What Are Caustic Soda Pearls?
Because the pearl shape is consistent, caustic soda pearls dose more precisely than flakes and avoid the bridging and localized overheating that flakes can cause during dissolution. For an importer or distributor, that consistency means fewer handling complaints, cleaner end-products, and simpler warehouse storage — the spherical granules stay free-flowing as long as the bags remain sealed and dry.

Dangerous Goods Classification & Safe Handling
Caustic soda pearls are corrosive and hygroscopic. Importers must plan for Class 8 handling at destination.
| Classification | Details |
|---|---|
| UN Number | UN 1823 |
| Proper shipping name | Sodium Hydroxide, Solid |
| Hazard class | Class 8 — Corrosive |
| Packing group | II |
| IMDG / ADR / RID | Class 8 compliant |
| GHS signal word | DANGER |
Handling essentials: use chemical-resistant PPE (gloves, goggles/face shield, apron, boots); never add water to NaOH — always add NaOH slowly to water; store sealed in a cool, dry, ventilated area at 15–35 °C and below 60% humidity; keep off the floor on pallets; and segregate from acids and amphoteric metals (aluminium, zinc, tin). See our caustic soda storage & safety guide for full procedures.

Caustic Soda Pearls — Buyer FAQ
Caustic soda pearls are a solid form of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) supplied as uniform white spherical granules with a minimum purity of 99%. Compared with flakes, the pearl form offers low dust, free flow, fast and even dissolution, and accurate dosing, which makes it the preferred solid NaOH for export and automated industrial use.
The standard minimum order quantity for caustic soda pearls is 20 MT — one full 20-foot container (FCL). Volume pricing applies for 3+ containers. Contact our export team for a volume schedule and a confirmed FOB or CIF quote.
Caustic soda pearls are packed in 25 kg laminated PP woven bags lined with polyethylene, or in 1,000 kg jumbo bags (FIBC), on pallets if required. A standard 20-foot container holds approximately 25 MT (about 24 MT when palletized). All packaging is moisture-proof and IMDG-compliant for Class 8 corrosive sea freight.
Every shipment includes a Commercial Invoice, Packing List, Bill of Lading, Certificate of Origin, MSDS (UN 1823) and a per-lot Certificate of Analysis (COA).
