In footwear manufacturing, humidity is a critical factor that affects material quality and product durability. When moisture levels exceed the allowable threshold, adhesives lose bonding strength, leather–fabric–PU materials deform, molds become moldy, and finished products are prone to delamination and mildew during storage. This leads to increased costs for error correction and preservation, especially during humid seasons.

To address these issues, many footwear factories have chosen Kosmen industrial dehumidifiers thanks to their stable operation, precise humidity control, and suitability for both production areas and finished-goods warehouses.

Project information

Client: Vinh Phu Shoes Joint Stock Company
Location: No. 2187A Hung Vuong Street, Viet Tri Ward, Phu Tho Province, Vietnam
Purpose of installation: Ensure product quality throughout production, storage, packaging, and shipment.
Equipment used: Kosmen Industrial Dehumidifier KM-150S

Benefits of using Kosmen dehumidifiers in footwear production & storage

Maintain stable humidity levels, preventing slow adhesive drying and reducing outsole - upper delamination.
Limit mold growth and unpleasant odors on leather, EVA, PU - materials highly sensitive to moisture.
Prevent deformation of molds and raw materials, ensuring consistent shoe form throughout production.
Protect finished goods in storage from stains and mildew, securing quality before shipment.
Reduce material loss and minimize defective products.
Optimize production line efficiency, especially in humidity-sensitive areas such as adhesive application, sole pressing, and finishing.

Customer feedback

Representatives from Vinh Phu Footwear shared that before using dehumidifiers, the factory often faced issues such as:

Slow adhesive drying, affecting productivity
Mold appearing on stored leather materials
Form deformation on finished products during high-humidity days

After installing the Kosmen KM-150S, these problems were almost completely resolved. Humidity in the workshop is now consistently stable, the adhesive-bonding area operates more efficiently, and the defect rate has significantly decreased. The company highly values the machine’s fast dehumidifying capability, stable performance, and energy efficiency - perfectly aligning with the needs of footwear production.
