When it comes to automotive manufacturing and supply chains, corrosion is the silent killer of quality and reliability. Rust on brake rotors, engine components, fasteners, or transmission parts can result in costly returns, damaged reputations, and operational delays. That’s where VCI (Vapor Corrosion Inhibitor) bags come in—offering a simple, clean, and highly effective solution to rust prevention.

At Atlantic Poly, Inc., we provide industry-leading VCI bags that help automotive manufacturers and suppliers extend the life, integrity, and performance of metal parts throughout storage and transit.

What Are VCI Bags?

VCI bags are specially engineered polyethylene bags infused with vapor corrosion inhibitors. When metal parts are sealed inside, the VCI molecules volatilize and settle on metal surfaces, forming a protective, invisible barrier against moisture, oxygen, and other corrosive elements.

This technology prevents rust without the need for oils, sprays, or messy coatings, making it ideal for precision auto parts and clean handling environments.

Why the Automotive Industry Depends on VCI Packaging

Here’s why VCI bags are essential in the packaging process for automotive parts:

1. Rust Prevention During Shipping & Storage

From Tier 1 suppliers to OEMs, parts often travel across states—or oceans. VCI bags offer 360-degree protection against rust and oxidation, even in humid or unpredictable climates.

2. Cleaner, Safer Packaging

No need for greasy rust-prevention coatings that require post-cleaning before assembly. VCI bags keep parts clean, dry, and ready to use right out of the package.

3. Extended Shelf Life

VCI bags from Atlantic Poly help preserve parts during long-term storage, reducing the risk of corrosion-related waste or damage.

4. Cost Savings & Efficiency

VCI bags lower total packaging costs by eliminating secondary protective materials like desiccants, grease, and additional wrapping. They're also recyclable, helping reduce environmental impact.

5. Custom Sizes for Any Part

Whether you're protecting a handful of fasteners or an engine block, Atlantic Poly provides custom VCI bag solutions tailored to your part dimensions and shipping requirements.

Ideal for:

• Brake systems & calipers
• Transmission gears
• Engine blocks & cylinder heads
• Fasteners, bearings, springs
• Suspension & steering components
• Trusted by Automotive Professionals Nationwide

Atlantic Poly proudly partners with leading automotive suppliers across the U.S., providing high-performance VCI packaging solutions that help protect critical parts from corrosion-related failure.
