Boron in pharmaceuticals

Ensure moist, comfortable, and safe eye-care products with high-purity boron

Each year in the U.S. alone, more than 100 million people use eye drops and eye wash to seek relief from discomfort.

With so many people relying on these products to keep their vision healthy, you shoulder tremendous responsibility for producing safe and effective solutions. Boron is often key to achieving these properties. When applied in small quantities, boric acid retains moisture, controls pH, and provides relief from irritants.

As with any pharmaceutical application, the partner you source raw materials from is not a choice to be taken lightly. Leading eyecare product manufacturers and distributors trust U.S. Borax to deliver high-quality borates with exceptional purity to meet requirements in the tightly regulated pharmaceutical industry.

Our exceptional compliance record starts at our Coudekerque operations, where our refined borates are subject to an additional refining process to ensure low levels of elemental impurities.
