Silica Gel Bulk Packs
In India

Whilst most frequently used in sachets, silica gel has a number of applications in its loose form. These include use in transformer and breather units, desiccators and for flower drying. To this end we offer a number of standard size packs, tins and drums.

500 gram and 1 kg in sealed foil bags or plastic containers.
3 kg in poly tins.
12.5 kg in plastic pails.
25 kg in metal drums.

Larger drums/kegs also often available.

Grades usually available in these packs are :

Non-indicating (white) silica gel :
0.2 - 0.5 mm, 0.5 - 1.0 mm, 1 - 3 mm and 3 - 6 mm (granular)

Self-indicating silica gels :

Blue to Pink 0.5 - 1.0 mm, 1 - 3 mm and 3 - 6 mm (granular)
plus 1 - 3 mm and 2 - 5 mm (bead).

Fine silica gels 0.2 - 0.5 mm or 0.5 - 1.0 mm are suitable for drying flowers.
Dynamic adsorption processes often require a large silica gel 2 - 5 mm or 3 - 6 mm
that allows air to be passed through them.

For desiccator units, medium silica gels 1 - 3 mm or 2 - 5 mm are suitable.

When considering a volume to be filled with silica gel, approximately 700 - 800 grams of silica gel occupies 1 litre of space.

Packs and drums are sold in singles or multiples. Prices are quantity based, there are often dramatic price reductions for larger quantities.
