Clariant Container Dri® II Desiccants Meet New FCC Guidelines for Cocoa Bean Shipments
Muttenz, February 24, 2014 – Clariant, a world leader in specialty chemicals, today announced that its Container Dri® II desiccant products meet new specifications from the Federation of Cocoa Commerce Ltd. (FCC) for protection of cocoa bean shipments in containers. The updated FCC guidelines, published in November 2013, no longer recommend silica gel desiccant bags; instead, they now recommend calcium chloride desiccant bags with a minimum loading of 65 percent. Clariant’s Container Dri II desiccants not only meet these recommendations with a 65 percent or higher loading, but also provide the highest moisture absorption of any calcium chloride-based product. They easily address FCC absorption requirements and provide a cost-effective solution for cocoa bean shippers. Container Dri II desiccants are already providing excellent results for coffee shippers.
