Boveda 62% Hygro-Pack: Osmosis Technology with Natural Salts for Stable Humidity
Boveda works on a physical principle that requires no external energy: osmosis with natural salts and purified water automatically regulates relative humidity to exactly 62%. The pack releases moisture when the environment is too dry and absorbs it when it becomes too humid. This bidirectional regulation is the key difference from simple humidifier pads or passive gel packs, which only work in one direction.
The 67g pack is designed for containers with up to 500g of content. In a plastic humidor it supplies up to 50 cigars, in a wooden humidor up to 25 cigars per pack. The difference in capacity is explained by the porosity of wood: wood absorbs and releases moisture itself, which uses up additional pack capacity.

Why 62% Relative Humidity Is the Right Value for Storage
The value of 62% relative humidity is widely recognised as the proven benchmark for storing tobacco products and sensitive herbs. If humidity is too low, tobacco leaves and herbs dry out, lose their aroma and become brittle. If humidity is too high, mould and flavour loss become a risk. The Boveda 62% pack hits exactly the range in which most materials best preserve their sensory properties.
Boveda was founded in the USA and has established itself as the market leader for precise humidity regulation in the tobacco, cigar and herb industry. The packs are used worldwide by humidor manufacturers and professional storage experts. This is also reflected in the amount of active material used: 67g of the active mixture ensures the pack remains active significantly longer than smaller variants.
The Hygro-Pack is a single-use product and cannot be refilled. When it feels completely firm and no longer has any soft spots, its capacity is exhausted. Regular replacement every two to four months ensures that storage conditions remain consistently constant.
