About CI
The Chlorine Institute Inc. (CI) founded in 1924, is a technical trade association of companies that are involved in the safe production, distribution and use of chlorine, sodium and potassium hydroxides and sodium hypochlorite, and the distribution and use of hydrogen chloride.
Because of chlorine’s nature and its widespread and varied use, the promotion of its safe handling has long been an accepted responsibility of its producers, packagers, distributors and users. The Institute is the focal point for their combined efforts.
CI’s member companies represent the complete value chain—from chlorine producers to packagers, distributors, users and suppliers. The Institute’s North American producer members account for 98 percent of the total chlorine production capacity of the U.S. and Canada. CI’s packager members now represent 100 percent of the total U. S. market.
