OozeChem stands as one of the premier chemical manufacturers in the Gulf, delivering exceptional quality Granular Calcium Hypochlorite for diverse water treatment and disinfection applications. As your trusted chemical supplier in UAE, we serve multiple industries with comprehensive chemical solutions in Gulf region.

What is Granular Calcium Hypochlorite?

Granular Calcium Hypochlorite (Ca(ClO)₂) is a white, crystalline chemical compound that serves as one of the most effective and widely used chlorine-based disinfectants in water treatment applications. Also known as calcium oxychloride or bleaching powder, this compound typically contains 65-70% available chlorine content, making it significantly more concentrated than liquid bleach solutions.

Why Choose Granular Over Powder?

  • Less dust generation during handling
  • Better flow properties through equipment
  • Controlled dissolution rate for consistent treatment
  • Reduced operator exposure risks
