Sodium Nitrite prices stabilize in August 2025 as the Chinese and Indian markets remain settled. There was abundant supply from the main production centers in China and a smooth flow of raw materials, especially with supplier costs remaining consistent, which lead to a stabilized market. In India, the industry has achieved equilibrium where available stock levels were sustained throughout the entire delivery system maintaining Sodium Nitrite prices at an even level. There was a seasonal demand slowdown for the industrial and food sectors (especially meat curing), with the major importing countries restricting procurements during this period of lower consumption. Frequent storms caused minor marine delays to the procurement shipments to importing countries, however, inventory held throughout the supply chain managed to mitigate any production delays. Therefore, given that demand was restricted to a historical season lull, market predictions for price and supply behaviour for Sodium Nitrite over the immediate future do not warrant a rebound in demand, and continued market stability or downward pressure in prices, appears to be expected.
