FeCl3 Price List 2026 — Direct Production, COA per Batch, Nationwide Tanker Delivery
TL;DR: FeCl3 (ferric chloride, CAS 7705-08-0) is a brown-red liquid coagulant with 36–40% concentration, widely used in industrial wastewater treatment, potable water treatment, and electroplating. FeCl3 pricing depends on concentration (36% vs. 40%), packaging format (30L can, 200L drum, 1000L IBC, tank truck), transport distance, and order volume. Loc Thien has been producing FeCl3 directly in Vietnam since 2016 — no intermediaries, with COA for every batch and concentration tolerance within ±1%. Tank truck delivery of 5-30 tons saves 20-35% compared to drums and IBCs. A network of 6 warehouses in Ba Ria-Vung Tau, Dong Nai, Binh Duong, Da Nang, Can Tho, and Bac Ninh optimizes freight costs.

1. How Loc Thien Quotes FeCl3 — Transparent Price Structure (Updated 2026)
FeCl3 is an industrial chemical supplied in bulk lots to businesses and has no fixed list price. At the same concentration, the actual unit price varies with volume per delivery, delivery region, packaging and contract terms. A single published number would not be accurate for your order — so Loc Thien does not post sample prices; instead we issue a written quotation for each specific request, with a clear validity period.
5 factors that determine the FeCl3 unit price
| Factor | Effect on unit price | What you need to provide |
|---|---|---|
| Volume per delivery / month | Larger, regular offtake → lower price per ton | Tons per delivery, delivery frequency |
| Delivery region | Close to one of our 6 warehouses → lower freight; long distance or load-restricted roads → higher freight | Plant address / industrial park |
| Packaging | 5–30-ton tanker has the lowest cost per ton; cans, drums and IBCs add container and filling costs | 30L can, 200L drum, 1000L IBC or tanker |
| Concentration & specifications | Higher concentration or tighter impurity limits (Fe²⁺, free acid, heavy metals) affect production cost | 36% or 40%, mandatory COA parameters (if any) |
| Contract type | Monthly/quarterly/annual framework contracts get more stable pricing than spot orders | Spot or recurring, payment terms |

2. Factors Affecting FeCl3 Price
Concentration (36% vs. 40%)
Commercial FeCl3 is typically supplied in the 36–40% range (the two most common grades are 36% and 40%). A more concentrated solution contains more active substance per liter, reducing dosing volume and operating cost. Every Loc Thien FeCl3 batch comes with a COA confirming the actual concentration, with a tolerance within ±1% of specification. QC technicians (KTV Phan Cam Thuy, Vo Thi Nhu Hoa) are responsible for inspecting each sample before dispatch.
Packaging format — drum vs. IBC vs. tank truck
Packaging format directly affects the unit price per kg of FeCl3:
- 200L Drum: Cost of drum shell + filling labor + pallet. Suitable for small stations, trials, or factories without storage tanks.
- 1000L IBC: More economical than drums due to larger volume. Can connect directly to dosing pumps. Suitable for 2-5 m³/day treatment plants.
- 5-30 ton Tank Truck: No filling into drums/IBCs, no container cost. Saves 20-35% compared to drums and IBCs.
Transport distance
Loc Thien operates 6 nationwide warehouses in Ba Ria-Vung Tau, Dong Nai, Binh Duong, Da Nang, Can Tho, and Bac Ninh. With a warehouse network spanning all three regions, transport costs are always optimized for each factory location — no need to haul from a single central warehouse like suppliers that only have one depot.
Order volume
The larger the order, the lower the logistics and production costs. With guaranteed volume under recurring contracts (monthly/quarterly/yearly), customers receive competitive discount policies. Loc Thien produces directly with no middlemen, so base prices are always better than those of import distributors.
