1) Industrial applications of Zinc Peroxide

Zinc Peroxide has a wide range of uses, each stemming from its specific properties:

Chemical & industrial

Used as a strong oxidizer in various reactions. It appears in manufacturing of chemicals such as resins and industrial coatings, and as a bleaching agent. In plastics it can act as a catalyst and is used in products requiring disinfecting characteristics.

Pharmaceutical

Owing to its strong oxidizing properties, zinc peroxide is used in the formulation of certain medicines and medical products as an active or protective component. It has roles in disinfectants and specialized therapeutics.

Cosmetics & personal care

Used in products such as disinfecting creams and whitening items. As an active component, zinc peroxide can provide protection against light and environmental factors with functional and cosmetic benefits.

Defense industry

In certain defense applications, zinc peroxide serves as a catalyst/oxidizer in energetic compositions. This stems from its high oxidizing power which can accelerate specific reaction systems.

2) Technical notes for clearing Zinc Peroxide in Iran

Clearing chemicals—especially sensitive/hazardous ones like zinc peroxide—requires precision, expertise, and full awareness of customs and safety rules. Specialized customs brokerage firms play a vital role here.

Customs tariff (HS Code)

Correct HS classification is critical. Zinc Peroxide is typically under 2811.29; in Iran’s national tariff, a sample line is 28112900. Entering the wrong code can cause delays, extra costs, or penalties. Expert brokers ensure accurate coding in the declaration.

Safety & transport regulations

Due to its reactivity (and potential flammability in certain formulations), zinc peroxide is subject to strict transport rules. Packaging, labeling, and storage must comply with international standards: impact-resistant, moisture-resistant packaging; correct hazard labels; suitable vehicles with temperature/ventilation control where required. Qualified logistics partners are recommended.

Required import permits

Depending on end use, permits may be required from the Food & Drug Administration, Environmental Protection Organization, and authorities for hazardous chemicals. These ensure the imported material meets national safety and health standards. Experienced brokers can expedite permit workflows and prevent delays.

Quality control & lab testing

Given sensitivity in industrial/medical uses, shipments often undergo strict QC. Customs may sample and send to accredited labs to verify standards. Proactive COA/SDS and pre-entry quality documentation help avoid delays.

Document management

Complete, accurate paperwork is essential: Commercial Invoice, Bill of Lading, Certificate of Origin, and related documents. Errors or gaps cause delays and extra costs. Saba Brokerage reviews and submits all documents on time, and can procure any additional paperwork customs requests.

Import/export conditions

Iran imports zinc peroxide mainly from China, India, and some European countries with strong production infrastructure and access to quality inputs.
Exports from Iran are limited due to modest domestic production; however, Middle Eastern and South Asian markets may be potential targets.
