What to know locally in Richards Bay

Exporters and importers shipping through the port use silica gel and container desiccant strips to cut condensation inside sealed boxes on long voyages. At home, tubs and hanging bags help in wardrobes and shoe cupboards, and a humidity meter shows whether a room stays above 60 percent. Air purifiers come up for smoke from cane burning in the surrounding area, though they do not dry the air.

Damp and humidity in Richards Bay

Richards Bay is warm and wet for much of the year, with a coastal climate that stays humid even in winter, and with rain concentrated in the summer months. It is a port and industrial town first: the deepwater harbour handles coal, minerals and timber products, and heavy industry sits around the bay. That puts a lot of weight on storage, containers and plant rooms that need dry air, and on offices and workshops with older air conditioning. Houses in Meerensee, Arboretum and Birdswood get mould in bathrooms and on walls behind furniture, and Empangeni, a short drive inland, is a market town with similar humid problems.

Who asks for humidifiers around Richards Bay, most often first:

  • Factories and food plants: humidity control where static or dry air affects a process or product
  • Warehouses, archives and storage: humidity for stored paper, wood or instruments that crack when dry
  • Homeowners and tenants: a cool mist unit in a bedroom or baby's room through the dry winter
