FAQ – How effectively eliminate condensation in industrial premises?

Condensation is a physical phenomenon involving a change in the state of water.

Condensation in industrial environments

Condensation is a physical phenomenon during which water changes state, from being gaseous to solid or liquid. Water vapour in the air generally condenses in the form of droplets on surfaces. Condensation can damage surfaces and pipes, in both summer and winter, by causing mould to grow.

Desiccant systems, which are less energy-intensive than ventilation systems, can dehumidify premises regardless of outdoor weather conditions.

Preventing condensation in industrial buildings

In industrial buildings, humidity control is essential for maintaining an optimal operations process. DESSICA offers air drying systems designed to maintain low humidity levels, thereby increasing profitability and reducing losses.

Air dryers and dehumidifiers to combat condensation

DESSICA sells various models of industrial desiccant air dryers. For an in-depth assessment of your installation, contact our technical sales engineers.

In agri-food production and packaging workshops, humidity control is a key parameter for the smooth running of operations, particularly for slicing and preparing pre-packaged products. Dehumidifying the air reduces condensation and the risk of dripping on walls. These measures significantly contribute to reducing airborne contamination.

In the plant rooms of water treatment, pumping and distribution stations, protecting equipment and buildings helps preserve their overall condition and reduce damage caused by condensation. DESSICA equipment enables dehumidification year-round (summer or winter) while minimising energy consumption. The functioning of the industrial air dryer is adjusted according to the seasons to optimise energy efficiency and maintain dry premises throughout the year.

• Maintain a constant low relative humidity in your industrial premises: production workshop, storage area, packaging area, laboratory, etc.
• Provide a controlled atmosphere regardless of external weather conditions
• Reduce losses
• Improve the quality of the finished product
• Increase productivity
• Shorten drying times
• Prevent mould growth and reduce the risk of microbiological contamination
