Impurity Standards supply to Nigeria
Buyers in Nigeria can order any of the 20,060 products in our impurity reference standards division. In Nigeria the strongest demand is from pharmaceutical manufacturing, oil & gas and paints & coatings. Regular consignments go to industrial centres such as Lagos (Ikeja, Agbara, Ota), Port Harcourt and Kano. Typical customers for this division are pharma QC and analytical development labs, regulatory affairs teams and contract research organisations.
Supplying impurity reference standards to Nigeria
By sea, containers and LCL lots take roughly 25–35 days to Apapa (Lagos) and Tin Can Island (Lagos). Air cargo to Lagos Murtala Muhammed (LOS) takes 3–6 days, which suits small and urgent packs. The relevant authority is NAFDAC (National Agency for Food & Drug Administration and Control). Our export desk lines up the COA, GHS SDS and shipping documents to match. Common grades for this division are Impurity reference standard with characterisation data, Secondary / working standard, Stable-isotope labelled standard and Nitrosamine (NDSRI) standard.

Imports start with Form M, opened through an authorised dealer bank, which ties the transaction to foreign-exchange and customs processing. Most chemicals and all APIs need a NAFDAC import permit obtained by the importer before shipment, so share the permit details with us before we load. Some regulated products also require a SONCAP certificate from the Standards Organisation of Nigeria. Keep the Form M number, NAFDAC permit and our invoice consistent. Dangerous goods must meet IMDG or IATA packing and declaration requirements.
