Our Story
Whitby Sea salt crystals have minimum impact on the environment but maximum flavour.
About Us
As a small family run business our aim is to produce Whitby Sea Salt using the most environmentally friendly methods available. Years of research and testing has lead us to use solar evaporation producing the most natural, environmentally friendly salt crystals. Our minimal impact on the environment is continued into our Whitby Sea Salt packaging which is 100% plastic free and is designed and manufactured to be 100% recyclable. We are passionate about maintaining the beautiful environment that we live in.
Whitby Sea Salt is made up of naturally formed crystals, sourced entirely from Whitby's historic coastline. Whitby's history is enthralling and rich, making it a destination loved by many. Whitby's coast is abundant with sea life such as dolphins, porpoises, seals, 'sharks' and a wide variety of fish and molluscs. Helping Whitby to gain its reputation for amazing sea food and one of the best destinations for fish and chips in the country.
Our Whitby Sea Salt is made using centuries old methods of only the wind and the sun, ensuring all the minerals found in the sea are retained in the salt. The whole process from the collection in the sea to the production of the salt is done by hand, producing a distinct salt worthy of its seafaring heritage.
Our Sustainability Aims
At Whitby Sea Salt we are inspired by our historic and wildlife rich coastline, we aim to help maintain this area for many decades and generations to come. We act responsibly for our people, our coast, our harbour, and of course our environment. Working on the Whitby Coast is a daily reminder of how beautiful our land and sea is, only driving our passion to maintain it.
At Whitby Sea Salt we have taken every step we can to reduce our impact on our environment and our planet.
Our products, including our packaging, are made in Britain helping us to reduce our carbon footprint. Our Whitby Sea Salt packaging is 100% plastic free and all of our packaging is 100% recyclable, even the water evaporated into the atmosphere from our salt production will find its way back into the sea and give us our salt once more.
We aim to produce our products with the absolute minimum impact to our planet.
Where would we be without salt ‘n’ Vinegar
British fish ‘n’ chips were originally served in a wrapping of old newspapers but this practise has now largely ceased, however we have developed this unique, traditional, British feature and used it in our Whitby Sea Salt Packaging, to remain as authentic as possible.
