Natural Dead Sea Edible Salt
Production Process and Conditions
 100% genuine natural table salt is produced naturally in the Dead Sea by evaporation of the Dead Sea water and crystallization of the salt in ponds, without any industrial interference, without the use of any chemical or artificial materials, with no additives and with no chemical agents.
The natural crude salt is washed with Dead Sea waters, dried, screened and packed on the same day into bags, packages and mills, according to customers’ orders.
The special conditions are exclusively related to the natural Dead Sea salt:
• The Dead Sea water contains 32-34% salts compared to 3-4% in other seas and oceans
• The Dead Sea salt contains 21 natural minerals compared to only 9 in other salts
• The Dead Sea lies 417 meters below sea level, which creates unique climatic conditions that contribute inherent advantages to the natural salt:
1. Extreme heat - 30 to 45 degrees Celsius almost all year long .
2. Very low relative humidity - 30 to 45 % .
3. Extraordinary air conditions due to world's highest barometric pressure and highest oxygen concentration in this lowest altitude of more than minus 400 meters below sea level.
4. The air is unpolluted and virtually free of allergens.
5. The sea water is clean and there is no water pollution whatsoever .
6. Unique sun rays as a result of the longer optical path length in the lowest point on earth.
7. Minimum rainfall of 0.1-0.3 inches during 3-4 months a year .
8. Underground thermo - mineral sources, create in the Dead Sea, this unique mineral combination not to be found in any other site of salt production.
