About Sodium Bisulphite (Industrial Grade)

Sodium Bisulphite is widely used as a reducing agent and preservative in various industrial processes. It plays a critical role in water treatment by removing excess chlorine and oxygen, thus protecting pipelines and machinery from oxidative damage. In the textile industry, it is employed to remove excess dye and as a bleaching agent, enhancing the quality and durability of fabrics. Handling Sodium Bisulphite requires precautions including storage in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area to prevent decomposition and moisture absorption. It is typically supplied in 25 kg bags suitable for industrial use and bulk applications.
