Overview

Acetone is one of the most versatile solvents in industry. It dissolves a wide range of resins, oils and polymers, mixes completely with water and evaporates quickly without leaving residue, which makes it a go-to choice for coatings, adhesives and precision cleaning.

Our acetone is supplied at a minimum purity of 99.5% with low water content and low non-volatile residue. Every batch is tested for purity, water and colour before it leaves our warehouse, and a Certificate of Analysis travels with each delivery.

Why customers choose it

  • Consistent evaporation rate for predictable drying times
  • Low residue for cleaning critical surfaces
  • Drums, IBCs and bulk to match your consumption
