Irish Salt Mining

About

In its Kilroot Mine near Carrickfergus, Irish Salt Mining and Exploration (ISME) has been providing de-icing rock salt since 1965.

Using ground-breaking technology the rock salt is produced by room and pillar dry mining with all processes carried out on site.

For more than 40 years Irish Salt Mining & Exploration has been at the heart of road safety, providing the best quality rock salt to keep our roads ice-free.

On average approximately half a million tonnes of rock salt is produced and supplied throughout Ireland and the UK by their sales division, Salt Sales Company.
