Sodium chloride

氯化钠

Not classified as DG. Solar-salt (sea/lake evaporation), rock-salt (mining), and vacuum-pan salt all common. Trade is mostly bulk vessel for industrial-grade and palletised bagged for food-grade. Chinese exports compete with Mediterranean and Indian salt at low margin.

Typical Chinese supplier geography

Major Chinese capacity sits in Shandong, Tianjin, Hebei, Jiangsu. Coastal producers (Shandong, Jiangsu, Zhejiang) typically dominate export volume because of port access; inland producers (Inner Mongolia, Xinjiang, Shaanxi) compete on raw-material cost but add inland-rail or trucking cost to reach the coast.

Sourcing documentation chain

Every shipment of Sodium chloride from China should include a per-batch COA, a current SDS per GB/T 17519 on the China side and the destination jurisdiction's standard on the import side, a packing list, a bill of lading, and a certificate of origin. For Incoterms reference see FOB, CIF, and CFR.
