Our Sodium Hydroxide (Caustic Soda Flakes) is a high-purity, industrial-grade alkali used extensively across multiple industries. Manufactured under strict quality control parameters, our caustic soda meets international standards and specifications.
Also known as lye or caustic soda, sodium hydroxide is a highly versatile chemical with a wide range of industrial applications. It is a white, solid, highly caustic metallic base and alkali salt. We supply caustic soda in flake form, which is preferred for ease of handling and dissolution.
Every batch undergoes rigorous quality testing in certified laboratories to ensure consistency and compliance with specifications. We provide complete documentation including Certificate of Analysis (COA), Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS), and Technical Data Sheet (TDS) with every shipment.
