Loba product data describes Sodium Metabisulphite as a white crystalline solid with a sulphurous odour. Its aqueous solution is mildly acidic, and the material must be protected from moisture, direct sunlight and unnecessary air exposure.
Product Overview
Sodium Metabisulfite is an inorganic sulphite salt widely used where a controlled reducing action is required. When dissolved in water, it forms bisulfite-related species that can neutralize oxidizing substances and participate in reduction reactions.
In textile processing, the product may be used as a reducing bleaching agent, an antichlor chemical after chlorine-based treatment, and a neutralizer for selected oxidizing residues. It can also help remove unwanted dyes or discoloration when an approved textile recipe specifies sodium metabisulfite.
Loba lists both Extra Pure and AR/ACS 500gm variants. The Extra Pure product is Article No. 05935 with stated purity of 96.5%, while the AR/ACS product is Article No. 05937 with stated purity of 97%. Both Loba listings show a 60-month shelf life, but the expiry and storage period for the supplied batch must be checked on its label and Certificate of Analysis.
Because different grades have different impurity limits, buyers should confirm the exact grade before analytical, pharmaceutical, food-related or specification-sensitive use. This product page is intended primarily for textile, laboratory and approved industrial applications.
Main Applications
Textile Bleaching and Whiteness Correction
Sodium metabisulfite may be used as a reducing bleaching agent to address selected discoloration and oxidized colour residues. The required concentration and process conditions depend on the fibre, previous treatment and approved mill recipe.
Dechlorination and Antichlor Treatment
The chemical can neutralize residual chlorine after chlorine-based bleaching or washing processes. Proper dechlorination helps reduce the risk of continued oxidation that may weaken fibres or affect later dyeing and finishing stages.
Neutralization of Residual Oxidizing Agents
Sodium metabisulfite may be used to reduce selected oxidizing residues in textile baths and equipment-cleaning processes. Suitability for hydrogen peroxide or another oxidizer must be confirmed from the process method and chemical supplier guidance.
Dye Stripping and Colour Correction
Its reducing action can support selected dye-stripping, shade-correction and colour-removal processes. It is not a universal stripping agent, so the dye class, fibre type and recipe must be evaluated before use.
Textile Dyeing and Printing Processes
Sodium metabisulfite may be included in certain dyeing, printing or discharge formulations where a reducing environment is required. The exact function and dose depend on the dye system and technical recipe.
Laboratory Solution Preparation
The product may be used for reducing-agent solutions, chemical demonstrations, neutralization work and selected analytical procedures. AR/ACS grade should be confirmed when low impurity levels or analytical accuracy are required.
Water and Effluent Treatment
Sodium metabisulfite is commonly used to neutralize residual chlorine and other oxidizing agents in water-treatment systems. Textile facilities should use it only under an approved water-treatment or effluent-management procedure.

Who Should Buy This Product?
This product is suitable for textile dyeing laboratories, textile mills, washing plants, dye houses, quality-control departments and garment-processing facilities that require sodium metabisulfite for approved reduction or neutralization processes.
It may also be suitable for educational laboratories, research facilities, water-treatment teams, chemical formulation units and industrial laboratories. Buyers requiring analytical work should confirm whether the supplied product is AR/ACS grade.
The 500gm pack is generally practical for laboratory testing, pilot work and small-volume requirements. Continuous production facilities should contact Inaya Scientific to confirm bulk quantities or larger available packs.

Usage and Handling Summary
Sodium Metabisulfite must be handled by trained personnel according to the product label, Safety Data Sheet and workplace chemical procedure. Wear suitable protective gloves, protective clothing and eye or face protection, and avoid breathing dust or sulphur dioxide fumes.
Measure the required amount accurately and add it gradually to water using compatible equipment and adequate ventilation. Always follow the approved textile recipe or laboratory method, because concentration, temperature, pH and addition sequence can change the result.
Do not mix sodium metabisulfite with acids unless a qualified procedure specifically requires it. Contact with acids can release toxic sulphur dioxide gas, creating a serious inhalation hazard.
If the product enters the eyes, rinse cautiously with water for several minutes and seek immediate medical attention. If swallowed or if exposure causes illness, contact a medical professional or poison centre promptly and follow the SDS first-aid instructions.
