Although packaging material usually doesn't come wider than 60 inches, we have developed processes to produce these wraps in unlimited sizes. It is very common for us to produce a blanket 20 feet x 25 feet. Although many of the uses are non-military, we typically use military specification material because of its superior barrier properties and durable standards. 

Some of the more common materials used for these applications are: MIL-PRF-131K Class 1 (film foil or Tyvek), Class 2 (Kraft Foil), or Class 3 (scrim foil). Our customers use these blankets to wrap equipment which needs to be protected from moisture to prevent rust and corrosion. Large desiccant bags (April's featured product) are used in tandem with these blankets to help absorb moisture.

When equipment is secured to skids Edco Supply Corporation can produce what is known in the industry as a set. A set is made up of a blanket going over the part and a base which covers the skid. The customer will seal the two together when preparing the equipment for shipping. Again, desiccant bags can be used to absorb excess moisture. Many of our customers rely on Edco to help determine the type of material as well as the proper sizes of these blankets for the equipment being packaged.
