maximum absorption and long-lasting moisture control
.
Should we seal off the vents in a container when installing container desiccants?
Yes, seal off the vents - this will ensure no “new” air is introduced into the shipping container during the voyage.
What is a shipping desiccant, and how does it work?
A shipping desiccant is a moisture-absorbing product used in shipping containers, warehouses, and storage facilities to prevent condensation, mould, rust, and packaging damage. It works by absorbing excess humidity from the air, reducing the risk of container rain, and keeping cargo dry throughout transit.
Why do I need desiccants for my shipping container?
When cargo is sealed inside a shipping container, temperature fluctuations cause moisture to condense, leading to:
mould and mildew growth on textiles, food, and paper products.
Rust and corrosion on metal parts and machinery.
Warpage and swelling in wooden products and furniture.
Packaging deterioration, weakening cartons, labels, and shrink wrap.
Using high-quality container desiccants helps prevent moisture-related cargo damage, ensuring safe delivery and product integrity.
How many desiccants do I need for my shipping container?
The amount of container desiccant required depends on:
Container size (20ft vs. 40ft).
Cargo type (wood, textiles, food, machinery, etc.).
Humidity levels along the shipping route.
Shipping duration (short-term vs. long-term storage).
General Desiccant Usage Guide:
20ft Container → 4 to 8 desiccant bags
40ft Container → 8 to 16 desiccant bags
High-humidity shipments → Additional desiccants for extra protection.
For precise desiccant recommendations, consult Protection Experts Australia for customized moisture control solutions. It all depends on the type of shipping desiccant and its absorption rate.
How do I place desiccants inside a shipping container?
For maximum effectiveness, place container desiccants as follows:
Hang desiccant bags along container walls to capture moisture as it rises.
Distribute evenly around cargo for balanced absorption.
Avoid floor placement, as standing water can reduce effectiveness.
Allow the desiccant to have room to absorb moisture in the air, and avoid having cargo sitting directly against the hanging desiccant.
How long do desiccants last in a shipping container?
The effectiveness of shipping desiccants depends on humidity levels, temperature changes, and cargo type.
Standard usage lifespan: 45 to 90 days
High-humidity shipments: Additional desiccants may be required for extended protection
Can desiccants leak or damage my cargo?
Quality container desiccants are designed to absorb moisture safely without leaking.
Pro-Ex Gel 1kg converts absorbed water into a gel-like substance, preventing spills.
Non-leak desiccant pouches ensure moisture is trapped without harming cargo.
For high-value shipments, choosing leak-proof desiccants from Protection Experts Australia prevents moisture damage and contamination.
Do desiccants work in extreme weather conditions?
Yes - Industrial-grade desiccants are designed for:
Tropical and humid climates where condensation is high.
Cold environments where temperature fluctuations increase moisture risk.
Ocean freight and long-distance shipments with prolonged exposure to varying temperatures.
Using high-performance desiccants like Pro-Ex Gel 1kg ensures that cargo stays dry in all conditions.
Are desiccants safe for use with food and pharmaceuticals?
Yes, but it depends on the type of desiccant and packaging method:
Food-safe desiccants are indirect moisture absorbers designed for use inside shipping containers without direct contact with food.
Silica gel desiccants are commonly used in pharmaceutical packaging for controlled humidity levels.

What is Container Rain?
Container rain refers to moisture condensation inside a shipping container that occurs when warm, humid air cools down and forms water droplets on the container’s interior surfaces. As temperatures fluctuate during transit, this condensation can drip onto goods, leading to mould growth, rust, corrosion, and packaging damage. When the container is exposed to temperatures below the dew point, the moisture from the ambient air will condensate, which is visible at the ceiling and walls of the container. This water will then drip onto the cargo.
[EXTRACT OBJECT]
Container rain is a major concern in international shipping, particularly for long-distance freight, ocean shipments, and containers crossing multiple climate zones. Without proper moisture control, it can lead to significant financial losses due to damaged products.
How Does Container Rain Form?
Container rain is caused by temperature fluctuations and humidity inside the container. Here’s a breakdown of the process:
1. High Humidity Trapped Inside the Container
Shipping containers are airtight once sealed, meaning any moisture present at the time of loading remains inside.
Cargo with a high moisture content (such as wood, textiles, paper, and food) naturally releases moisture into the air.
