ISO 9001

All items with the exception of BIOCARB®,  Sulfate of Potash and Sodium Chloride.

 

ISO 9001 is the international standard that specifies requirements for a quality management system (QMS). Organizations use the standard to demonstrate the ability to consistently provide products and services that meet customer and regulatory requirements. “ISO certified” means that an organization has developed, maintains and continuously improves its business processes. This is accomplished by measuring and comparing business performance to appropriate quality standards.

Searles Valley Minerals is committed to manufacturing and delivering products and services which will satisfy or exceed our customer’s expectations. We believe that our focus on continual improvement and the total quality process will provide the highest value to our customers, employees, investors, suppliers and the community.

We will strive to improve the effectiveness of the processes described in our Quality Management System under ISO 9001 and to assure that the objectives are communicated and understood throughout the company.

Kosher

Soda Ash and Sodium Sulfate Only

 

The word kosher means proper or acceptable and it has informally entered the English language with that meaning. But kosher laws have their origin in the Bible, and are detailed in the Talmud and the other codes of Jewish traditions. They have been applied through the centuries to ever-changing situations, and these rulings, both ancient and modern, govern OU kosher certification.

Kosher Certification is the stamp of kosher approval by a rabbinic Agency verifying they have checked the products ingredients, production facility and actual production to ensure all ingredients, derivatives, tools and machinery have no trace of non-kosher substances. The Kosher Certified symbol assures consumers that both the actual product and its production adhere to all Kosher Law requirements.
