Ammonium Bisulphite with formula NH4HSO3 is a versatile reducing agent and preservative. In Chandigarh - the capital of two states and with a diverse food processing industry serving the tricity's 1.5+ million residents and the larger north Indian market, we supply premium Ammonium Bisulphite to support food processing units (bakery and confectionery, namkeen and snack manufacturing, fruit and vegetable processing, pickles and preserves, and dairy processing in Chandigarh, Panchkula, Mohali, Zirakpur, and surrounding areas), pulp and paper industries in Derabassi and Lalru (50+ paper mills using recycled waste paper for kraft and packaging board), water treatment plants (municipal and industrial - for oxygen scavenging and dechlorination), and chemical manufacturing (intermediate synthesis, ethanol production for liquor and potable alcohol, and specialty chemical production). Chandigarh's food processing industry (serving the city's own large population, and also acting as a hub for distribution to Punjab, Haryana, Himachal, and other north Indian markets, with many small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and some large units producing bakery products (breads, biscuits, cakes, pastries), snacks (namkeen, chana, bhujia), dairy (milk, paneer, curd, ice cream), fruit/vegetable processing (juices, squashes, concentrates from apples from Himachal, mangoes and litchis from Punjab, and citrus from Haryana, and pickles, chutneys, and preserves), and other value-added food items for retail and food service (hotels, restaurants, cafes, QSRs, and catering businesses) requires effective preservation to prevent browning, maintain color, and extend shelf life. Our product helps support Chandigarh's food processing sector, paper mills, and water treatment facilities, ensuring food quality and safety, preserving product freshness, and maintaining industrial water quality.
As an indispensable reducing agent and preservative for Chandigarh's food processing, paper, and water treatment sectors, it serves multiple industries. For food processing units (bakery and confectionery, namkeen and snack manufacturing across the tricity, fruit and vegetable processing for value-added products, and dairy processing for milk and paneer - all of which use ammonium bisulphite as an antioxidant, preservative, browning inhibitor, and oxygen scavenger), paper mills (Derabassi, Lalru - for chlorine and chloramine removal, as a dechlorination agent, and sometimes in pulp bleaching or for color control, and in paper mill ETPs for chemical oxygen demand (COD) reduction and as an oxygen scavenger in boiler feed water), water treatment plants (municipal - for dechlorination (removing residual chlorine from water prior to distribution or sensitive uses, and as an oxygen scavenger for boiler feed water for process industries, and industrial - for process water treatment), and chemical manufacturing facilities (producing various fine chemicals, specialty chemicals, and intermediates, and for ethanol production in distilleries), this product meets all quality standards while supporting Chandigarh's diverse food processing industry (serving the region's taste buds and nutritional needs), its packaging industry (through paper and board production for secondary and tertiary packaging for manufactured goods), and its water treatment sector (ensuring safe drinking water and industrial process water quality).