Even seemingly dry goods can contribute to humidity buildup.
2. Temperature Drops During Transit
As the container moves through different climates or night-time temperature drops, the air inside cools down.
Cooler air cannot hold as much moisture as warm air, leading to condensation.
3. Condensation Forms on the Coldest Surfaces
Water vapor in the air turns into droplets when it touches the cold interior walls and ceiling of the container.
This effect is especially strong in metal shipping containers, as metal conducts heat and cools quickly.
4. Water Drips onto Cargo (Container Rain)
Over time, moisture accumulates on the container ceiling and walls.
It then drips onto cargo, much like rain inside the container—hence the term "container rain."
[EXTRACT OBJECT]
What is the best way to hang container desiccants in shipping containers?
Airflow Access = Moisture Access
Desiccants need
unobstructed access to ambient air
to pull moisture from it. If a desiccant is buried under cargo, crammed into a tight corner, or sealed away from airflow, it will be far less effective.
Proximity to Moisture Sources
Placing desiccants
near walls
,
under container ceilings
, or near
cargo that emits moisture
(like wood, textiles, or food) allows them to absorb humidity
before it condenses
.
Sufficient Open Volume Around Each Unit
A
hanging desiccant bag
works best when it has at least
10–30 cm of open space around it
, allowing air to circulate freely across the bag surface.
Best Practices for Desiccant Spacing and Placement
Avoid These Mistakes
Don’t
stack or bunch
desiccants together - it reduces surface area exposure.
Avoid
placing them directly on the floor
unless designed for it (e.g. flat desiccant mats).
Don’t place them inside shrink wrap - they can’t absorb moisture from sealed air.
[EXTRACT OBJECT]
Why You Should Avoid It
Blocked Airflow = Reduced Effectiveness
Desiccants work by
pulling moisture from the surrounding air
. If they’re wrapped in plastic or tightly sealed under stretch film,
air can’t reach them
, and they can’t absorb humidity effectively.
Traps Moisture Inside
If any moisture is already inside the pallet area when shrink-wrapped, the desiccant can’t
ventilate or remove
it - it’s essentially sealed in with the cargo.
Wasted Desiccant
Even a high-performing desiccant like calcium chloride won’t help if it's
isolated from open air
. You’ll use the product without getting full protection.
[EXTRACT OBJECT]
Better Practice
Hang or attach desiccants
along the container walls or from lashing rings.
Ensure
10–30 cm of open space
around each unit for proper airflow.
If placing near pallets, position the desiccant
outside the shrink wrap
or
between pallets
with clear air exposure.
[EXTRACT OBJECT]
Final Tip: Think of desiccants like air filters
The more air they’re exposed to, the more moisture they can absorb. For best performance, always consider
airflow
,
space
, and
strategic placement
— not just quantity.

Silica Gel
GENERAL FAQ
What happens when it’s full?
Non-indicating silica gel stops working but doesn’t change appearance. Indicating gel changes colour (e.g. orange → green).
Can you eat silica gel?
No. Silica gel is non-toxic but not edible and may cause choking or discomfort.
Where is silica gel used?
Silica gel is commonly used in electronics, food, vitamins, clothing, leather goods, toolboxes, safes, and shipping containers.
How long does it last?
In sealed packs – years. Once exposed, its lifespan depends on humidity and air exposure.
How much do I need?
General guide: 5 g per 1L of air volume. For bulk use (e.g. containers), use desiccants in grams to kilograms.
What’s the difference between white, orange, and blue silica gel?
See type comparison table below.
What is the main difference between Silica Gel and Oxygen Absorber?
The main difference between Silica Gel and Oxygen absorber is their function: • Oxygen Absorbers remove oxygen from sealed packaging to prevent spoilage, oxidation, and mold growth in food and sensitive products. • Silica gel absorbs moisture (humidity) to prevent condensation, mold, and corrosion inside packaging and storage containers. Both are essential for long-term preservation, but they serve different purposes.
Can silica gel be reused after it changes colour?
Yes. Silica gel beads, especially those with indicating colours (e.g. pink to blue), can usually be reactivated and reused 3 to 5 times before their performance starts to decline.
How do I reactivate silica gel?
Silica gel can be reactivated by removing the absorbed moisture using heat.
