Can Sodium Bicarbonate be stored in flexible intermediate bulk containers (FIBCs) outdoors?

No, even FIBCs are not completely waterproof. We recommend storing all Sodium Bicarbonate containers indoors in a dry warehouse.

Does Sodium Bicarbonate have an expiration date, and what limits its shelf life?

Yes, while chemically stable, its shelf life is limited by its tendency to slowly absorb CO2 and moisture from the air, which can alter its assay value.

What is the heavy metal content in your pharmaceutical-grade Sodium Bicarbonate?

Our pharmaceutical-grade Sodium Bicarbonate meets strict USP/EP limits for heavy metals.

How to report damaged Sodium Bicarbonate upon delivery?
