Packaging Types & Moisture Protection

Choosing the right packaging ensures maximum shelf life for moisture-sensitive litters.

Packaging Type Barrera de Humedad Mejor Para
PE Woven Bag (standard) ★☆☆☆☆ Budget market, short storage
Aluminum Foil Bag ★★★★★ Premium, long storage
Kraft Paper + PE Liner ★★☆☆☆ Eco-friendly branding
Stand-Up Pouch (Ziplock) ★★★★☆ Retail, consumer convenience
Recommendation: For tofu and cassava litter (moisture-sensitive), use aluminum foil bags or stand-up pouches with ziplock. These provide superior moisture protection and extend shelf life by 3-6 months.
