Quality & certifications
A certificate means nothing without the sampling method behind it
We take composite samples during loading, retain a reference sample for twelve months per consignment, and issue a certificate of analysis against contracted ceilings rather than generic typical values.
Certifications
Certified systems, audited annually
ISO 9001:2015
Quality Management System
Documented process control from pond intake to container seal, with annual surveillance audits.
ISO 22000 / HACCP
Food Safety Management
Hazard analysis across the food-grade line, including metal detection and allergen-free declaration.
ISO 14001:2015
Environmental Management
Brine balance, wetland monitoring and zero-discharge water management across the saline fields.
ISO 45001:2018
Occupational Health & Safety
Harvest fleet, plant and jetty operations under one behavioural safety programme.
Kosher & Halal
Dietary Certification
Annual certification covering refined food-grade and retail packing lines.
SGS / Intertek
Third-Party Inspection
Independent draft survey, sampling and pre-shipment analysis on request for every consignment.
Laboratory
The test methods we run
Argentometric titration
NaCl assay by silver nitrate titration against a standardised chloride reference on every production shift.
Gravimetric sulphate
Barium chloride precipitation to quantify sulphate, the impurity most often limiting chemical-grade acceptance.
EDTA complexometry
Calcium and magnesium determination to protect membrane-cell and ion-exchange applications.
Sieve granulometry
Full sieve stack analysis with retained-fraction reporting against the contracted particle distribution.
Moisture & insolubles
Oven-drying at 110 °C and filtration residue weighing, both reported on the certificate of analysis.
Trace metals
Lead, arsenic, cadmium and mercury screened through an accredited external laboratory per production lot.
Traceability
From pond to bill of lading
- 01
Each crystalliser pond is assigned a harvest lot number recorded at drainage.
- 02
Lot numbers follow the material through washing, drying and screening.
- 03
Packing records link every jumbo bag and pallet to its production lot.
- 04
The certificate of analysis and bill of lading carry the same lot reference.
