Parts rusting in-process in humid atmosphere

We have done Indirect/Direct evaporative cooling for a Automobile components Manufacturing Facility and the RH of 65% and Dry bulb of 28 °C is maintained and the products are rusting within two shifts of eight hours/shift. How it can be minimised/prevented?

Your question is a little vague, Sridhar, and it sounds rather impractical to make the parts more humidity resistant with a rust preventative or by changing their material. So it's hard to suggest anything beyond: "Reduce the humidity!". Good luck.
