Zechstein Minerals BV sells mainly bulk products magnesium chloride based on the unique natural "Zechstein Inside" quality.

See also link to Nedmag's website below for topical applications:

Our bulk products, manufactured according to the Zechstein Inside batch protocol for the topical market:

  • Flakes, salt in crystal form per pallet 40 x 25 kg in PP bags, total 1.000 kg , 47 % magnesium chloride.
  • Brine, salt in solution per cubi-container of 1000 litres approx.1300 kg, 31% magnesium chloride.
  • Gel, a gel of the salt in solution per cubi-container of 1.000 litres approx. 1.300 kg, 30 % magnesium chloride. Patented formula.
  • Scrubgel, a gel of the salt in solution, with solid salt particles per cubi- container of 900 litres approx. 1.300 kg. Patented formula.

Can I make Magnesium oil by adding water to Magnesiumchloride flakes?

Our analists in cooperation with the MHI were performing tests and this is their conclusion:
We do not recommend using flakes as a basis for making high concentrated magnesiumoil. The flakes are produced by an evaporating process. The brine from the source is heated up to approximately 160¡ã C and the water is evaporated till a concentration of 47% of magnesium chloride is reached. This concentration represents the right proportions to get magnesium chloride hexahydrate [ MgCl2.6(H2O) ] which gives a stable flake or pellet after crystallization on a cooling-belt. Due to heating for evaporation a very small amount of MgCl2 will decompose to MgOHCl (magnesium hydroxide chloride), MgCO3 (magnesium carbonate) and some HCl (hydrochloric acid) in the vapor stream, on parts per million level. These products are responsible for the white haze that can be seen after dissolving the flakes. These products are not hazardous but are products of the necessary production step to get flakes. For applications up to 5%, such as bath applications (approx 2-8 kg in a bath) the flakes are perfect.
For topical applications with higher concentrations, we recommend the pure natural magnesiumoil straight from the source without any heat treatment. This magnesium oil is especially selected for this application and is secured by the Zechstein Inside batch protocol.