3. Cost Comparison — Tank Truck vs. Drum/IBC
This is the most common question when buying FeCl3 in bulk. The table below compares actual costs among the three common packaging formats. Specific unit prices can vary, but the proportional differences are a stable reference.
| Criterion | 200L Drum | 1000L IBC | 5–30 ton Tank Truck |
|---|---|---|---|
| FeCl3 weight | ~276 kg/drum (density 1.40) | ~1,400 kg/IBC | 5,000-30,000 kg |
| Container cost | Very high (drum must be returned) | Medium (IBC returnable) | None |
| Filling labor | Incurred | Incurred | None |
| Estimated savings | Baseline (100%) | ~10% savings vs. drum | 20-35% savings |
| Best for | Stations <2 m³/day, trials | Stations 2-5 m³/day | Stations >5 m³/day |
| Delivery time | HCMC inner city 4 h · Southern/Mekong industrial parks 24–48 h · North/Central 2–3 days | Same as drum | Scheduled dedicated tanker, same regional time frames |
Conclusion: For wastewater treatment plants with flow rates above 5 m³/day, tank truck delivery is the clearly superior option in terms of cost. See the FeCl3 overview to learn more about the coagulation mechanism.
4. Why Is Loc Thien FeCl3 Pricing Competitive?
Direct production — no middlemen
Unlike distributors that must import FeCl3 from China, India, or South Korea and add a profit margin, Loc Thien has produced FeCl3 directly in Vietnam since 2016. The factory controls its own raw materials, operates its own production line, and manages its own quality control — so the cost is not inflated through multiple intermediary layers.
COA for every batch — transparent quality
Every FeCl3 batch dispatched comes with a Certificate of Analysis (COA) confirming actual concentration, density (1.40-1.45 g/mL at 20°C), pH (1-2), and other physical-chemical specifications. Concentration tolerance is limited to ±1% — ensuring customers receive exactly the quality they ordered. See how to read FeCl3 COA for verification methods.
Optimized logistics — a fleet of tank trucks, 6 nationwide warehouses
A fleet of specialized 5-30 ton tank trucks together with a 6-warehouse network spanning all three regions allows Loc Thien to optimize delivery routes for each order. Delivery within 4 hours in Ho Chi Minh City and nearby industrial zones, 24–48 hours to southern industrial zones. This policy significantly reduces logistics costs compared to suppliers with only a single warehouse.
Technical support from an experienced team
Loc Thien’s technical team assists customers from selecting the right concentration and packaging format to determining actual dosing rates. One factory in Binh Duong Industrial Park treating ~20,000 m³/day of textile dyeing wastewater reduced chemical costs by 18% after switching from 200L drum FeCl3 to recurring tank truck delivery, while also significantly cutting filling labor and spill risk. See buying industrial FeCl3 and FeCl3 product page for more details.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is the difference in price between liquid FeCl3 and powder FeCl3?
Liquid FeCl3 (36–40% solution) costs less than solid forms because it skips the drying stage. Anhydrous FeCl3 powder has higher content but much higher production cost and is used only for specialized applications. Loc Thien directly manufactures FeCl3 solution only; solid forms are not part of the product range.
Is delivery free?
Delivery policy depends on location, volume, and packaging format. For large tank truck orders delivered within Ho Chi Minh City and nearby industrial zones, Loc Thien offers free transport or shared freight. Call 0979 891 929 for specific advice based on your factory location.
What is the pricing policy for recurring contracts?
Customers signing framework contracts monthly/quarterly/yearly receive a long-term contract unit price more favorable than one-off orders. Stable volume allows Loc Thien to plan production and logistics proactively, thereby sharing cost benefits with customers. Contact the hotline to negotiate specific terms.
How do FeCl3 36% and 40% differ in price and effectiveness?
FeCl3 40% is more concentrated so the dosing volume is lower, saving storage tank space. The production cost for concentrated solution is slightly higher. For the same quantity of FeCl3 calculated by kg of active substance, the unit price difference is negligible. Loc Thien technicians are ready to advise on selecting the right concentration for your treatment plant design.
Does Loc Thien issue VAT invoices?
Yes. Loc Thien is a limited liability company with tax code 0313650856 and issues full VAT invoices for every order. See FeCl3 applications in wastewater treatment for more on treatment efficiency.
How quickly can I get a quote?
Call 0979 891 929 — provide the concentration, packaging, quantity, and nearest warehouse. You will receive a quote within 15 minutes. Support is available 7 AM-5 PM weekdays; on holidays please leave a message and we will call back as soon as we are back at work.
I want to try before buying in bulk — how does that work?
Loc Thien supports 30L can or 200L drum orders so customers can evaluate FeCl3 quality directly at their plant. Once the evaluation is satisfactory, you can switch to IBC or tank truck for subsequent orders.
