Notice Title

GB-Wiltshire: Supply of Industrial Methylated Spirits, IMS

Notice Description

To procure 98% IDA (Ethanol 98% denatured with methanol; a.k.a. industrial methylated spirits, IMS). Initially we require 10x 205L drums (2050L) but with the option to buy another 5 drums (estimate) if required. The IDA is a consumable item, used to support a scientific research trial, with none left over at the end. As far as I know this is a one-time usage of a large amount of IDA, for our specific purpose.
