Virtual International supplies high-purity industrial Salt (Sodium Chloride), an essential alkali chemical for a vast range of applications. We source our salt from clean, reliable deposits and process it to achieve exceptional chemical purity and consistent particle size distribution. As a fundamental raw material, Sodium Chloride is the primary source of sodium and chlorine ions for the chemical industry. It also functions as a highly effective de-icing agent, a water softening regenerant, and a critical component in food processing. Industries worldwide depend on our reliable supply of industrial salt to maintain efficient and successful operations.

Key Features & Benefits

• Exceptional Purity (NaCl > 99.5%): Our industrial salt contains minimal impurities, making it ideal for sensitive chemical processes like the Chlor-alkali process.
• Controlled Particle Sizing: We offer a variety of grades, from fine powder to coarse crystals and pellets, to match the specific requirements of your application.
• Excellent Solubility: Our salt dissolves rapidly and completely in water, ensuring maximum efficiency in brining and solution-based processes.
• Effective De-icing Performance: It efficiently lowers the freezing point of water, making it a reliable choice for road and highway de-icing.
• Cost-Effective & Versatile: Salt provides one of the most economical sources for sodium and chlorine ions, serving countless applications across different industries.

Major Industrial Applications

Chemical Manufacturing:

• The Chlor-alkali industry uses it as the primary feedstock to produce chlorine, sodium hydroxide (caustic soda), and soda ash.

Water Treatment:

• Water softening systems use salt to regenerate the ion exchange resins that remove hardness minerals (calcium and magnesium) from water.

De-icing:

• Municipalities and businesses apply it to roads, sidewalks, and parking lots to prevent ice formation and ensure public safety during winter.

Food Processing & Agriculture:

• Food manufacturers use it as a preservative, a flavor enhancer, and a control agent in fermentations.
• In agriculture, it serves as a nutrient for livestock in the form of salt licks and feed additives.
