Product Description
The word remote might have been invented to describe the Westfjords of Iceland. After finishing my studies I wanted to create something that honored and built upon traditional Icelandic food methods in a sustainable way. In 2011, Reykjanes in the Westfjords attracted me exactly for those particular reasons, its remoteness, natural resources and history of salt making.
The Danish king established salt production in the 18th century using geothermal energy to produce salt. The production stopped a few decades later and the tradition of salt making in Iceland came to an end.
But the tradition was not lost forever, in 2011 Saltverk was founded and reestablished salt making in Iceland. Making sustainable, hand harvested products of high quality is the passion that has guided us along the way. Today, Saltverk salt is used in many of the best restaurants and in the homes of food enthusiasts around the world.

Give your cooking a taste of the rugged north knowing each flake of our salt is 100% natural.
Process
During the whole process we use 206° F (93° C) hot geyser water from the hot springs of Reykjanes, where we use it in the preheating, boiling and drying process of our salt. Geothermal energy is the sole energy source used, which means that during our whole process we leave zero carbon footprints on the environment and no CO2 and CH4 emissions.
Harvest
We pump the seawater to open pans where we preheat it until it becomes a strong brine, a salinity level of 17-20%. Then we boil the brine until white crystals appear on the surface and slowly fall to the bottom of the pan. Afterward we draw the pan and drain any remaining liquid. Then it is dried and put into packaging.

Saltverk is one of the few entirely sustainable flaky sea salt producers in the world. The flaky sea salt is handmade pyramid-like crystal salt flakes that contain the flavor and taste of the Nordic region from which the raw materials used in it are derived.
