Universal Ph Indicator
Product Code : SCL-CL-11605
Universal Ph Indicator (SKU SCL-CL-11605) is universal indicator test paper covering the full pH 0–14 scale. A strip dipped in a solution changes colour, showing whether the liquid is acidic, neutral or alkaline and roughly how strongly. It is a routine consumable for school science, college chemistry and water-testing practicals. Science Lab Supplies, a laboratory chemicals supplier in India, can dispatch packs from Ambala for school science rooms, college departments, tender contractors and distributors.
Specifications
The universal indicator paper's specifications appear in the table below. In short, it is a paper test strip carrying a mixed indicator, so a single strip gives a colour anywhere from pH 0 to pH 14; it needs no power or calibration, which keeps it practical for large classes and field samples.

Applications and Experiments for the Universal pH Indicator
Universal indicator paper is used wherever students need an approximate pH value rather than a simple acid or base answer. It fits the acids, bases and salts chapters of NCERT science, Class 11 equilibrium, and quick checks of water, soil extracts and household solutions in project work.
- NCERT Class 10 science: estimating the pH of common solutions such as juices, soap solution and dilute acids.
- NCERT Class 7 science: sorting acids, bases and neutral substances.
- Class 11 chemistry: linking the pH scale to ionic equilibrium, then comparing strip colours with a digital pH Meter that resolves 0.1 pH.
- Environmental science projects: checking water samples and soil extracts, with a Bench pH Meter (0.01 pH resolution) for comparison.
Read the strip soon after dipping and compare its colour with a pH colour chart; keep the paper dry and away from acid or ammonia fumes.
Standard Scope of Supply
The Universal Ph Indicator is supplied as universal indicator test paper for the 0–14 pH range, as described above. Pack form and quantity per pack are stated on the quotation. Shelf life depends on the chemical, its grade and storage conditions; ask us for the expiry date of the batch you are quoted.

Request a quote for a single pack or for a year's stock for several laboratories. Each quotation lists packing, delivery time and price for the quantity named, and litmus papers or other chemistry lab equipment in India can be priced on the same document.
With an Importer-Exporter Code as a registered exporter, Science Lab Supplies can ship to buyers in Bangladesh, Zambia, Rwanda, South Africa, Qatar and Sri Lanka. Indicator paper orders can be raised through the contact page, collected in the enquiry cart alongside glassware, or priced against a bid via the lab tender page.
Frequently Asked Questions
What pH range does this universal indicator paper cover?
It covers the full scale from pH 0 to pH 14, so a single strip can tell a strong acid from a weak acid, a neutral liquid or an alkali by its colour.
How is universal indicator different from litmus paper?
Litmus only shows whether a solution is acidic or basic. Universal indicator paper changes through a series of colours, so students can estimate an approximate pH value as well.
Who supplies the Universal Ph Indicator?
This indicator paper is quoted and dispatched by Science Lab Supplies in Ambala, India, and it can be combined with litmus papers, glassware and chemicals for the same laboratory on one quotation.
How should the indicator paper be stored?
Keep it closed, dry and away from light and laboratory fumes. Shelf life depends on storage, so ask for the expiry date of the batch on your quotation.
