Overview

About Sodium Metabisulphite in UAE

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.

The UAE is a re-export hub for the Middle East and Africa; imports are overseen by ESMA/GSO with a 5% GCC external tariff (0% inside free zones). Jebel Ali and Khalifa Port are the gateways; air freight runs 3-5 days and ocean 8-15 days from Indian west-coast ports.
