VCI corrosion-prevention packaging protects metal parts from rust during shipping, export, warehousing and long-term storage. Creopack supplies Zerust® VCI solutions and custom protective packaging designed for industrial, military, automotive and manufacturing applications.
VCI packaging provides dry corrosion protection without coating the part in oil. Unlike oil-based rust prevention, VCI solutions can reduce handling time, eliminate degreasing steps and simplify unpacking before use.
VCI (Volatile Corrosion Inhibitor) corrosion protection works by releasing active molecules that form an invisible barrier on metal surfaces to prevent oxidation. It’s a clean, dry, and highly effective solution for protecting metal parts during storage or shipping.
VCI solutions are cleaner, faster, and safer than using rust-preventive oils:
VCI technology is effective on a wide range of metals:
VCI is commonly used in:
