Frequently asked questions about salt

A few pointers on our products, for buyers discovering our salt categories.

What is the difference between edible salt and industrial salt?

Edible salt (sea salt) is intended for human consumption and the food industry. Industrial salt, also called technical salt, is reserved for professional processes: water treatment, manufacturing, and other industrial uses.

What is de-icing salt (road salt)?

De-icing salt, also known as road salt, is used to melt ice and snow on roads. It is used by municipalities and road maintenance companies in Canada, Europe and Nordic markets.

Where does Sel du Saloum's salt come from?

Our salt is produced in Senegal, in the Saloum region, an area historically associated with sea salt production in West Africa.

What packaging is the salt available in?

Salt is available in bags, big bags or bulk. Other formats are possible on request, depending on your handling chain and mode of transport.

Which countries do you export to?
