Direct supply from state-of-the-art facilities with high purity & unmatched compliance standards.
In the global personal care and cosmetic manufacturing industries, chemical purity, structural stability, and safety profile are non-negotiable parameters for formulation components. Among these components, Aluminum Chloride and Aluminum Chlorohydrate (ACH) serve as the foundational active agents in clinical-strength antiperspirants and daily deodorants. As a leading manufacturer with over 27 years of deep-domain expertise, Wuxi BS Water Treatment Chemicals Co., Ltd. supplies high-basicity aluminum compounds to meet stringent multinational regulatory guidelines.
Established in 1998, Wuxi BS has transitioned from a localized enterprise to a dominant player in global chemical synthesis. Our advanced infrastructure yields an annual sales volume exceeding 500,000 tons. Utilizing modern automated reactors and molecular distillation configurations, we deliver cosmetic-grade and industrial-grade aluminum salts characterized by low iron content, tight pH tolerances, and exceptional monomeric/polymeric consistency.
Cosmetic brands, clinical antiperspirant formulators, and bulk distributors face a complex procurement matrix. Modern consumers demand long-lasting efficacy without skin irritation, yellow staining on apparel, or chemical crystallization inside aerosol and roll-on packaging. Meeting these requirements requires sourcing active raw materials with optimal basicity, precise Al:Cl ratio control, and ultra-low levels of impurities (such as iron, lead, and heavy metals).
High-basicity Aluminum Chlorohydrate (ACH) with an Al2O3 concentration of 46% to 50% represents the gold standard for roll-on deodorants, creams, and stick configurations. Its polymeric complex effectively blocks eccrine sweat glands temporary, reducing regional sweat secretion while maintaining a high dermal tolerance threshold. Conversely, for hyperhidrosis treatments (clinical-strength formulas), anhydrous or hexahydrate Aluminum Chloride is utilized for deeper sweat gland occlusion. Wuxi BS operates dual production pathways to supply both categories under customized specifications.
Formulation Advisory Note: Product performance inside aerosol systems relies on particle size distribution. Coarse particles clog spray nozzles, while excessively fine particles risk inhalation hazards. Wuxi BS supplies customized, low-dust granules and micronized powder formulations engineered specifically to optimize suspension stability in cosmetic bases.
| Active Ingredient Compound | Al2O3 Content (%) | Basicity Range (%) | Standard Application Type | pH Range (15% aq. sol.) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Aluminum Chlorohydrate (ACH) Powder | 46.0% - 48.0% | 82% - 85% | Standard Antiperspirants, Aerosols & Roll-ons | 4.0 - 4.5 |
| Aluminum Chlorohydrate (ACH) Liquid | 23.0% - 24.0% | 82% - 85% | Hydro-alcoholic Gels & Emulsions | 4.0 - 4.5 |
| Aluminum Chloride Hexahydrate | 19.5% - 20.5% | 0% - 5% (Acidic) | Clinical / Medical Strength Deodorants | 2.0 - 3.0 |
| Polyaluminum Chloride (PAC) | 28.0% - 30.0% | 50% - 90% | Industrial & Auxiliary Water Treatment Processes | 3.5 - 5.0 |
As chemical production technology evolves, manufacturing facilities must prioritize environmental stewardship alongside product yield. Wuxi BS has integrated circular manufacturing routes into its production infrastructure. The raw materials used in synthesis undergo digital dosing via automated control systems (introduced in 2025), optimizing thermal efficiency and minimizing side reactions.
Our technical roadmap targets three core milestones over the next decade:
Enhancing the concentration of Al13 and Al30 polymers within Aluminum Chlorohydrate solutions. This elevates antiperspirant efficacy at lower overall aluminum concentrations, minimizing skin irritation.
Converting calcination and crystallization units to utilize renewable energy sources, minimizing the embedded carbon footprint of our bulk cosmetics chemicals.
Developing next-generation anhydrous Aluminum Chloride variations that prevent localized skin burning and formulation degradation triggered by free hydrogen chloride gases.
Cosmetic and personal care factories operate large-scale mixing, homogenization, and filling lines that generate wastewater streams high in oils, surfactants, and suspended solids. As water treatment specialists, Wuxi BS provides chemical solutions that address both product formulation and wastewater management challenges.
Our specialized water-treatment polymer portfolio—including Polyacrylamide (PAM), Poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride) (PDADMAC), and Water Decolorizing Agent (WDA)—allows cosmetic manufacturers to clean process wastewater, reclaim water resources, and meet local environmental discharge criteria. By selecting the correct polymeric coagulants and flocculants, manufacturers can quickly separate emulsion oil residues, minimizing regulatory and operational risks.
High-Basicity ACH controls pH while facilitating safe, stable formulation bases for stick, gel, and spray deodorants.
Using cationic PDADMAC and Anionic PAM (APAM) to flocculate suspended organic particles and residual fats from mixing tanks.
Preventing biofouling in reverse osmosis (RO) systems by removing colloidal silica and heavy organic compounds beforehand.
Exporting cosmetic raw materials and chemical flocculants requires alignment with regional regulatory frameworks. Wuxi BS maintains active compliance across major markets. Our manufacturing plants maintain ISO 9001 quality management and ISO 14001 environmental management system certifications, ensuring all production runs match the technical data sheets (TDS) and safety profiles provided.
For buyers in North America and Europe, we provide raw materials that comply with U.S. FDA OTC monograph regulations for antiperspirant actives, as well as European Union REACH documentation. Wuxi BS also provides custom logistics options, including moisture-controlled shipping containers, air-tight packaging to protect anhydrous chemicals from hydration, and customized label options to simplify the customs clearance process.

Solutions to common formulation challenges, active ingredient selection, and storage guidelines.
Cosmetic-grade ACH requires strict control over heavy metals, arsenic, and iron contaminants (typically limited to under 10 ppm) to ensure safety on human skin. Industrial-grade ACH, primarily used for wastewater treatment, focus on active Al2O3 concentration and basicity. It permits higher iron content, which can cause discoloration in cosmetic formulations.
Basicity indicates the ratio of hydroxyl groups to aluminum atoms. High-basicity ACH (82%–85%) has a lower acid profile and higher structural polymer content. It forms stable gel plugs at the sweat gland pore exit at a physiological pH of around 7, providing effective protection with less irritation than low-basicity alternatives.
Anhydrous Aluminum Chloride is highly hygroscopic. Exposure to ambient moisture triggers an exothermic reaction that releases toxic hydrochloric acid (HCl) gas. Processing lines must use dry air or nitrogen blankets, and storage must utilize moisture-resistant steel drums with protective liners.
Yes. Our milling and sieving setups produce powders with customized particle size distributions. This ensures suspension stability in anhydrous formulations or rapid dissolution in water-based roll-on systems.
We provide REACH declarations, safety data sheets (SDS) formatted to regional requirements, certificate of analysis (COA) documents for every batch, and compliance data sheets confirming trace metal content falls within regulatory limits.
