The Future of Searles Valley

With the modern trend of globalization, there is no corner of the world that can escape the constant pressure of world competition. We are driven to cut costs and maximize all our resources without letting go of our commitment to quality, our customers and our people.

At Searles Valley Minerals, we are meeting the global challenge of learning, growing and collaborating with our customers. We are adopting and adapting new automation, new software and new techniques in the lab, plant and packaging. While the fundamental nature of our business hasn’t changed much for 60 to 80 years, there is no end to the process of innovating while discarding obsolete ways. At the same time, we cherish the legacy of our past, pioneer values and environmental resources that represent our children’s future.

PRESERVING THE ENVIRONMENT

Searles Valley Minerals continually advances its environmental protection programs. Our environmental engineers work with geologists and response specialists to create programs specific to conditions at Searles Lake.

Searles Valley Minerals returns the brine streams to the lake in accord with California Regional Quality Control Board and Bureau of Land Management policies. Through this process of continual renewal, the liquid table remains constant. All production and maintenance teams participate in monitoring the use and proper disposal of machine oil and other non-product chemicals to prevent environmental contamination.

"Working in the desert has its compensations. There is nothing like the magic of a beautiful desert sunrise or sunset, and you never have to battle traffic between home and work."
