Sponsor Profile

Salt is one of the most widely used minerals on Earth. It's a natural preservative that inhibits the growth of bacteria, and an essential element in our diet. It helps regulate our blood pressure and volume, facilitates the transmission of nerve impulses, and plays a vital role in heart and muscle contractions

We use salt to clear our roadways and stabilize our roadbeds as well as to maintain the conditioning systems that soften hard water. In a single year, Canadians can use more than ten million tonnes of the stuff. In fact, it's estimated there are more than 14,000 uses for this marvelous compound.

The Canadian Salt Company Limited is Canada’s largest salt manufacturer. The Company is engaged in the recovery, processing and sale of salt, and provides over 200 evaporated and rock salt products under its well-known Windsor and Safe-T-Salt brand names.

Products made from evaporated salt (salt recovered from brine) are used in household and food products, as well as for agricultural, water softening and industrial purposes. Those made from mined rock salt are also sold to household and industrial markets for ice control, and to the water softening and general industrial trades. The government agencies are among the largest users of the Company's products for highway ice control.
