Company insight
A unique partner in sodium reduction
For more than a decade, Saltwell AB has been passionate about working to improve people’s health by reducing the sodium levels in food. The company discovered a unique one grain salt in the Atacama Desert of Chile, which forms the basis for all its solutions.
altwell’s one salt grain consists of sodium chloride, potassium chloride and other minerals all contributing to the performance of the product. Saltwell is a sodium reduction alternative, which in most cases can be switched 1:1 with ordinary salt, without compromising with taste or functionality of the end product.

Refined to perfection
In Cyprus, the raw material is carefully washed and cleaned before packing. The production plant has a great deal of experience refining salt products. It was with careful accuracy that Saltwell was able to make the necessary adjustments to refine and process the unique one grain without changing its characteristics. The process consists of multiple sieves, cyclones, magnets, dryers, colour sorters and washing in several different cycles all to deliver a consistent food grade quality ingredient.
Every batch of Saltwell is analysed by an external laboratory before it is sent out to the company’s customers to ensure the highest food grade quality. There are no chemicals involved in the production and no products except for salt are processed in the factory – this avoids risk of foreign chemicals in the end product or cross-contamination. The company audits the production site several times per year and has all the necessary certificates. Customers are always welcome to make their own audits or to visit the plant.
