Superior TNA-5® Salt

Superior TNA-5® Salt is a high purity, food grade, cubic crystalline Sodium Chloride of variable particle size distribution. This salt is obtained from underground salt deposits by deep well solution mining. The brine is chemically purified and subsequently evaporated by the vacuum pan system, under stringent process control to provide the highest purity and minimal insoluble extraneous matter for salt. This product has the lowest residual sodium sulfate, calcium and magnesium content of all the US Salt grades. The food grade anticaking agent, Yellow Prussiate of Soda, is added in accordance with 21CFR 172.490. When this salt is incorporated into a food product, the additive is considered incidental, non-functional and except from label declaration under 21CFR 101.100(a)(3).

Storage Information & Shelf Life

Superior TNA-5® Salt is chemically stable indefinitely and does not support microbial growth. To retard caking, it should be stored in a dry, covered area at relative humidities below 75%. Cycling salt through the 75% relative humidity zone will rapidly increase the onset of caking. Shelf life is indicative of caking resistance only. Shelf life is from date of manufacture, at storage below 75% relative humidity, as caking resistance.
