MiniPax ®
Sorbent Packets
MiniPax® are compact, extremely durable,
non-dusting sorbent packets which take
up little space in packaging, yet have high
moisture adsorbing capacity. MiniPax packets
are offered with a variety of sorbent blends
and sizes to meet specific packaging needs for
a wide variety of packaging applications.
Superior packaging material - MiniPax
packets are formed of welded, uncoated
Tyvek, an extremely tough and durable sheet
of spunbonded HDPE fibers.
High strength – MiniPax has high tear
strength in all directions and is virtually
puncture-proof to eliminate risk of leakage
and product contamination.
High WVTR, controlled porosity –
A high water vapor transmission rate
(WVTR) makes the material ideal for sorbent
packets. Porosity of the envelope is closely
controlled during the manufacturing process
to assure consistency batch after batch. This
eliminates any variation in the allowable
handling time of a MiniPax packet.
Non-dusting, non-linting – The dense
packing of the fine Tyvek fibers forms a tight
barrier to particulate matter and prevents
sorbent dusting. MiniPax packets have a
stable, abrasion resistant surface and are not
subject to linting.

Wet strength – MiniPax is unaffected by
water or moisture and is as strong wet as it is
dry. It will not rot or mildew.
Odor and moisture adsorption – MiniPax
is permeable to odors and gases, thus a MiniPax
packet containing an appropriate sorbent blend
can be used for both odor and moisture protection.
FDA and USDA Status – The medical
grade Tyvek used in MiniPax construction
is chemically inert and can be used in food
packaging applications. MiniPax are supported
by a Type III DMF, use 21 CFR-compliant
materials, and are suitable for use in all
regulated product packaging.

Efficient package design
Compact – The low profile and compact shape of MiniPax
packets saves space and displaces a minimum amount of
product. Its flat contour eliminates any potential confusion
with a capsule or a pill.
Maximum surface exposure – The exceptionally narrow
seal skirt on only two ends gives MiniPax packets an unusually
large adsorptive surface area for its overall size.
Integral window – An integral transparent strip permits
observation of the contained adsorbent and allows effective
use of indicating desiccants to show when moisture has
been adsorbed and desiccant should be replaced. MiniPax
indicating silica gel (ISG)
packets are not intended for
use in food or pharmaceutical
packaging.
Choose the right
sorbent blend for
your needs
MiniPax can be produced
with a wide choice of sorbents
and sorbent blends to meet your
specific needs. Blends of odor and
moisture adsorbent compounds
may be furnished when both odor and
moisture protection is desired.
Multiple Sizes
MiniPax are produced in sizes from 0.25 grams to 28 grams.
Larger sizes are possible with multi-packet production runs.
Multisorb Technologies offers even more for your
packaging applications.
MiniPax Sorbent Packets are part of a full line of sorbent

use in food or pharmaceutical packaging.
• Uniform adsorptive pore size makes it an
excellent getter for water
• Added capacity to adsorb organic odorcausing
molecules
• Produced by the controlled drying of montmorillonite,
a naturally occurring mineral
• Essentially non-swelling
• Can both take on and give up moisture
without deterioration
• Foremost getter for organic molecules and
sulfur-bearing compounds
• Primary application is odor removal
• Mixtures of clay or silica gel with
