Sea salt has been made using various methods since the beginning of time; Evaporation of seawater occurs naturally at the shoreline areas of all the oceans of the world; However, only rudimentary attempts have ever been made to harness and control this natural process; -----Typically, seawater is trapped in shallow ponds by salt farmers and left to dry in the sun; These dried salts are then manually harvested; Commercial and specialty salts are further heated and processed to remove impurities, which destroys the delicate mineral spectrum; Gourmet salts are not heated, leaving in the impurities from the seawater and the air; In addition, age-old harvesting techniques only skim the flowering of the salt, leaving behind the full complement of crucial trace minerals, elements and electrolytes that can only be captured by complete evaporation;-----Solar Seal technology harnesses the natural processes of salt drying but takes many critical steps forward in order to achieve what we call "who...

| Goods and Services | Sea salt has been made using various methods since the beginning of time; Evaporation of seawater occurs naturally at the shoreline areas of all the oceans of the world; However, only rudimentary attempts have ever been made to harness and control this natural process; -----Typically, seawater is trapped in shallow ponds by salt farmers and left to dry in the sun; These dried salts are then manually harvested; Commercial and specialty salts are further heated and processed to remove impurities, which destroys the delicate mineral spectrum; Gourmet salts are not heated, leaving in the impurities from the seawater and the air; In addition, age-old harvesting techniques only skim the flowering of the salt, leaving behind the full complement of crucial trace minerals, elements and electrolytes that can only be captured by complete evaporation;-----Solar Seal technology harnesses the natural processes of salt drying but takes many critical steps forward in order to achieve what we call "whole salt;" This superior sea salt is distinguished by both maximum purity and the complete mineral-element-electrolyte spectrum inherent in ocean water, in its ideal, naturally occuring balance: apx 84% sodium chloride, apx; 16% trace minerals, electrolytes and elements; Virtually every other salt in the world is 98%+ sodium chloride;-----In the proprietary Solar Seal process, unlike traditional and commercial methods, seawater is first purified to bottled-water standards, then fed into one of two, hermetically sealed containment systems: a linked grid of solar evaporator pans, or an all-glass, sealed solar drying house; In Solar Seal-again, unlike all other sea salt harvesting processes-no human contact or airborne pollutants can contaminate the growing of perfect crystals with all the prized properties of "whole salt;"-----Evaporation occurs naturally during the drying period using only trapped solar heat; FDA-approved harvesting techniques are then used to remove the sea salt from the pans or building to be packaged for shipment to customers around the world;-----Pure rain water is also released by the seawater over the entire drying period; This rain water is collected by a process inherent in Solar Seal technology and drawn off for use as bottled drinking water; Again, only FDA-approved techniques are applied throughout this process to produce the highest quality drinking water;-----Solar Seal is the most advanced technology ever utilized to produce natural sea salt; It harnesses naturally occurring processes and marries these to advanced technology, resulting in a product that is superior in every way to every other sea salt in the world |
