Sodium Propionate About

Sodium Propionate from Sonuchem is ideal for the use in the food industry for its impressive level of quality. It is a white and odorless powder with a mildy salty taste and is widely required as a preservative, mould inhibitor and flavouring agent, among other uses. Its high purity and content of active sodium makes it a trusted product in the market.

Exceptional Mold Inhibition

Sodium Propionate acts as a powerful mold inhibitor, making it an ideal preservative in bakery products. By effectively controlling microbial growth, it helps maintain product freshness and safety throughout its two-year shelf life. This ensures that baked goods retain their quality during distribution and storage.


High-Purity, Food Grade Quality

With a minimum purity of 99%, Sodium Propionate meets stringent food safety standards. Its food-grade classification assures suitability for human consumption. Free from heavy metal contamination, and with low moisture content, it provides reliable performance in commercial food production.


Easy Application and Storage

Supplied as a white, freely water-soluble powder, Sodium Propionate is simple to use and integrate into food manufacturing processes. Packaging is optimized for bulk use in 25kg bags, and storing the product in tightly closed containers in cool, dry conditions preserves quality and efficacy.

FAQ's of Sodium Propionate:


Q: How is Sodium Propionate used in bakery products as a preservative?

A: Sodium Propionate is added directly to dough formulations or sprinkled onto finished bakery goods to inhibit mold growth and extend shelf life. Its slightly salty taste does not significantly alter the flavor profile, making it suitable for various applications.

Q: What benefits does Sodium Propionate offer for food preservation?

A: Sodium Propionate effectively prevents the growth of mold and some bacteria in foods, especially bakery items. This helps maintain product freshness, reduces spoilage, and ensures greater food safety for consumers over extended periods.

Q: What is the recommended storage method for Sodium Propionate?

A: Store Sodium Propionate in a cool, dry environment, keeping containers tightly closed to prevent moisture uptake and maintain quality throughout its two-year shelf life.

Q: Where is Sodium Propionate manufactured and supplied?

A: Sodium Propionate is manufactured using propionic acid and sodium carbonate, primarily exported from China. It is readily available through exporters, suppliers, and traders in India for food industry applications.

Q: When should Sodium Propionate be added during food processing?

A: It is best incorporated at the dough mixing stage in bakery production, as this ensures even distribution and optimal mold inhibition throughout the product.

Q: What is the process for ensuring the purity of Sodium Propionate used in foods?

A: Manufacturing involves careful selection of raw materials and rigorous testing, including assay and detection of heavy metals. The final product is standardized to a minimum purity of 99%, with moisture and residue on ignition kept within strict limits.
