Pool Disinfectant Exports at Risk of Moisture and Breakage? Thai Producers Shift to High-Strength Moisture-Proof Fiber Drums

Pool Disinfectant Exports at Risk of Moisture and Breakage? Thai Producers Shift to High-Strength Moisture-Proof Fiber Drums

2025-03-03

Thailand’s pool disinfectant industry exports heavily to the Middle East, Africa, and neighboring Southeast Asia. Products are mainly chlorine-based granules, powders, and water-treatment blends. Under Thailand’s high heat and humidity and long sea routes, two packaging failures are most common: moisture absorption that causes caking and active-ingredient fluctuation, and insufficient compression strength leading to breakage, leakage, and cosmetic damage. Granular disinfectants are dense and heavy; weak drums magnify the risk during stacking and container vibration.

To address this, Thai exporters are upgrading to high-strength, moisture-proof fiber drums. Multi-layer paper-fiber walls boost ring crush strength; reinforced bases distribute stacking loads; and moisture-barrier liners (PE or aluminum-plastic inner bags) plus tight sealing reduce vapor ingress and re-humidification. Compared with plastic drums, fiber drums tolerate thermal expansion better, resist fatigue under transport shock, and offer lighter weight and higher container-loading efficiency.

Across Thailand’s pool chemical export chain, packaging is evolving from a basic container into a system for moisture control, heavy-load stacking, and long-distance logistics stability. Wider use of moisture-proof heavy-duty drums helps Thai exporters secure global deliveries with predictable performance and cost.
