Rock Salt Brown Large Bag

Rock Salt Brown Large Bag Is the ideal product if cost is a leading factor.

If the salt is going to be spread over a large area such as roads or car parks then this is the perfect product. As a result of its cost effectiveness.

These mines vary in depth from 100 metres to a mile or more.

Within the mines there are networks of pathways formed by the areas from which salt has already been extracted, and they are used as roads for mining vehicles to move from one part of the mine to another,

and also used by the personnel to move from the shafts to the working face.

A machine similar to the pneumatic drill for digging up roads is used on the working face.

It has a rotating head carrying tungsten-carbide tips, which bores into the salt.

The lumps are then taken to a crushing and screening plant, without the need to be crushed by a feeder-breaker first.

Care must be taken to ensure that the mine is stable by leaving substantial pillars of salt to support the mine roof.

This technique has been used for hundreds of years, and at Winsford you can see the pillars left by the original miners of the 1840s.

Before storage, the salt is treated with an anti-caking agent which will stop the pieces coagulating.

This ensures that it can be held in local storage depots, ready for use as soon as the bad weather sets in!

When buying rock salt, it’s important to only buy rock salt that’s been tested and recognised by the British Standards Institute.

BS 3247 : 1991 is the certificate given to rock salt that has met these standards, and all rock salt sold by Lancashire Hygiene Limited meets these standards.
