POTASSIUM METABISULPHITE (Potassium pyrosulphate, Dipotassium disulphate) is a common wine or must additive, in which it forms sulphur dioxide. Potassium metabisulfite is sometimes used in the brewing industry to inhibit the growth of wild bacteria and fungi. This step is called ‘stabilizing’. It is also used to neutralize monochloramine from tap water. It is used in the textile industry for dyeing and cotton printing, component of certain photographic developers and solutions used in photographic fixing. It is offered in Technical and Industrial Grade. It is available in the form of white powder packed in 25kg, 50kg HDPE Bag. We can offer it in many grades as per the application needs in different industry sectors.
