Wherever you see the Climate Neutral Certified label, it means the company is accountable for its greenhouse gas emissions. To earn the label, a company must annually measure cradle-to-customer emissions, implement specific action plans to reduce emissions, and invest in high quality, verified carbon credits.
The certification requirements are detailed in the rigorous, peer-reviewed Climate Neutral Certified Standard. Each company’s application is reviewed for compliance by Change Climate’s certification team.

At Saltverk we believe in reducing our footprint in all that we do; from sourcing to our production process & location, even the places we sell & the transit routes we frequent. We use 100% geothermal energy during our production and much of our day-to-day energy use is from renewable sources. Part of our ethos is a commitment to zero waste where our major byproducts find new life in continued utilization. We’ve had opportunity to expand globally but until there are more sustainable shipping options, we choose to keep our sales close to home where our emissions are less. Instead of routing our US shipments through traditional ports & channels we ship the most direct path possible, at a premium, because it’s more sustainable.
