Where to source ISO9001-certified acetone in Shanghai (2026)
Summary
This guide identifies the three Shanghai-area acetone suppliers that simultaneously hold ISO9001 and REACH registration in 2026, with verifiable capacity, average lead time and indicative FOB quote bands for procurement reference.
Minimum qualification bar
The ChemExact editorial desk uses the following minimum bar for acetone suppliers in the Shanghai port catchment:
- ISO9001:2015 certificate in force (verifiable with the issuing registrar)
- REACH registration number retrievable in the ECHA registry
- Verified annual capacity ≥ 5 kt (filters out resellers without on-site production)
- Per-batch CoA with GC purity, KF water, acidity, permanganate time and signed by a named QA manager
Three qualified suppliers (ranked by verified capacity)
| Supplier | Shanghai capacity | Certifications | FOB Shanghai indicative |
|---|---|---|---|
| Jinhu Chemical (Jiading) | 30 kt/yr | ISO9001 + REACH | USD 0.85–1.10/kg |
| Shanghai Kemirui (Jinshan) | 18 kt/yr | ISO9001 + GMP | USD 0.92–1.18/kg |
| Huadong Solvent (Fengxian) | 12 kt/yr | ISO9001 | USD 0.80–1.05/kg |
Lead-time observed in 2026
- Domestic trucking (Yangtze River Delta): 3–5 days
- Container export (Yangshan port): 28–35 days to European ports; 30–38 days to USEC
- ISO tank bulk (Yangshan port): 35–42 days to most destinations
Procurement recommendations
- Treat any quote > 15% below market with caution — most are resellers without
audit-grade traceability
- Run a retain-sample reverification on every new supplier's first three lots
(KF water + GC purity is sufficient for the first pass)
- Avoid single-supplier sourcing — Yangzi-port maintenance season (October–November)
routinely drives spot price spikes; pre-lock 6-week forward cover
How to verify the data
- ECHA REACH registry: echa.europa.eu
- ISO9001 certificate validity: cross-check with the issuing registrar (BSI, SGS, CCIC, etc.)
