Storing in a humid place: tips and solutions
Some storage locations have high humidity levels.
Why are some places particularly humid?
Cellars
Often buried and poorly ventilated, humidity can pass through walls and floors and remain permanently high.
Outdoor storage locations
Poorly thermally insulated, they suffer from strong day/night temperature variations, causing condensation on ceilings or walls, especially in the morning. Examples: metal containers.
Risks for stored objects
Products stored in humid environments can quickly deteriorate:
- Humidity damage and degradation
- Yellowed or curled paper
- Rusty metals
- Stains and warping on wooden furniture
Solutions for storing in a humid place
Permanent dehumidification
In places where humidity is constant (cellars, humid areas), it is recommended to use electric condensers or absorbent salts.
Storage in airtight containers
For fragile products (paper, textiles), choose airtight boxes. For maximum protection, place Air Sponge tape inside the boxes.
Protection against condensation peaks
In places subject to rapid temperature variations, such as containers, it is effective to place Air Sponge tape on the ceiling to absorb moisture as soon as it appears.
