Humidity Indicator Cards

Stop wondering if your products are protected.

Humidity Indicator Cards provide a simple, low-cost way to monitor moisture levels inside barrier packaging, helping you quickly confirm that your packaging is performing as intended. A clear color change instantly shows relative humidity, so potential moisture issues are identified before they become costly problems. Suitable for electronics, medical, military, and industrial applications, including MIL-SPEC (MIL-I-8835) environments, these cards offer hands-free monitoring and are available in cobalt-free and cobalt dichloride-free options that meet EU REACH requirements, giving you confidence, compliance, and control without added complexity.

Moisture Problems Don’t Always Announce Themselves

You seal the package. Add the desiccant. Ship it out.

But what happens inside that barrier packaging weeks or months later?

Without visibility, excess humidity can quietly creep in, compromising sensitive components long before damage is obvious. By the time corrosion, failure, or non-compliance is discovered, it’s already too late, and far more expensive than it needed to be.

Know Your Humidity—At a Glance

Desiccare’s Humidity Cards provide a simple, visual way to quantify relative humidity levels inside sealed packaging. No batteries. No calibration. No interpretation headaches. Just clear color changes that tell you exactly what’s happening inside.

What Changes When You Can See the Risk

Instant confirmation that moisture levels are within spec

Faster inspections with no special tools

Greater confidence in long-term storage and shipping

Reduced product failures tied to humidity exposure

Easier compliance with MIL-SPEC and JEDEC standards

Addressing Key Concerns

We understand your concerns. Here's what you need to know.

We already use desiccants, do we need this too?

Desiccants control moisture. HICs confirm they’re working. Together, they close the loop.

Are these accurate enough for inspections?

Yes. They’re designed specifically for regulated environments and industry standards.

Do cobalt-free cards still perform?

Absolutely. Our cobalt-free options meet performance and EU REACH requirements.

Is this overkill for smaller packages?

Not at all. HICs scale effortlessly from small packages to large systems.

The Hands-Free Solution

  • SIMPLE

    Spots turn from blue to pink to indicate the current RH level.

  • VERSATILE

    Can be used in conjunction with a desiccant for peace of mind.

  • AFFORDABLE

    The low-cost way to protect inside any type of barrier packaging.

Stop Guessing. Start Knowing.

If moisture matters, and it usually does, visibility isn’t optional.

Humidity Cards give you instant insight into conditions inside your packaging. A quick visual check confirms whether moisture levels are within safe limits. So you get certainty and control exactly where it counts.

Humidity Indicator Cards visually display relative humidity levels inside sealed packaging. They give you immediate confirmation of whether moisture levels remain within safe limits, without opening the package.

Each card contains color-changing spots that respond to changes in humidity. As moisture levels rise, the spots change color to clearly indicate the current relative humidity inside the package.

Yes, these cards support MIL-I-8835 applications and meet relevant industry standards. They are widely used in military, electronics, medical, and industrial packaging environments.

We offer cobalt dichloride free and fully cobalt-free humidity indicator cards. These options meet EU REACH requirements while maintaining reliable and accurate humidity indication.

Humidity Indicator Cards are typically designed for single use to ensure accuracy and reliability. This eliminates uncertainty caused by reused or compromised indicators.

Yes, using humidity indicator cards alongside desiccants provides complete moisture protection. The desiccant controls moisture, while the card verifies performance inside the package.
