VCI Bags – Corrosion Inhibitor Poly Bags for Metal Parts
VCI Bags from VCI2000 provide reliable, long‑term corrosion protection for ferrous and non‑ferrous metal parts during storage, shipping, and export packaging. Each bag is manufactured with high‑performance vapor corrosion inhibitor technology that forms an invisible protective layer on metal surfaces, preventing rust without the need for oils, greases, or desiccants.
Our VCI Bags are available in flat, zip‑lock, and custom sizes, with thickness options from 2 mil to 6 mil. They are ideal for manufacturers, machine shops, automotive suppliers, aerospace components, and any operation that requires clean, dry, and cost‑effective corrosion protection.
What Are VCI Bags?
VCI Bags are polyethylene bags infused with vapor corrosion inhibitors. Once sealed, the VCI molecules activate and bond to metal surfaces, creating a protective barrier that stops moisture, oxygen, and contaminants from causing rust. This protection works automatically and does not require additional rust‑preventive coatings.
VCI Bags are clean, safe, and leave no residue, making them ideal for precision‑machined parts, bearings, gears, tools, and assemblies.

How VCI Technology Works
Once a metal part is placed inside the VCI Bag and sealed, the corrosion inhibitors vaporize and attach to the metal surface at a molecular level. This protective layer blocks moisture, oxygen, and contaminants from reacting with the metal. When the bag is opened, the VCI molecules dissipate, leaving the part clean and ready for immediate use or assembly.
