- Packaging personnel should always wear gloves while handling metal parts.
- Parts should be clean and free of fingerprints before wrapping.
- Package your clean products in VCI as quickly as possible.
- The unprinted side of VCI paper should face the metal.
- The metal part should be no more than 12 inches from the VCI product. The closer the VCI is to the metal, the better the corrosion protection.
- As a general rule, use 1 square foot of VCI paper or film for every 1-3 square feet of metal surface.
- Use at least square foot of VCI for every 1 cubic foot of void space.
- Use VCI to separate metal from acidic packing materials such as corrugated boxes and wooden pallets in order to prevent corrosion at the contact points.
- The duration of protection depends on the type of VCI paper or VCI film and the packing method used.
- Packages may be opened and resealed without affecting the corrosion protection. (Avoid touching metals with bare hands during the inspection).
- Green Packaging recommends inventorying no more than a six month supply of VCI packaging
- Store unused VCI in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight.
- For best results, Green Packaging recommends testing the VCI product for compatibility prior to use. We provide this service for our customers at no charge.
