Why the UAE

Why Buy Caustic Soda from a UAE Supplier?

Jebel Ali is one of the world's busiest container ports — it handled 15.5 million TEU in 2024, its highest volume since 2015 — and it sits between the main caustic soda import markets of the GCC, Africa and South Asia.

  • Frequent sailings

    Weekly services from Jebel Ali to East and West Africa, the Red Sea, South Asia and the Far East keep freight options open and transit short.

  • Short transit to your port

    Typically 2–7 days to GCC ports, 5–11 days to South Asia, 10–19 days to East Africa and 18–25 days to West Africa.

  • Lower total landed cost

    Shorter voyages mean less cash tied up at sea and faster replacement orders than shipping from the Far East.

  • Second route via Mersin

    Gulf and Red Sea shipping saw disruption in 2026. With a Turkish office and Mersin loading, we can switch routes so your supply continues.

  • UAE domestic delivery

    Road delivery to Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Sharjah, Ajman, Umm Al Quwain, Ras Al Khaimah and Fujairah for local plants and distributors.

  • Accepted documents

    UAE or Turkish Certificate of Origin, batch COA, SDS and DG declaration — prepared once, correctly, for your customs broker.

What is the minimum order quantity for caustic soda from Dubai?

The minimum order is one full container load (1 × 20ft FCL) — about 25 MT of caustic soda flakes in 25 kg bags — or one ISO tank for liquid caustic soda. Larger orders can be shipped in several containers on an agreed schedule.

How fast can you ship caustic soda from Jebel Ali?

Loading normally takes 7–10 working days from order confirmation and advance payment. Transit from Jebel Ali is typically 2–7 days to GCC ports, 5–11 days to South Asia, 10–19 days to East Africa and 18–25 days to West Africa.

Do you deliver caustic soda inside the UAE?

Yes. We deliver by road to all seven emirates — Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Sharjah, Ajman, Umm Al Quwain, Ras Al Khaimah and Fujairah — in addition to exporting through Jebel Ali Port.

Which countries do you export caustic soda to from Dubai?

Our main markets are the GCC, East, West and Southern Africa, South Asia and Southeast Asia from Jebel Ali, and Europe, the Balkans and North Africa mainly from Mersin in Turkey. We also ship to Latin America on request.

What documents come with a caustic soda shipment from the UAE?

Every shipment includes a Certificate of Analysis, Safety Data Sheet, Commercial Invoice, Packing List, Bill of Lading, Certificate of Origin and a dangerous goods declaration, because caustic soda is UN 1823 (solid) or UN 1824 (solution), Class 8. SGS or Bureau Veritas inspection is available on request at the buyer's cost.

What payment terms do you accept?

We accept T/T, L/C at sight and D/P. Standard terms for new buyers are 30% advance and 70% against a copy of the Bill of Lading.

What is the HS code for caustic soda?

Solid caustic soda (flakes and pearls) is HS 2815.11 and caustic soda in aqueous solution (liquid) is HS 2815.12. The CAS number of sodium hydroxide is 1310-73-2.

Which is better, caustic soda flakes, pearls or liquid?

Flakes 98% are the most economical choice for soap, detergent, textile and water-treatment plants. Pearls 99% flow freely and dose accurately in automated systems. Liquid caustic soda suits large continuous users with storage tanks, such as pulp mills and refineries, because it needs no dissolving.

How is liquid caustic soda shipped from the UAE?

Liquid caustic soda is shipped in ISO tank containers only. Flakes and pearls are packed in 25 kg bags or 1,000 kg jumbo bags (FIBC) and shipped in 20ft containers.

Why buy caustic soda from the UAE instead of China?

For buyers in the GCC, Africa and South Asia, Jebel Ali is much closer than Chinese ports, so transit is shorter, less cash is tied up in cargo at sea and replacement orders arrive faster. Jebel Ali also has frequent sailings to these regions, which keeps freight options open.

Yes. Send us the grade, quantity, packing and destination port and we will reply within 24 hours with a firm FOB Jebel Ali, CFR or CIF offer. Our caustic soda price page shows current indicative FOB levels.
