Reduct Salt’s revolutionary blend: same flavor, healthier food

16 Oct 2026

Discover how Reduct Salt combines mineral salts to reduce sodium by 30–35% while preserving flavor, texture, and food quality. Developed through MVG’s expertise, this innovative salt alternative offers food manufacturers a practical 1:1 replacement, improved nutritional value, and benefits for sustainable food production.

Salt is an essential ingredient in food production, contributing to flavor, texture, preservation, and overall product quality. However, excessive sodium consumption remains a major public health concern.

Traditional refined salt consists primarily of sodium chloride, with only minimal amounts of other naturally occurring minerals. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), adults should consume less than 5 grams of salt per day, equivalent to approximately 2 grams of sodium.

In Italy, average salt consumption has historically been around twice this recommended level, highlighting the need for practical sodium reduction solutions.

Reduct Salt addresses this challenge through an innovative mineral-based formulation that reduces sodium content by 30–35% while maintaining the taste and functional properties of conventional salt.

Traditional Salt and Sodium ConsumptionRefined table salt contains approximately 98% sodium chloride, with only trace quantities of other minerals such as magnesium, calcium, and potassium.

Although salt is essential for food preparation, excessive sodium intake is associated with increased blood pressure and a higher risk of cardiovascular disease.

The World Health Organization recommends limiting daily salt consumption to less than 5 grams for adults. However, average consumption in Italy has historically reached approximately 10 grams per day.

Reducing sodium in everyday foods is therefore an important priority for public health and the food industry.

A Unique Formula: Less Sodium, Same Great TasteReduct Salt offers an innovative alternative to conventional salt through a carefully developed mineral-based formulation.

Its key advantages include:

• 30–35% less sodium compared with conventional salt.
  
  
• Additional magnesium, an essential mineral that supports normal physiological functions.
  
  
• Preserved flavor and saltiness, maintaining the familiar taste consumers expect.
  
  
• Functional properties that support food preservation, texture, and product quality.
  
  

This combination enables manufacturers to improve nutritional profiles while maintaining the characteristics of their existing products.

Innovation Meets Industrial ExpertiseReduct Salt was developed by MVG, a company with more than 40 years of experience in salt production and distribution.

Founded in 1980, MVG has built expertise across food, agriculture, livestock, and industrial applications.

Research into an innovative reduced-sodium solution began in 2018, leading to Reduct Salt production in 2021.

The product was designed specifically for industrial food manufacturing, providing a direct 1:1 replacement for conventional salt without requiring modifications to recipes or production processes.

Reduct Salt also supports product shelf life, enhances texture and cutting properties, and can reduce the need for polyphosphates in certain applications.

A Commitment to Environmental SustainabilityBeyond nutritional innovation, Reduct Salt reflects MVG's commitment to more sustainable industrial practices.

The company uses environmentally conscious packaging, recycled-material pallets, and energy from renewable sources.

According to MVG, Reduct Salt can also contribute to a 10–20% reduction in chloride levels in processing waste, supporting more efficient resource management.

A Smarter Approach to Sodium ReductionReduct Salt brings together nutritional improvement, industrial efficiency, and environmental responsibility.

By maintaining the functionality of conventional salt while reducing sodium, it offers food manufacturers a practical solution for creating healthier products without compromising consumer satisfaction.

Same flavor. Less sodium. Healthier food.
