At Van Alstine, we’ve spent decades helping manufacturers protect their products, their reputation, and their bottom line. One of the most effective protective solutions for metals are Vapor Corrosion Inhibitors (VCIs), a proven technology designed to stop corrosion before it starts.
Corrosion is more than just surface damage. It leads to costly rework, product failure, and dissatisfied customers. That’s where VCI packaging and materials come in. These innovative solutions release invisible, protective vapors that form a molecular shield on metal surfaces, guarding against rust, oxidation, and environmental contaminants during storage and shipping.
Types of VCI Products for Every Application
At Van Alstine, we supply a wide range of VCI products to meet the needs of diverse industries. VCI films and bags are ideal for packaging metal components, combining physical protection with corrosion prevention. For enclosed or sensitive environments, emitters and diffusers provide continuous protection inside electrical cabinets and control panels. We also offer papers and wraps, a cost-effective solution for wrapping or interleaving parts during transit.
Features and Benefits of Vapor Corrosion Inhibitors
What makes Vapor Corrosion Inhibitors so effective is their simplicity and reliability. Unlike traditional methods, there’s no need for messy oils or greases. They are clean, dry, and easy to use. Once enclosed, they work automatically, reducing labor and improving operational efficiency. Many solutions are also recyclable and environmentally friendly, helping companies meet sustainability goals without sacrificing performance.
