By: Protective Packaging Corporation The manufacturer contacted Protective Packaging’s on-site packaging team to see what the company had to offer. Protective Packaging evaluated the storage environment and length of storage and proposed a multi-part solution designed to maintain a moisture-free environment around the rocket engines in the event that the missile air purge system failed. Protective Packaging created an enclosure comprised of a one piece bag that would be sealed together along the top. The enclosure was made from Protect Scrim B, a moisture barrier material used in military packaging (http://www.protectivepackaging.net/ “We regularly use multiple products to achieve a more effective storage environment,” Several times during the procedure, the manufacturer reminded the team to be careful saying, “Remember, these are $10 million national treasures we are working with.” An irreplaceable piece of space history is now packaged in a close-to-zero humidity, flexible enclosure that is able to withstand damage caused by dust, moisture, pests, and other air born contaminants.
