Caustic Soda chemically known as Sodium Hydroxide is powerful, highly corrosive alkaline compound used across numerous sectors, from chemical manufacturing to water treatment, and notably within the food industry. Available in various convenient forms, including Caustic Soda flakes, pellets, and liquid solutions (often 50% concentration), providing flexibility for different application requirements. Key applications are versatile. Food Processing: Utilised in the food industry for processes such as fruit and vegetable peeling, chocolate and cocoa processing, caramel colouring production, poultry scalding, and thickening ice cream and also preferred as a cleaning agent in sanitation processes for food equipment (Clean-In-Place or CIP systems). Industrial Use: Essential for pH control, neutralisation of acidic waste streams, paper production, detergent manufacturing, and as a vital reactive intermediate in countless industrial chemical syntheses. Caustic Soda producers often refer to it as Sodium Hydrate, White Caustic, or simply Soda. We are the leading Caustic Soda supplier worldwide in various grades, ensuring comprehensive regulatory support & CoA traceability with global supply capability with reliable lead time.
