The ThoMar OHG dehumidifier is a highly effective product that has been specially developed to protect against misted-up windows and moisture damage in the car. The silica gel pads it contains remove moisture from the vehicle interior and thus not only ensure dry windows, but also prevent mold, rust and unpleasant odors. The high absorption capacity and long duration of action of the silica gel make the dehumidifier particularly effective. It can also be regenerated and reused, making it a sustainable solution. The fact that ThoMar products are manufactured in Germany and regularly certified to ISO 9001 underlines the high product quality.
