reduces water vapor transmission, thereby ensuring stable quality right up to assembly.
A complete solution for moisture control
To achieve a fully controlled process, MBB bags are typically used in combination with:
Moisture Sensitivity Labels
Indicate how long components can be outside the bag before being soldered onto a circuit board.
Humidity Indicator Cards (HIC)
Placed inside the bag, they change color at different humidity levels, allowing you to easily monitor the components' moisture exposure.
Desiccant
Absorbs moisture inside the sealed bag and counteracts the moisture that can naturally penetrate over time.
Do you need other sizes or types?
If you are looking for MBB bags in dimensions or variants other than those found on our website, you are always welcome to contact us. We can source almost anything – until proven otherwise.
