When was BOSELON® created?

Aicello Corporation introduced Boselon® as the world’s first Volatile Corrosion Inhibiting film in 1969. It has a proven track record of more than half a century of being the ideal rust prevention packaging method for metals. It can withstand severe shipping conditions and meet long-term storage needs.

Where is AICELLO Corporation located?

Aicello Corporation’s American headquarters is in Princeton, New Jersey. There is also an office located in Dublin, Ohio. In addition, Aicello has offices in Asia, Europe and other parts of North America.

Boselon® has more than an 80% market share in Japan and is used by most Japanese automotive original equipment manufacturers. Its market share is growing throughout North America.

How does BOSELON® film prevent rust and corrosion?

The volatile corrosion inhibitors encapsulated in Boselon® continuously vaporize from the polyethylene film. It forms an active protective molecular membrane on the metal surface and effectively prevents the formation of rust.

What types of metal does BOSELON® best protect?

Boselon® VCI products are specifically designed to effectively work on cast iron, iron, galvanized steel, aluminum and copper.

Are there industries best suited for BOSELON® film?

Yes, Boselon’s® corrosion inhibitor VCI is frequently used in the automotive, linear rail, heavy machinery, foundry and casting, metal stamping, and international export industries. It’s ideal for use on automated packaging lines.

Are there multiple BOSELON® VCI products?

Yes, clients can choose from a variety of film grades based upon the type of metal and its application. Metals include cast iron, iron, galvanized steel, aluminum and copper.

Does BOSELON® offer specialized VCI packaging options?

Yes, Boselon® offers optimal VCI packaging solutions to meet its clients’ diverse needs. Material forms include flat bags, gusted bags, square bottom bags, individually cut sheets, and both perforated and non-perforated rolls. Please let your rust prevention specialist know if you need another form.

How do BOSELON® clients immediately know if their orders arrived without rust and corrosion?

Boselon’s® clear film enables clients to visually inspect the contents of the metal products upon arrival with clear VCI Film. Unlike with other VCI Film products or VCI Papers, there is no need to open the sealed environment and expose the products to the elements. Clients can confidently use the product for immediate production or place them in long-term storage.

Is BOSELON® cost efficient for its clients?

Boselon’s® high quality VCI film and packaging reduces its clients’ total costs. It’s corrosion inhibition and packaging are completed in a single process, which minimizes labor costs and maximizes productivity. In addition, with Boselon, there is no rust so there are no frustrating expenses for disrupted production schedules, replacement costs and third-party audits.

We request that potential clients complete the Rust Prevention Diagnostic Form to learn about your specific needs. After the form is received and reviewed, a rust prevention specialist will contact you. The specialist will personally work with you to provide the best custom solutions to meet your anti-corrosion packaging needs.

Rust Prevention Diagnostic Form

Is BOSELON® film recyclable?

Yes, Boselon® films are recyclable.

Does BOSELON® have a Technical Center?

Yes, the Boselon® Technical Center is a dedicated facility where AICELLO continues the research and development practices that brought the world Boselon®. The center is continually improving the BOSELON® product while adding additional grades for each industry that requires vapor corrosion inhibitors.

In more detail, what is BOSELON®’s corrosion inhibiting system?

The volatile corrosion inhibitors encapsulated in BOSELON® vaporize from the film continuously. These vci molecules condense and form an active protective molecular membrane of corrosion inhibitors on the metal surface inside of the barrier packaging.

If moisture condensation occurs inside of a package, vaporized corrosion inhibitors are readily absorbed in the moisture, yielding a corrosion inhibiting effect.

When humid air from outside of the package permeates through the film, encapsulated corrosion inhibitors in the film are absorbed by the moisture. The moisture containing the corrosion inhibitors condenses on the metal surfaces and forms a VCI molecular membrane.