Microwave
: Place silica gel beads in a microwave-safe container. Use the defrost setting for 7–12 minutes, checking frequently to avoid overheating. Do not use high heat.
Oven
: Spread the beads in a shallow tray and bake at 200–250°F (up to 120°C) for 30 minutes to 2 hours. Do not exceed 125°C.
Colour Check:
Gel is fully reactivated when it returns to its original colour (e.g. deep blue for indicating gels).
Note
: Reactivation can be repeated several times, but performance may decline due to contamination or overheating.
Is silica gel safe to touch or use?
Yes, silica gel is generally non-toxic and safe to handle. It’s a synthetic form of sand designed to absorb moisture. Some indicating gels may contain additives that could cause mild skin irritation, but it is safe for most people.
What happens if silica gel is accidentally ingested?
Humans: Silica gel is chemically inert and non-toxic, but medical advice should be sought, especially for indicator gels or large quantities.
Pets: Contact a veterinarian. Risks include intestinal blockage or exposure to absorbed toxins, particularly if the sachet was used in food or medication packaging.
Do I need to prepare silica gel before use?

Oxygen Absorbers
GENERAL FAQ
Which is better for preserving beef jerky: Oxygen Absorbers or silica gel?
For beef jerky and dried meats, Oxygen Absorbers are the best choice because they: • Remove oxygen, preventing bacteria, mold, and spoilage. • Extend shelf life by slowing oxidation and fat rancidity. • Keep jerky fresh without affecting texture or taste.
Are Oxygen Absorbers safe for food storage?
Yes. Oxygen Absorbers are FDA-approved and safe for indirect food contact. However: • Do not open or eat the contents of an Oxygen Absorber packet. • Do not use Oxygen Absorbers in moist or wet foods (they are for dry food storage only). • Oxygen Absorbers are safe for grains, rice, beans, coffee, powdered milk, and dehydrated foods.
What happens if I use too many Oxygen Absorbers?
Using extra Oxygen Absorbers does not harm food but may: • Create a stronger vacuum effect in flexible packaging. • Make bags feel tighter than usual. It’s better to slightly overuse than to underuse, as any remaining oxygen can lead to spoilage.
Do Oxygen Absorbers make packages airtight or vacuum-sealed?
No. Oxygen Absorbers remove oxygen, but they do not remove nitrogen or other gases. This means: • Packages may not shrink like vacuum-sealed bags but are still protected. • The contents inside are preserved by the absence of oxygen, preventing spoilage. • If properly sealed, the packaging should feel slightly compressed after some time.
What does the expiry date mean on my Oxygen Absorber?
The expiry date indicates when Oxygen Absorbers should be used for optimal results, typically within 18 months of production. They remain effective until opened, at which point oxidation begins. Proper storage—sealed, away from heat and sunlight—ensures longevity. If partially used, reseal in a vacuum bag and use within six months. Click here to view a statement from our supplier.

Once placed in position, how long does an Oxygen Absorber continue to work?
Oxygen Absorbers once exposed to oxygen will immediately start to oxidise, capturing the surrounding oxygen. This activation period can last between 4 hours to 24 hours. Once the absorber has completely oxidised, the absorber is no longer working. This might sound like a problem, however bear in mind that the role of the absorber is to remove oxygen within your sealed package. Should that package remain sealed, then the conditions within the package will remain oxygen-free. Re-open a package and you will be exposing the contents to oxygen. In this case, the original absorbers should be discarded and replaced with new oxygen absorbers. There are a couple of variables to consider: • How permeable is your packaging? A high barrier packaging solution such as mylar will ensure that oxygen does not pass through to package contents. The lower the permeability of the packaging material (e.g. paper bag), the more often oxygen absorbers will need to be replaced. • Oxygen absorbers once fully loaded or ‘spoiled’ no longer have the capacity to absorb additional oxygen. It’s important to therefore make sure that you ‘round up’ when calculating your oxygen absorber needs. Underestimating your oxygen absorber needs will leave a portion of oxygen within your package causing contents to deteriorate faster over time.
How does an Oxygen Absorber work?
Oxygen Absorbers trigger an oxidation reaction when exposed to air, causing the iron powder inside to rust and trap oxygen. They function like sponges but for oxygen instead of moisture. Once full, they must be replaced to maintain an oxygen-free environment. Unlike desiccants, which absorb moisture, Oxygen Absorbers specifically remove oxygen.
