Driver delivers ready-to-use liquid salt for water softening with tanker

Water softening systems use brine, a solution that consists of salt and water. Users can make their own brine by pouring salt tablets into the water softening system’s salt tank. The salt dissolves and the brine regenerates the resins in the water softening system which remove the calcium from the water. Replenishing the water softening systems can prove to be a job that requires a fair amount of muscle, as the salt for water softening is usually supplied in 25 kg bags.

But the added amount of work doesn’t stop there. Softening water also means checking salt stocks, ordering in extra supplies, unloading trucks and stacking the pallets in the warehouse. All in all, a lot of time goes into processing salt for water softening.

Liquid salt for water softening is a very rewarding  prospect for companies that require a lot of softened process water.
