01VITAMINS & SUPPLEMENTS
Precise preservation in granular form
A quiet staple in the formulation lab, this preservative arrives as fine white prills, ready to integrate into creams, beverages or gels. Its granular texture ensures even dispersion without clumping, supporting a smooth final product.
Designed for professionals working with low pH systems, it pairs effectively with potassium sorbate to manage yeast and mould growth, offering a reliable safeguard for shelf stability.
Sodium Benzoate in resealable bag


02MATERIALS
Granular precision for easy handling
The sodium salt of benzoic acid appears here as distinct white prills rather than a fine dust. This physical form reduces airborne particulates during weighing and encourages uniform distribution within aqueous bases. The material is chemically stable and visually clean, signalling purity before the first test tube is filled.

04PRACTICALITY
Five kilograms of measured potential
Supplied in a five kilogram carton, this quantity suits small-batch producers and laboratory testing alike. The contents are held in a resealable bag, protecting the prills from humidity until needed. With a package weight of 5.2 kg, it is substantial enough for regular use yet manageable for standard storage shelves.
05AT A GLANCE
The key points
- USP38 pharmaceutical grade with FCC compliance
- White prilled consistency that dissolves readily
- Five kilogram carton for consistent batch work
- Synergistic partner for low pH formulations

About this product
Sodium Benzoate is widely used as a preservative for cosmetics, pharmaceutical and food/beverage formulations. Benzoic acid, or NaC7H5O2, is considered to be primarily an anti-fungal, but also shows some activity against bacteria.
It is the sodium salt of benzoic acid and exists in the form of white powder/granular solid and is water soluble. Often combined with Potassium Sorbate in low pH products, it provides a synergistic preservative effect against yeast and mould.
