What Is Caustic Soda?
Caustic Soda (chemical name: Sodium Hydroxide or NaOH) is a highly alkaline compound widely used in industrial production. It comes in solid form—flakes or pearls—and dissolves quickly in water, making it essential in a wide range of applications from soap making to metal processing. Our product meets international standards, with purity levels of 98% to 99%, suited to Kenyan industries of various scales.
