Description

Calcium Hypochlorite is a powerful inorganic compound widely recognized for its potent oxidizing and disinfecting properties. Its primary value lies in providing a stable, high-available-chlorine source for sanitation and water treatment applications across numerous industries. This makes it an essential chemical for municipal water authorities, industrial cooling systems, and manufacturers requiring reliable bleaching or disinfection agents. The product is supplied as a white granular or tablet form, designed for controlled and efficient use.

Application

• Drinking Water & Wastewater Treatment: Primary disinfectant for municipal and industrial water systems to eliminate pathogens and control algae.
• Swimming Pool & Spa Sanitation: Used in granular or tablet form for maintaining clean, safe, and algae-free recreational water.
• Industrial Process Water: Disinfection of cooling tower water, process water in food & beverage, and power generation to prevent biofouling and legionella.
• Bleaching Agent: Employed in the textile and pulp & paper industries for bleaching cotton, linen, and wood pulp.
• Sanitizer in Food Processing: Surface and equipment sanitization in compliance with food safety protocols (use of approved grades).
• General Disinfection & Hygiene: Used for sanitizing surfaces, controlling odors, and in disaster relief for emergency water purification.

Quality Control

Our Calcium Hypochlorite is manufactured under strict quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and performance reliability. Key parameters such as available chlorine content, moisture, and stability are rigorously tested. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting purity and compliance with relevant industry specifications are provided with each shipment. We support customers requiring material that aligns with specific regulatory or application standards.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight, heat sources, and incompatible materials such as acids, organic compounds, and reducing agents. Due to its strong oxidizing nature, keep separate from flammable and combustible materials. The storage area should be dedicated to chemicals and kept clean to prevent contamination.
