About Sodium Metabisulphite in South Africa
Sodium metabisulphite is a white crystalline powder that dissolves in water to release sulphur dioxide, acting as a reducing agent, antioxidant and preservative. It is used as a food preservative and antioxidant, a dechlorination agent in water treatment, an anti-chlor and bleaching aid in textiles and leather, and a reducing agent in process chemistry.
Zentish Exim supplies sodium metabisulphite sourced from qualified Indian producers, with certificates of analysis and safety data sheets. Food and technical grades are available. Because it releases sulphur dioxide and is an irritant, handling notes accompany every consignment.
South Africa is the gateway to SADC, with NRCS oversight on regulated chemical imports and SA-GHS aligned to UN-GHS. Durban, Cape Town and Port Elizabeth are the primary ports; ocean freight runs 18-25 days.
