Our VCI Anti-Corrosion bubble wrap, also known as VCI Anti-Corrosion air cushion film or VCI Anti-Corrosion bubble wrap, is a versatile, shock-absorbing and anti-corrosion protective film specially developed for the safe packaging of metal products during transport, storage and shipping. Thanks to the combination of air-filled bubbles and integrated VCI molecules, this bubble wrap not only offers protection against bumps and scratches, but also actively prevents rust formation and corrosion on metal parts. VCI bubble wrap is widely used in the metal industry, machine building, automotive, logistics, export packaging and industrial storage.

Whether it concerns delicate metal components, steel parts, tools, high-precision parts, electronics with metal elements or larger metal goods: with VCI bubble wrap you choose durable, safe and active protection against both mechanical damage and corrosion.

Key features

• Material and composition:

VCI bubble wrap is made of polyethylene (PE) with air-filled bubbles, enriched with Volatile Corrosion Inhibitor molecules (VCI molecules), also known as anti-corrosion molecules. These active molecules slowly evaporate in the closed packaging and form an invisible protective layer on metal surfaces. The double layer of PE protects against impact, while the air chambers provide buffering and pressure distribution.

• Active corrosion protection (VCI technology):

The integrated VCI molecules spread throughout the packaging and adhere to the metal surface. This creates a molecular protective layer that prevents rust, oxidation and corrosion — without the need for oils, greases or manual anti-corrosion agents. The effect starts immediately and remains active as long as the product is packaged.

• Excellent shock and scratch protection:

The bubble wrap absorbs vibrations, bumps and movements during transport. This keeps metal parts free from damage, dents, scratches and surface wear.

• Flexible and easy to process:

VCI bubble wrap is flexible and easy to shape around products with unusual shapes, sharp edges or complex contours. This means that almost all metal components can be packaged safely and corrosion-free.

• Lightweight and cost-saving:

Due to its low weight, VCI bubble wrap hardly increases the shipping weight. At the same time, you combine packaging, cushioning and corrosion prevention in one product, which saves extra materials and costs.

• Protection against moisture and dust:

The polyethylene structure provides a light barrier against moisture, dirt and dust, while VCI protection prevents external factors from causing corrosion.

• Filling material and intermediate layer:

In addition to packaging metal parts, VCI bubble wrap is ideal as an anti-corrosion intermediate layer or filling material in packaging where metal products should not touch each other.

• Various applications:

Suitable for small metal components, larger parts, precision parts, electronics with metal parts, automotive parts, machine parts, industrial goods, steel products, tools and export packaging.

Typical applications

• Wrapping metal parts such as steel, iron, aluminium*, copper* and alloys (VCI suitability depends on type, varies per alloy).
• Shipping and long-term storage of metal parts, components and tools.
• Export packaging where protection against moisture and corrosion is crucial.
• Use as an anti-corrosion intermediate layer in crates, boxes and packaging.
• Protection of precision parts and machine parts during transport.
• Wrapping larger metal objects or products with complex shapes.
• Industrial storage and logistics where rust prevention is necessary.
