A new table salt production facility at the Elephant Pass (Alimankada) saltern was officially declared open today (March 29), under the patronage of Minister of Industries and Enterprise Development Sunil Handunnetti.
Equipped with state-of-the-art technology and modern facilities, the factory is capable of producing up to five metric tons of table salt per hour.
The facility will manufacture iodine-mixed table salt branded as “Raja Lunu” in 1kg and 400g retail packs, which will be made available to consumers at an affordable price starting April 1.