What is an Oxygen Absorber?
Oxygen Absorbers (or scavengers) are small packets containing iron powder and other ingredients that react with oxygen to form iron oxide, effectively removing oxygen at a molecular level. Available in various sizes, they absorb oxygen until full. By eliminating oxygen, they extend food shelf life, preventing spoilage, mold growth, and oxidation—ideal for storing grains, dried fruits, meats, and dehydrated foods.
Why should I use Oxygen Absorbers in food storage?
Oxygen Absorbers help preserve food by: • Preventing mold and bacterial growth by removing oxygen. • Extending the shelf life of dried foods, grains, and powders. • Maintaining freshness, flavor, and texture by preventing oxidation. • Protecting against insect infestations (bugs cannot survive without oxygen). Using Oxygen Absorbers in Mylar bags, mason jars, and vacuum-sealed containers ensures long-term food storage safety.
What is the main difference between an Oxygen Absorber and silica gel?
The main difference between Oxygen Absorbers and silica gel is their function: • Oxygen Absorbers remove oxygen from sealed packaging to prevent spoilage, oxidation, and mold growth in food and sensitive products. • Silica gel absorbs moisture (humidity) to prevent condensation, mold, and corrosion inside packaging and storage containers. Both are essential for long-term preservation, but they serve different purposes.
30cc Oxygen Absorber
What are 30cc Oxygen Absorbers used for?
30cc Oxygen Absorbers are used in sealed packaging to: • Extend shelf life of dried foods, powders, and snacks. • Prevent mold and bacterial growth by removing oxygen. • Preserve beef jerky, dried meats, and protein powders. • Protect grains, dehydrated fruits, and flour from spoilage. • Stop oxidation in pharmaceuticals and electronics. They work best in airtight containers like Mylar bags, vacuum-sealed bags, and food storage jars.
How many 30cc Oxygen Absorbers should I use?
The factors to consider when calculating how many 30cc Oxygen Absorbers you require are: • The volume of the sealed package • The volume occupied by the food product. The 30cc Oxygen Absorber calculation isolates the volume of the food packaging void – sealed package volume less food weight – multiplied by 20%. The factor of 20% reflects that our atmosphere comprises 20% oxygen and 80% nitrogen. For those who like the numbers, the formula is:
(Sealed package volume – food volume) × 20%
. And for those who prefer a shortcut (who doesn’t),
check out our online Oxygen Absorber Calculator to find out how many you will need at the click of a button.
How do I know if my 30cc Oxygen Absorber is working?
A new 30cc Oxygen Absorber will have a loose powdered feel when pinched. It should feel free of clumps and may feel warm (a by-product of the absorber working in a moist environment). Spent (or expired) 30cc Oxygen Absorbers can feel hard or crunchy.
How long does it take for 30cc Oxygen Absorbers to work?
30cc Oxygen Absorbers, once exposed to the atmosphere, begin to get to work immediately. That is why we suggest that unused 30cc Oxygen Absorbers should be resealed within 30 minutes to ensure the integrity of the product is maintained.
How can I be assured that the 30cc Oxygen Absorbers I received are new and ready to use?
We understand that Protection Experts Australia customers should feel confident they are receiving the best quality products. The unopened 30cc Oxygen Absorber bag might feel hard, but that is due to the vacuum seal as they are all clumped together. Once the bag is opened, the sachets will separate and should feel like the container sand/granules. All our 30cc Oxygen Absorbers are packaged with a quality check, called the ‘eye’. The indicating eye is packaged with the 30cc Oxygen Absorbers and will appear pink, showing that the package is sealed and oxygen-free. Should the eye appear purple, this indicates that oxygen has penetrated the packaging through possibly a puncture or poor seal and the 30cc Oxygen Absorbers have been compromised. In this instance, we ask that you contact our office immediately so that the problem can be rectified.
[EXTRACT OBJECT]
I don’t need to use them all, how can I store my 30cc Oxygen Absorbers so they last?
Store 30cc Oxygen Absorbers at room temperature (5°C to 30°C), away from direct sunlight. They should be stored in their sealed package or a glass jar with a gasketed lid. Select the smallest glass jar possible to minimise the oxygen the absorbers will remove from the jar. 30cc Oxygen Absorbers in a well-sealed container will cause the lid to pop down. The shelf life of a 30cc Oxygen Absorber is up to 18 months.
