The Salt Industry
Salt is an essential commodity for our society and human wellbeing. It is impossible to imagine life without it.
This gift from Mother Nature is also indispensible for numerous industries that produce many of the foods and products we use every day.
Whilst salt it is relatively easy to source, seasonal demand, timing, natural disasters and inadequate supplies repeatedly result in fluctuating prices.
It is therefore essential for governments and businesses to collaborate with a partner who has a long-term vision and an adequate approach. Zoutdepot has the expertise, outstanding service and ability to react quickly to market needs.
Salt is used in some 14,000 different products. Since the Roman period (when they evaporated it in lead pans), production processes have changed to cope with increased demand. For example, mass production, together with adequate availability of road salt, enables us to drive safely winter. |
