What are Silica Gel DRY Packs and how do they work?

Eco-Sorb has a glass-like, porous structure of silicon dioxide (SiO2). It adsorbs up to 30% of its own weight. And if you read it correctly, that’s adsorb and not absorb.

Also Available EcoSorb QTY10x 25g Packs 

Silica Gel adsorbs moisture with the water molecules adhering to the surface of the Silica Gel granule. Silica Gel is covered in millions of pores that retain this moisture. Pore opening size ranges a magnitude up and down from a billionth of a metre (nanometre). The pores create a huge surface area, which will bind water through surface adsorption and capillary action.
Silica Gel comes packaged in Tyvek bags which are made from high density polyethylene fibers, making them extremely tear-resistant. In addition, Tyvek is lightweight, flexible, smooth, low-linting, and is resistant to water, chemical abrasion, and ageing. The Eco-Sorb Silica Gel range is food grade.

How to dehydrate Eco-Sorb Dry packs

• Place the tray with packs in a central rack and leave for about 1/2 hour
• Set aside to cool on a dry tea towel or paper towel.

**NOTE If you have a food dehydrator for herbs and food products you can use this just as effectively following the operating instructions for your device.

You must use your own initiative.

If you are not sure whether they are still working we suggest dehydrating about every 1 months or so.