How long will it take a 30cc Oxygen Absorber to remove all the oxygen from my sealed bag/container?
How quickly 30cc Oxygen Absorbers remove oxygen from the atmosphere will depend on the conditions. In dryer climates, it may take up to a week for 30cc Oxygen Absorbers to fully activate. Warmer, humid climates however accelerate the process and may take only 48 hours for the same result.
I’m using 30cc Oxygen Absorbers, why aren’t my bags getting hard?
30cc Oxygen Absorbers trap oxygen. Given that air comprises 20% oxygen and 80% nitrogen, the absorber will only be removing the 20% of the atmosphere that is oxygen. The volume of nitrogen remaining will mean your bag will not deflate to the extent of the bag becoming hard or rigid.
If I use vacuum packaging or nitrogen flushing to package my goods, do I still need to use 30cc Oxygen Absorbers?
Both these methods are used to remove the oxygen content from a package. Vacuum packaging achieves this by sucking out all air and then sealing the package. Nitrogen flushing forces the heavier nitrogen gas into packaging, pushing out the oxygen content. In both instances, some oxygen remains. It is estimated that when these methods are used there can be 2–3% of oxygen remaining. 30cc Oxygen Absorbers can then be used to capture the residual oxygen present.
I need to freeze my product. How will that affect the effectiveness of my 30cc Oxygen Absorbers?
30cc Oxygen Absorbers more rapidly capture oxygen at room temperature. Under normal room conditions (20°C), packages will be oxygen-free within 24 hours. At a temperature of 6°C, packages will be oxygen-free within 48 hours. In 0°C to 4°C conditions, packages will be oxygen-free within 72 hours. Given the content moisture levels can differ widely, we suggest customers test for their own unique circumstances.

How long does it take for 50cc Oxygen Absorbers to work?
50cc Oxygen Absorbers, once exposed to the atmosphere, begin to get to work immediately. That is why we suggest that unused 50cc Oxygen Absorbers should be resealed within 30 minutes to ensure the integrity of the product is maintained.
How can I be assured that the 50cc Oxygen Absorbers I received are new and ready to use?
We understand that Protection Experts Australia customers should feel confident they are receiving the best quality products. The unopened 50cc Oxygen Absorber bag might feel hard, but that is due to the vacuum seal as they are all clumped together. Once the bag is opened, the sachets will separate and should feel like the container sand/granules. All our 50cc Oxygen Absorbers are packaged with a quality check, called the ‘eye’. The indicating eye is packaged with the 50cc Oxygen Absorbers and will appear pink, showing that the package is sealed and oxygen-free. Should the eye appear purple, this indicates that oxygen has penetrated the packaging through possibly a puncture or poor seal and the 50cc Oxygen Absorbers have been compromised. In this instance, we ask that you contact our office immediately so that the problem can be rectified.

I don’t need to use them all, how can I store my 50cc Oxygen Absorbers so they last?
Store 50cc Oxygen Absorbers at room temperature (5°C to 30°C), away from direct sunlight. They should be stored in their sealed package or a glass jar with a gasketed lid. Select the smallest glass jar possible to minimise the oxygen the absorbers will remove from the jar. 50cc Oxygen Absorbers in a well-sealed container will cause the lid to pop down. The shelf life of a 50cc Oxygen Absorber is up to 18 months.
How long will it take a 50cc Oxygen Absorber to remove all the oxygen from my sealed bag/container?
How quickly 50cc Oxygen Absorbers remove oxygen from the atmosphere will depend on the conditions. In dryer climates, it may take up to a week for 50cc Oxygen Absorbers to fully activate. Warmer, humid climates however accelerate the process and may take only 48 hours for the same result.
I’m using 50cc Oxygen Absorbers, why aren’t my bags getting hard?
50cc Oxygen Absorbers trap oxygen. Given that air comprises 20% oxygen and 80% nitrogen, the absorber will only be removing the 20% of the atmosphere that is oxygen. The volume of nitrogen remaining will mean your bag will not deflate to the extent of the bag becoming hard or rigid.
If I use vacuum packaging or nitrogen flushing to package my goods, do I still need to use 50cc Oxygen Absorbers?
