TCCA acquisition in Brazil

eanardi - 13-4-2016 at 01:56

Hello everyone,

I'd like to know if there's any place i can buy TCCA in Brazil, i searched in pool supply stores and in the internet but couldnt find. Is there any other way rather than importing it?

Look at a place like walmart for the cheap pool chemicals. Almost all pool pucks are TCCA so go for the cheapest you can find.

In some countries there are very harsh restrictions of such chemicals. Also, stores like Walmart do not exist in all countries since most stores in these countries are family owned. I suggest you go look at some fishery supply places, TCCA is used in some countries to treat certain fish parasites.

Around here TCCA is sold in pretty much every big store during summer.

Found it in a Leroy Merlin in the pool supply area, it comes in 200g tablets

Leroy Merlin heh?
Well... I needed to go anyway!
Thanks for the tip :)

So far in specialized stores the prices were around 60 Euros / Kg so I decided to pass

Leroy Merlin doesn't have TCCA. I went there to looking for.

I just have got 10 tablets of 200 grs of 90% pure TCCA as a product called "HCL 200", made by HidroAll.

Enter their pages and look for a revendor near you:
