Chemical Listing
Plater Group is uniquely positioned to supply a comprehensive range of high-purity phosphate powders, polyphosphates, and specialized phosphate solutions to industries across the UK and Ireland. Through long-standing strategic partnerships with leading global chemical producers, we provide reliable bulk distribution for essential solid phosphate powders, including trisodium phosphate (TSP), sodium hexametaphosphate (SHMP), sodium tripolyphosphate (STPP), and tetrapotassium pyrophosphate (TKPP).
To complement our dry phosphate powder distribution, Plater Group manufactures a proprietary range of liquid phosphate and polyphosphate solutions marketed under our trade name, "Polyphos". Formulated and produced at our advanced manufacturing facility in Glossop, Derbyshire, the Polyphos portfolio encompasses orthophosphate, pyrophosphate, tetrapolyphosphate, and hexametaphosphate species in precise sodium, potassium, and ammonium cation matrices.
Our UK-based liquid blending infrastructure allows us to develop bespoke phosphate solutions engineered to match your exact technical parameters, including specific solids content (%w/w), P₂O₅ concentration, specific gravity, and pH requirements. Whether you require liquid sequestering agents, buffering solutions, dispersants, or nutrient sources for food processing, water treatment, detergents, or agricultural applications, our technical team provides complete formulation support.
We supply technical, food, horticultural, and analytical reagent (AR) grade phosphates that adhere to rigorous quality standards and full regulatory compliance.