Both these methods are used to remove the oxygen content from a package. Vacuum packaging achieves this by sucking out all air and then sealing the package. Nitrogen flushing forces the heavier nitrogen gas into packaging, pushing out the oxygen content. In both instances, some oxygen remains. It is estimated that when these methods are used there can be 2–3% of oxygen remaining. 50cc Oxygen Absorbers can then be used to capture the residual oxygen present.
I need to freeze my product. How will that affect the effectiveness of my 50cc Oxygen Absorbers?
50cc Oxygen Absorbers more rapidly capture oxygen at room temperature. Under normal room conditions (20°C), packages will be oxygen-free within 24 hours. At a temperature of 6°C, packages will be oxygen-free within 48 hours. In 0°C to 4°C conditions, packages will be oxygen-free within 72 hours. Given the content moisture levels can differ widely, we suggest customers test for their own unique circumstances.
100cc Oxygen Absorber

What are 100cc Oxygen Absorbers used for?
100cc Oxygen Absorbers are used in sealed packaging to: • Extend shelf life of dried foods, powders, and snacks. • Prevent mold and bacterial growth by removing oxygen. • Preserve beef jerky, dried meats, and protein powders. • Protect grains, dehydrated fruits, and flour from spoilage. • Stop oxidation in pharmaceuticals and electronics. They work best in airtight containers like Mylar bags, vacuum-sealed bags, and food storage jars.
How many 100cc Oxygen Absorbers should I use?
The factors to consider when calculating how many 100cc Oxygen Absorbers you require are: • The volume of the sealed package • The volume occupied by the food product. The 100cc Oxygen Absorber calculation isolates the volume of the food packaging void – sealed package volume less food weight – multiplied by 20%. The factor of 20% reflects that our atmosphere comprises 20% oxygen and 80% nitrogen. For those who like the numbers, the formula is:
(Sealed package volume – food volume) × 20%
. And for those who prefer a shortcut (who doesn’t),

Do I need to line my container with Kraft paper?
Lots of containers are lined with kraft paper primarily for reasons of hygiene or to simply isolate the cargo from direct contact with the container walls. The liner will act as a kind of sponge, catching and absorbing any droplets of water and then re-evaporating the moisture into the air. If liner is used without Absorpoles it could contribute to a kind of pumping effect, drawing moisture out of the cargo. When used together with Absorpoles the liner will act as a buffer in extreme conditions, and will prevent any container rain from reaching the cargo. Much the same can be said for so-called dew cloths.

Indicating Silica Gel
GENERAL FAQ
What is Indicating Silica Gel used for?
Indicating Silica Gel is used to protect moisture-sensitive items from damage caused by humidity. It helps prevent rust, corrosion, mould, mildew, fogging, and spoilage in electronics, tools, instruments, food packaging (orange only), and storage containers.
How does Indicating Silica Gel work?
Indicating Silica Gel adsorbs (not absorbs) water vapour from the air. This means it traps moisture on its surface without swelling or becoming wet. It can adsorb up to 30% of its own weight in water vapour.
What is the difference between orange and blue Indicating Silica Gel?
Orange Indicating Silica Gel is food-safe and turns green when saturated. Blue Indicating Silica Gel contains cobalt chloride and is not food-safe. It changes from blue to pink as it absorbs moisture.
How do I know when Indicating Silica Gel needs replacing?
Indicating Silica Gel changes colour to show when it is spent. Orange turns green, and blue turns pink. This makes it easy to see when the silica gel needs to be replaced or reactivated.
Can Indicating Silica Gel be reused?
Yes. Indicating Silica Gel can be reactivated by heating it in a fan-forced oven at 110°C for 5 hours. The beads will return to their original colour. This process can be repeated up to 3 times before effectiveness declines.
How do I dispose of blue or orange Silica Gel beads?
If the silica gel has been used for standard moisture absorption (dehydration purposes), it can be safely disposed of in your regular household rubbish.
However, if the beads have been used for gas separation applications, they may have adsorbed gases other than moisture due to their small pore size (approximately 20 angstroms). In this case, special disposal is required. The used material must be taken to an authorised waste disposal facility, where a fee may apply for safe destruction.
Is Indicating Silica Gel safe?
Yes. Indicating Silica Gel is non-toxic, non-flammable, non-corrosive, and odourless. Only orange silica gel is food-safe. Blue silica gel should not be used with food.
