Businessman Fights Global . . . Humidity?

A North Carolina businessman is doing his part in fighting global humidity. You read it right: global humidity.

Concord, NC (PRWEB) May 14, 2009 -- Global humidity is the cousin of global warming that not as many people talk about, but which is just as real. According to a 2007 issue of the journal NATURE, as global warming has increased in the past 30 years, so too has humidity—rising as much as 2.2 percent around the world.

Sound humorous? Not really. Experts warn that an increase in humidity can damage many man-made products, and even worse, make the human body less efficient in cooling itself. Enter Eric Hebert and his SilicaGelPackets.com (http://silicagelpackets.com) business.

"In North Carolina, we're perhaps more aware of the problems that come with humidity than some other places," says Eric Hebert, "but along with the changes in temperatures over the past several years has come an increasing problem with humidity for people in many parts of the world. So I wanted to try to help people with something that really does cause some big headaches. And in thinking about it, I asked in what kinds of situations high humidity causes the most problems."

Eric Hebert's conclusion: It's more of a problem in situations where it's not easy or affordable to run an electric dehumidifier. His solution: Dry-Packs Dehumidifiers, which require no power source.

"The advantages of these Dry-Packs Dehumidifiers are that they can be used in places that do not have electric hookups like campers, garages, closets, safes, car storage, boats, cabinets, gun cases, storage containers, storage sheds, etc."

Even if you do have an electrical outlet nearby, the Dry-Packs Humidifiers save the electricity that would otherwise be used for them.

While some of the suggested uses for the Dry Packs are clearly recreational (for instance, used for camping) others are serious matters. For instance, it's important to keep electronics, cell phones, storage bags, briefcases, cabinets, cars and gun cabinets humidity-free—and the Dry-Packs are ideally suited for such uses. Other possible uses include safes, musical instrument cases, closets, collectibles, and storage containers.

So how do they work? Dry-Packs Dehumidifier Boxes utilize Silica Gel to absorb excess moisture to protect the user's products against condensation, mildew, corrosion, and fogging. They're portable and don't require electricity or batteries. "They can also be reactivated so they can be used over and over again," Eric Hebert says.
