Description:
This is a modern industrial firm which holds the accumulated experience of three generations of a salt refining family, it is located in Puglia region, in the South of Italy.
Sea salt is excavated from Adriatic Sea and then slowly evaporates in salting basins under power of sun and wind until the sodium chloride reaches 25,5° and 30° Baumé (salt concentration - saturation index).
Then the water is removed and sea salt is harvested from the bottom of the salting basins. On average 27 kg of salt are obtained from 1 cubic meter of sea water. The salt is then gathered in huge heaps that resemble white snow mountains.
Then, according to the uses of the salt, it is washed, centrifuged, dried, ground, screened, enriched with iodine and anti-caking agent and packaged for selling. The production consists of:
- Iodized sea salt: sea salt gets enriched with iodine in order to prevent and fight iodine deficiency in the organism, that causes for instance thyroid trouble.
- Whole salt: it is salt partially washed and undried that maintains untouched many oligoelements. It is particularly appreciated by a public that pays attention to genuineness and quality of food.
- Dishwasher salt: specific sodium chloride, its action is totally purifying on water softeners resins.
