tropic pack
A special type of packing to protect explosives from deteriorating when subjected to hot, humid atmospheric conditions, such as in tropical areas. The explosives, after being sealed with paraffin, are packed in cartons, which are then wrapped in waxed paper and also sealed with paraffin. The filled cartons are then placed inside a satchel-type case liner of bitumen-laminated paper reinforced with sisal fiber and completely sealed with a waterproof adhesive.
