Carboxyl Methyl Cellulose (CMC) is a water-soluble polymer derived from cellulose. In Mumbai, we supply premium CMC to support local food processing industries (traditional sweets, ice cream, bakery products), pharmaceutical formulations (tablet binders for Mumbai's pharma companies), textile printing for Kala Dagar and power loom clusters, and engineering applications (drilling muds for oil exploration off Mumbai coast). Mumbai's oil exploration activities in Mumbai High (India's largest offshore oilfield operated by ONGC, 170 km west of Mumbai coastline) require quality drilling fluids. Our product helps support India's energy security through offshore oil production.
As an indispensable thickener and binder for Mumbai's food, pharmaceutical, and energy sectors, it serves as a fundamental raw material for multiple industries. For Mumbai's food processors (Grant Road sweets, ice cream manufacturers in Andheri, bakeries across suburbs), pharmaceutical companies (tablet manufacturing in Taloja, Andheri), textile units (traditional block printing and power looms), and oil exploration (Mumbai High offshore operations), this product meets all quality standards while supporting Mumbai's food heritage, pharmaceutical exports, and energy production.
This product is available for Bombay industries in granular, coarse, and fine powder forms, ranging from white to cream color. We offer various grades and viscosity levels to suit specific regional industrial requirements. Sodium Carboxymethyl Cellulose is manufactured under controlled conditions using cellulose, caustic soda, and monochloroacetic acid, ensuring 100% quality and performance consistency for our Bombay clients.
CMC is a non-toxic, odorless, and tasteless powder that is highly soluble in both hot and cold water, with faster dissolution in hot water. It exhibits excellent stability in hard water, alkaline and acidic conditions, and shows good resistance against microbial attack compared to many natural gums. However, certain multivalent metal ions may affect its solubility.
Our CMC (High Viscosity Grade) is widely used in oil drilling, food processing, pharmaceuticals, textiles, detergents, and construction industries. In oilfield applications, it acts as a high-performance drilling fluid additive, improving mud viscosity, filtration control, and wellbore stability. It helps in preventing wall collapse, reducing fluid loss, and increasing drilling efficiency, making it an essential component in modern drilling operations.
With excellent salt resistance and temperature stability, our CMC performs efficiently even in sea water and saturated brine conditions. We provide customized grades and packaging options to meet diverse industrial needs, ensuring reliable performance and cost-effective solutions for our clients.
