Recent years, iHeir has encountered many headphone manufacturers who did not use effective anti-mildew products, resulting in serious mildew during transportation and storage. This not only affects the purchasing experience of end customers, but may also cause a crisis of consumer trust in the brand. In fact, mold erosion not only destroys the appearance of the headphones, but also causes serious damage to the electronic components inside them. Therefore, production factories and brands need to find a simple and effective anti-mildew solution.

iHeir has been focusing on the anti-mold and antibacterial industry for over 25 years. The powerful anti-mold products developed by iHeir can ensure that the headphones will not get moldy for at least 1 year, and can provide anti-mold contract guarantees. As long as customers use iHeir's anti-mold products, it will be difficult for the headphones to get moldy.

This article will analyze in depth why brand new headphones are prone to mold, and provide strategies on how to prevent mold using iHeir Power Pak anti-mold chips and iHeir Power Dryer H series desiccant to ensure that products are sold smoothly to the global market and put on sale on time.

Why do brand new headphones produced by the factory get moldy?

1. Material reasons: 

The internal fillings of the earmuffs, such as sponges , foams , and fabrics, are highly hygroscopic. If the humidity is too high during the production process, the surface of these materials will easily absorb moisture from the air, providing conditions for the growth and reproduction of mold.

2. The production environment is humid:

The production and assembly of headphones requires a lot of steps. If the humidity in the production workshop is not properly controlled, the headphones with complex internal structures will retain moisture in the air. Whether it is high temperature operation during assembly or humidity changes during storage, a micro-humidity environment will be formed inside the product, accelerating the growth of mold.

3. Packaging materials:

Many factories do not carry out sufficient drying before packaging, and the packaging materials they choose are highly breathable, which makes it easy for external moisture to enter the packaging. During long-distance transportation and storage, the humidity environment inside the packaging cannot be effectively controlled, and mold is easy to grow on the surface and inside of the headphones. The headphone bag is also a source that needs to be paid attention to, especially high-end headphone packaging boxes. A large amount of glue is required during the production process. These glues themselves are also a nutrient source for mold. Once the packaging box is moldy, it will quickly spread to the headphone earmuffs and other places, causing the entire set of products to mold.

4. Improper storage conditions:

If the finished headphones are stored in a warehouse with high humidity and poor ventilation after leaving the factory, moisture from the outside will continue to penetrate into the packaging, increasing the risk of mold growth. In addition, organic materials in the warehouse (such as wooden pallets, cartons, etc.) may also carry mold spores, further exacerbating the mold problem.

Prevent mold and mildew by adding Power Pak and iHeir Power Dryer to packaging.
 

To ensure that the headphones do not mold during global transportation and storage, you can add iHeir Power Pak anti-mold chips and iHeir Power Dryer H series desiccant to the packaging to prevent mold. Usually 1 piece of Power Pak and 1 pack of desiccant for each product.

Below are detailed anti-mold solutions:
 

1. Drying before packaging:

Before packaging, make sure the headphones are fully dried. You can use drying equipment to dry the product to remove excess moisture on the surface of the product and reduce the conditions for mold growth.

2. Add iHeir Power Pak anti-mold chips and iHeir Power Dryer H series desiccant into the package:

According to the size and volume of the headphone packaging box, add it in the packaging as needed. Each headphone packaging only needs 1 piece of Power Pak anti-mold chip and 1 pack of iHeir Power Dryer H series desiccant (2g-4g) , and a sterile environment can be formed inside the packaging within 72 hours.
 

Power Pak anti-mold chips can continuously release antibacterial ingredients in a confined space, inhibit the growth of mold spores, and keep the inside of the headphones sterile , thereby effectively preventing the growth and reproduction of mold.

iHeir Power Dryer H series desiccant is made of natural minerals and uses natural plant fibers as moisture-absorbing carriers. It is 100% naturally degradable and has a saturated moisture absorption rate of 300% of its own weight (25°C, RH=100%), which is 20 times that of ordinary silica gel desiccant. Compared with other desiccants on the market, it not only has a fast adsorption speed and high adsorption capacity, but is also non-toxic, colorless, odorless, non-contact corrosive, and non-environmentally polluting. It can be used for food packaging and is harmless to the human body.

3. Use packaging materials with good sealing properties:

Choose packaging materials with good sealing performance, such as aluminum foil bags or vacuum packaging, and seal the headphones together with Power Pak anti-mold chips or iHeir anti-mold desiccant to prevent external moisture from entering the package and form stable and long-lasting anti-mildew protection.

4. Control the storage environment:

Mold on headphones not only seriously affects product quality, but may also cause consumers to have negative comments about the brand. By adding iHeir Power Pak strong anti-mold chips or iHeir anti-mold desiccant to the packaging, long-lasting anti-mold protection can be provided to ensure that the headphones remain mold-free during global transportation and warehousing. This not only allows the product to be put on the shelves on time, but also wins a good market reputation for the company.

iHeir's innovative anti-mold and antibacterial solutions has been widely used in more than 3,000 products in many countries, successfully solving the problems of mildew and odor in shoes, bags, furniture, bamboo and wood products, gifts, packaging supplies, sporting goods, coatings, electronic products and other products, providing effective protection for the production, storage and transportation of goods.
