Integra Boost Humidity Sticks 80mm Are the Same Gel in a Different Shape
A stick is not a different product. It is the same fill in a shape that fits where a flat sachet cannot go. Inside is the plant-based glycerin and water blend used across the whole Boost range, salt-free and non-toxic. The membrane is the same spill-proof, tear-resistant material. What changes is geometry. At 80 mm long and narrow, it slides into a tube or a slim container where a flat packet would fold or block the opening. This one holds 55% RH, the drier storage tier. Integra also makes a longer 110 mm stick, which runs at 62% RH and ships 1,200 sticks to a master case.
Where the 1500 Count Bulk Case Stops Being the Right Call
Two limits come with this configuration. There is no individual overwrap and no humidity indicator card. That means the sticks start trading moisture with the room as soon as the case is opened. A case gets worked down in one session rather than left standing on a bench. It also means nothing on a stick tells the person at the far end when it is finished. On a packaging line neither matters, because the stick goes from case to tube in seconds. On a shelf both matter, and there is no overwrapped version of the stick to fall back on. The last limit is quantity. Fifteen hundred sticks is a line quantity, and a small operation will hold it a long time.
Key Features
- Narrow 80mm Format: Slides into a tube or slim container where a flat sachet would fold or block it.
- Same Fill as Every Boost Pack: Plant-based glycerin and water, salt-free, behind the same spill-proof membrane.
- 55% RH Setpoint: The drier of the two storage tiers, which suits long holds and dense material.
- Two-Way Humidity Control: Releases moisture into dry air and absorbs it back out of damp air.
- No Individual Overwrap: Sticks ship loose, which is what brings the per-stick cost down.
- No Indicator Cards: Nothing on a stick reads its state, so replacement is scheduled rather than seen.
- 1,500 Sticks Per Master Case: One case, double overwrapped around the whole lot rather than around each stick.
- Work a Case in One Session: Loose sticks start on air contact, so an opened case is run down rather than parked.
- 110mm Version Also Stocked: The longer stick runs at 62% RH and ships 1,200 to a case.

How Is a Stick Different From a Packet?
Only in shape. The fill, the membrane and the two-way control are the same; the stick fits narrow containers a sachet cannot.
Why Are There No Indicator Cards?
This is the bulk configuration. Cards and wrappers are what a retail pack pays for, and dropping both cuts the per-stick cost.
What Other Stick Sizes Are There?
A 110 mm stick at 62% RH, packed 1,200 to a case. This one is the 80 mm at 55% RH.
How Should an Opened Case Be Handled?
Work through it in one session. Loose sticks start on air contact, so an open case keeps running whether or not it is used.
