Product overview

Formic acid (HCOOH) is an industrial chemical that many organizations integrate into their own process operations, cleaning routines and formulation programs. On the RawChemix side it is treated as a B2B product within the wider industrial chemicals and raw materials portfolio, supplied to professional users who already operate with internal procedures, trained personnel and local regulatory frameworks.

For each cooperation, formic acid is discussed together with specifications, documentation and logistics patterns that fit the customer's operations. Concentration/grade, packaging formats and delivery schedules are defined directly between RawChemix and the customer, while the technical use, handling and storage conditions are determined and controlled by the customer within its own systems, risk assessments and compliance requirements.

Typical industrial contexts

Process applications

Used by industrial operators where acids are managed within customer-defined process programs, with parameters and acceptance criteria set by internal standards and local regulations.

Formulation programs

Integrated into formulation and blending workflows where raw materials are handled under quality systems, technical specifications and site procedures defined by the customer.

Cleaning & maintenance

Considered within cleaning and maintenance routines where chemical handling is governed by internal procedures, engineering guidance and site-specific risk controls.

Service providers

Used by professional service companies and contractors supporting industrial operations, with technical decisions and responsibilities remaining on the service provider and customer side.

Planned ocean freight

Ocean freight solutions used for many bulk and contract shipments. Transit windows, routes and ports are reviewed during the RFQ process and agreed directly with each customer's logistics and supply chain teams.

Air freight for time-sensitive cases

Where appropriate, business customers may discuss air freight options for time-sensitive deliveries. Availability, routes and typical lead times are evaluated on a case-by-case basis as part of the commercial discussion.

Region-specific logistics

Logistics patterns for Australia, New Zealand, Asia, the Middle East and North America are aligned with each customer's existing supply chain, preferred ports, Incoterms and handling procedures.

Packaging, documentation & handling

Each shipment is arranged as an industrial B2B delivery. Packaging formats, documentation and handling expectations are discussed with the customer and confirmed during the RFQ and contract stages. In practice, a shipment typically includes:

Industrial-grade packaging formats agreed with the customer (for example bulk, IBC or drums, where applicable)
Technical documentation such as specifications and safety data sheets provided to business customers
Shipment and tracking information shared for supply chain visibility and coordination
Agreed insurance and risk allocation according to contract terms and applicable Incoterms

Handling, storage and any application-specific procedures are defined and implemented by each customer within its own safety, environmental and regulatory framework.
