Sodium Bicarbonate is a food-grade, high-purity mineral salt used to correct pH and restore alkalinity in RO-treated and bottled water, and as a functional ingredient in food, beverage, and pharmaceutical formulations. It's one of the most widely used buffering agents in water treatment, valued for consistent performance and broad regulatory acceptance.
Formulated for consistent, reliable alkalinity control:
Certified food grade (FCC, E500) for direct use in food, beverage, and pharmaceutical applications
High purity (99.6% min assay) in a fine crystalline powder for consistent dosing
Readily soluble in water with a mild, slightly salty, alkaline taste profile
Stable for up to 3 years when stored in a dry, well-ventilated environment
