Desiccant Card: wholesale price
A typical US business buyer pays a median of $0.03 per unit at small order quantities, falling to $0.005 at volume, on a typical 21-day lead time. These medians come from published supplier pricing. Treat them as a starting point for a sourcing conversation rather than a binding quote.

What moves the price
For desiccant card, the drivers are absorption capacity, unit size, food-grade certification — the same item can land at either end of the band depending on how those are specified.
Published wholesale pricing for small desiccant-format units suggests low per-unit costs at scale, with U.S. wholesale listings showing roughly $0.02-$0.20 per unit depending on size and pack format, and bulk/FOB manufacturer quotes falling to fractions of a cent for very high volumes. For desiccant cards specifically, the main cost drivers are absorbent fill weight/capacity, custom print/construction, and certification requirements; custom or non-stock specifications are typically quoted with 2-4 week lead times, while stock wholesale routes ship much faster. The most realistic sourcing routes are U.S. distributors for short runs and import/OEM factory quotes for 25k+ volumes, where landed-equivalent pricing can materially undercut domestic wholesale.
