Wondering how to manage moisture without expensive gear? Applications engineer Dan Dettmers explains how you can improve your facility humidity problem by identifying and addressing the five primary sources of moisture. Watch the video to learn how sealing leaks and managing processes can save you significant time, money, and resources on your dehumidification needs.
Stabilize Humidity When Precision Matters
Moisture is the number one enemy for manufacturers of natural supplements. As humidity levels rise, gel caps deteriorate and powder begins to stick to equipment, form clumps – completely disrupting production. There’s nothing more frustrating than having to waste product. But when high humidity hits sensitive active ingredients, that’s the end result.
Improve Handling Time & Prevent Hydrolyzing
Quest Trotec desiccant dehumidifiers allow you to maintain a precise humidity level – 24/7 – with the option to control critical variables such as grain depression. Our commercial dehumidifiers, which operate in a wide range of temperatures and at extreme dew points, mean more output and less downtime.

Excess moisture is a primary cause of wasted product and inefficient production in the gelatin capsule industry. High humidity leads to sticky capsules, powder clumping, and extended drying times. Learn how to maintain your facility at optimal relative humidity levels and why desiccant dehumidification is the best solution to protect your sensitive pharmaceutical products.


Gummies have become the rock stars of the nutraceutical industry, but managing humidity is vital for success. Improper moisture levels lead to sticky products or case hardening, causing significant losses. By controlling your environment with desiccant dehumidifiers and monitoring infiltration, you can optimize drying times and ensure consistent quality for your growing gummy production line.
