Caustic Alkalis & Bases

Colorless or white pellets of a caustic base sodium hydroxide/potassium hydroxide

Life Sciences—with its complex analyses, routine lab work, and production—demands unique and distinct solutions dictated by varied regulations.    

Thereby your search for products requires careful consideration of your application and target.  

To ease your search, we offer caustic alkalis and bases from three different portfolio brands, dedicated to three distinct types of applications:

  • Supelco® products for analytical chemistry,
  • Sigma-Aldrich® materials for lab and production,
  • SAFC® products for biopharmaceutical and pharmaceutical development and manufacturing

Each brand offers a wide selection of bases and alkalis in a variety of volumes, different packaging materials, and necessary documents. You can search for the bases and alkalis as per the specific requirement of your application.
