Sodium Chloride Supplier — Extra Pure, Reagent and Standard Grade NaCl
NaCl Sodium Chloride · Assay 99.0 – 100.5%
High-purity sodium chloride in three grades: extra pure for pharmaceutical and food-analysis work, laboratory reagent with a full trace-anion panel, and a NIST-traceable volumetric standard for standardising silver nitrate solutions. For bulk industrial and de-icing salt see our salt family pages.

Grades & Chemical Analysis
Three grades separated by what is measured, not by how white the crystal looks. Extra pure covers the pharmacopoeial limits; the reagent grade adds a full trace-anion panel; the standard material is a certified reference lot. Select a grade to view its full analysis.

The volumetric standard is a certified reference material, so its assay and uncertainty are lot-specific by design and are stated on the certificate rather than as a specification band. Unit-less limits are transcribed as they appear on the source certificate.
Bespoke Supply
Need bulk industrial or de-icing salt instead?
These are the refined and reagent grades. For rock, solar and washed industrial salt in bulk tonnages, and for compacted tablet salt, see the salt family pages — or tell us the tonnage and grade you need and we will quote it directly.
Applications
At this purity sodium chloride stops being a commodity and becomes a reagent — bought for what is absent from it rather than what is in it.
Pharmaceutical Manufacture
Saline solutions, IV fluids and dialysis concentrate.
Analytical Chemistry
Standardisation of silver nitrate and argentometric titration.
Laboratory Reagent
General bench reagent and buffer preparation.
Biotechnology & Media
Buffers, cell culture media and protein purification.
Instrument Calibration
Conductivity and salinity meter calibration solutions.
Food Analysis
Reference material in food and beverage testing laboratories.
Electrophoresis & Molecular Biology
Ionic strength adjustment in electrophoresis buffers.
Cosmetics & Personal Care
High-purity salt for saline sprays and formulations.
Chlor-Alkali Feedstock
High-purity brine where membrane cells demand low calcium.
Packaging, Logistics & Trading Terms
How we pack, certify and ship high-purity sodium chloride. Terms can be adapted by agreement — tell us what your operation needs.
- Minimum Order Quantity
- Pack sizes from 1 kg upwards for reagent grades; 1 × 20 ft container for bagged extra pure material. Trial quantities available for qualification.
- Packaging
- Extra pure grade in 25 kg bags or 1 MT jumbo bags. Reagent grades in 1 kg, 5 kg and 10 kg polyethylene containers; reference material in 100 g glass.
- Incoterms & Loading Ports
- EXW, FOB, CFR and CIF (Incoterms® 2020). Standard loading at Bandar Abbas and Bandar Imam Khomeini; other ports by arrangement.
- Quality Certification
- Certificate of Analysis with every lot. The volumetric standard carries a certified assay and assigned uncertainty traceable to NIST SRMs. SGS / Bureau Veritas inspection at buyer’s cost.
- Lead Time
- 7–14 days for standard grades after order confirmation; 15–25 days for pharmacopoeial packs or specially packed material.
- Storage & Handling
- Store below +30 °C in tightly closed containers in a dry place. Sodium chloride is mildly hygroscopic and will cake if bags take on moisture; for reagent and reference grades keep containers sealed between uses so the loss-on-drying figure stays inside 0.5%.
Certificate of Analysis
A batch-specific CoA is issued with every shipment. Third-party inspection by SGS, Bureau Veritas or an inspector of your choice can be arranged at the buyer’s cost.
