Organic and sustainable sea salt

Zeeuwsche Zoute: Sustainable, Pure and Perfect for Organic Products

Organic products are essential for a sustainable future for our health as well as for our planet. Fortunately, you find them more and more often in supermarkets, specialty stores and on menus. But true sustainability is in the details. That is why it is important to choose quality, pure ingredients. And when it comes to salt, Zeeuwsche Zoute is the conscious choice.

Although many of our customers are surprised: salt cannot currently be certified as organic in Europe. This is because of the regulations in force, and therefore not because of the properties of our product. An adjustment is now being worked on at the European level, but for the time being organic salt is not yet formally allowed.

Yet we go beyond the standard. Our production method is sustainable, innovative and circular. And good news: a number of our compound products – such as black garlic salt, wakame salt and other flavor varieties – are certified organic with the SKAL seal of approval. In addition to our sea salt, these also contain organic ingredients that are certifiable under current legislation.

What makes Zeeuwsche Zoute unique?

There is a world of difference between natural sea salt and industrial table salt. Although both consist of sodium and chloride, the sourcing and processing differ fundamentally. We extract our salt from pure Eastern Scheldt water and use green electricity to slowly evaporate the water. We work without chemicals, without anti-caking agents, and therefore without e-numbers. Even our residual water gets a second life – as rinse water for window cleaners in the region.

Our salt is harvested in a modern but artisanal way. The texture and taste are unsurpassed: rich, powerful and with a unique mineral balance created by its origin from the Eastern Scheldt. The coarse grains are crunchy and provide a pure taste experience in dishes – something star chefs and top pastry chefs have long discovered.
