What is a salt room?

A salt room is an imitation of a natural salt cave: walls and ceiling covered with salt, salt on the floor, and a halogenerator that fills the air with fine salt aerosol.

How a salt room is built

On average 2.5 to 4 tonnes of natural rock salt are used. Walls and ceiling are covered with salt plaster or Himalayan salt bricks, and salt is scattered on the floor. We use our own CE-certified binder, so no metal mesh is needed.

The role of the halogenerator

The salt on the walls creates the look; the halogenerator creates the salt aerosol. A wall-mounted unit sits outside the room and blows only the finest aerosol through an opening into the room.

Atmosphere

Ambient light, sound and video, toys for children and comfortable furniture turn the room into a place to relax.

Hygiene

High hygiene is maintained through regular cleaning and adequate ventilation. Only pure salt without additives is used in the halogenerator.
