This page explains how caustic soda per kg price is formed for caustic soda flakes (NaOH) 98.5%, what affects the unit cost, and how to request a competitive, factory-direct quote. We supply export-grade flakes in 25 kg bags and load ≈ 27,000 kg (27 MT) per 20’ container. Full documents (COA, MSDS) and inspection options are available.
Product name: caustic soda flakes (sodium hydroxide, NaOH)
Grade: industrial flakes, 98.5% NaOH
Form: white flakes / paillettes, free-flowing
Packaging: 25 kg PP/PE lined bags (custom printing on request)
Container load: ≈ 27,000 kg per 20’ FCL
Calculation (bags per container):
27,000 kg ÷ 25 kg per bag = 1,080 bags.
(Checked step-by-step: 25 × 1,000 = 25,000; remaining 2,000 / 25 = 80; total = 1,000 + 80 = 1,080.)

A clear understanding of pricing components helps you compare quotes and secure the best deal. Typical factors:
Base product cost (factory price)
Factory FOB price is quoted per tonne. To convert to per kg: divide the FOB price per tonne by 1,000.
Example formula: price per kg (FOB) = FOB price per tonne ÷ 1,000.
Packaging & handling
Cost for 25 kg lined bags, palletization, and internal handling is added per tonne then converted to per kg.
Logistics & freight
FOB excludes sea freight. CIF includes ocean freight, insurance and port charges to your destination — these add to the per kg landed cost.
Sea freight varies by route and season; always request CIF quotes for your target port.
Inspection, testing & certification
Third-party inspection (SGS/BV) and additional lab testing are optional costs added per shipment.
Duties, taxes & clearance
Import duties, VAT and local handling at destination affect the final landed price per kg.
Volume & contract terms
Larger volumes and long-term contracts typically lower the per kg price due to economies of scale.
When asking suppliers for caustic soda per kg price, request the following line items to compare apples-to-apples:
FOB price per tonne (factory)
Packing & handling cost (per tonne)
Sea freight & insurance (CIF) to your port (per tonne)
Inspection & testing fees (if any)
Lead time & payment terms (TT / L/C)
MOQ (e.g., 1 × 20’ container = 27 MT)
Converting to per kg is simple: sum all per-tonne items, then divide by 1,000.
