Protect Metal Parts from Rust with Eco-Friendly ARMOR WRAP®

When it comes to protecting valuable metal parts from rust and corrosion during storage or shipping, using the right material can make all the difference. ARMOR WRAP® VCI Paper is the industry-leading solution designed to shield ferrous and non-ferrous metals from rust. Whether you’re a manufacturer, a logistics company, or a supplier, ARMOR WRAP offers unparalleled performance to keep your metal parts safe, clean, and corrosion-free.


What Is ARMOR WRAP® VCI Paper?

ARMOR WRAP® VCI Paper is a revolutionary product embedded with volatile corrosion inhibitors (VCI) on both sides of neutral pH kraft paper, doubling the protection provided by traditional single-sided VCI papers. This advanced technology forms an invisible layer of protection on metal surfaces, displacing moisture and neutralizing conditions that cause rust and corrosion.


How ARMOR WRAP® Works

  1. VCI Activation: When metal parts are enclosed in ARMOR WRAP, the VCIs embedded in the paper activate, creating a protective molecular barrier on the metal surface.
  2. Moisture Displacement: This barrier repels moisture, one of the leading causes of rust and corrosion.
  3. Comprehensive Protection: The dual-sided VCI ensures protection regardless of how the metal parts are wrapped, making it easy to use and highly effective.

Who Benefits from ARMOR WRAP® VCI Paper?

  • Manufacturers: Protect raw materials, machinery, and finished parts during production or storage.
  • Exporters and Logistics Companies: Prevent rust during long-distance shipping, especially in humid environments.
  • Automotive and Aerospace Industries: Ensure high-value parts remain corrosion-free for just-in-time manufacturing.
  • Military Applications: Meet stringent military standards for rust prevention and storage requirements.
