Factors That Cause Price Differences
- Purity / Grade: Food-grade, pharma-grade, or high-purity sodium formate cost more. Industrial grade is cheaper.
- Order volume: Smaller orders (e.g. under 1-5 tons) tend to have higher unit price. Large tonnage gets better rates.
- Shipping / Freight / FOB vs CIF: Delivered to a port / factory vs shipped all the way affects cost. Import duties / tariffs / handling add up.
- Local raw material costs (especially cost of formic acid and sodium hydroxide).
- Seasonal demand (e.g. for de-icing, leather tanning, oil drilling) can cause spikes.
