Product type
Sodium chloride, commonly known as table salt, is an inorganic compound composed of sodium and chloride ions. It is typically produced through the evaporation of seawater or mined from salt deposits. Sodium chloride is essential in various industrial processes and is widely used for its preservative and flavoring properties in food production.

When selecting sodium chloride, consider the required purity level based on your application, as higher purity grades are needed for food and pharmaceutical uses. Additionally, specify the desired granule size or form (e.g., crystals, flakes) depending on your processing needs. Certifications for food-grade or pharmaceutical-grade sodium chloride may also be necessary, so inquire about relevant standards when requesting a quote.
