Saltverk Is Now Kosher Certified

Icelandic flaky sea salt brand Saltverk has officially met kosher-certification requirements

REYKJAVÍK, Iceland (Oct. 2, 2024) –– Saltverk, the esteemed hand-harvested, sustainable sea salt from Iceland, is proud to announce it is officially kosher certified, meaning every ingredient of the product and the way it is processed are kosher compliant. This important certification underscores Saltverk’s commitment to quality, ensuring that every element of its production adheres to rigorous kosher standards.

Saltverk has earned the stamp of approval by a rabbinic agency verifying that it has checked the product’s ingredients, production facility and production process to ensure all ingredients, derivatives, tools and machinery have no trace of non-kosher substances. In the near future, Saltverk will be officially marked with the “kosher certified” symbol, solely and exclusively owned by the Union of Orthodox Jewish Congregations of America. Consumers can enjoy Saltverk’s premium sea salt with the assurance that it complies fully with kosher law.

With the underlying goal of being as pure and sustainable as possible, Saltverk expands its reach to a broader, more diverse audience via this certification  — ensuring that its unique Icelandic sea salt can be enjoyed by consumers around the world, no matter their dietary restrictions.

“Achieving kosher certification marks a significant milestone for Saltverk, opening doors to new opportunities and reaching a wider audience,” says Saltverk founder Björn Steinar Jónsson. “With a large community following a kosher diet, we saw this as a key step in serving both professional chefs and home cooks who rely on kosher-certified salts to elevate their culinary creations. Now, Saltverk’s exceptional quality can be enjoyed in even more kitchens around the world.”
