GUSTOSAL® Nitrite Curing Salt 0.5–0.6% NaNO₂, 25 kg
GUSTOSAL® Nitrite Curing Salt is manufactured by Salinen Austria AG for meat processing applications. The product is made from vacuum salt and contains 0.5–0.6% sodium nitrite. It is used in the production of sausages, ham, bacon and other meat products where nitrite curing salt is specified in the processing formulation.
Advantages
Controlled Nitrite Concentration
GUSTOSAL® contains 0.5–0.6% sodium nitrite, a concentration widely used in European meat processing. For technologists, this provides a clear basis for formulation calculations and avoids the need to handle concentrated nitrite preparations.
Vacuum Salt Base
The product is made from vacuum-evaporated salt produced by Salinen Austria. Consistency of the salt base supports stable product characteristics and repeatable processing performance.
Uniform Nitrite Distribution
Nitrite is added at low levels, making uniform distribution throughout the salt carrier critical. A homogeneous blend supports consistent production results from batch to batch.
Austrian Salt-Making Expertise
GUSTOSAL® is produced by Salinen Austria, a manufacturer with long-standing specialisation in salt products for the food industry. Control of blending, nitrite concentration and specification consistency is integral to the manufacturing process.
Applications
For the production of cooked, cooked-smoked and dry-cured sausages, ham, bacon and other meat products where nitrite curing salt is used in accordance with the formulation.
Used by:
• meat processing plants;
• sausage manufacturers;
• delicatessen meat producers;
• ham and bacon producers;
• small and medium-sized meat processors.

FAQ
How does 0.5–0.6% nitrite curing salt differ from Cure #1 or Prague Powder?
European nitrite curing salt typically contains 0.5–0.6% sodium nitrite. Cure #1 and Prague Powder use different nitrite concentrations, so the products are not interchangeable on a like-for-like dosage basis.
Why is the homogeneity of the salt–nitrite blend important?
Nitrite is used in formulations at low inclusion rates. Uniform distribution throughout the salt carrier supports formulation consistency and repeatable results between production batches.
Why can the same formulation produce a different colour in the finished product?
Colour is affected by meat quality, pH, temperature profile, holding time, heat treatment and other process parameters. Nitrite curing salt is only one of the factors involved in colour formation.
Can nitrite curing salt be replaced with ordinary food salt?
Where a formulation specifies nitrite curing salt, ordinary food salt is not an equivalent substitute. It does not perform the functions of nitrite in the relevant production processes.
Can pure sodium nitrite be used instead of nitrite curing salt?
Most production processes use nitrite curing salt with a controlled nitrite concentration. This allows formulations to be prepared without separately dosing pure sodium nitrite.
What information should be provided for product selection?
Please specify the type of finished product, its use in the formulation, documentation requirements, packaging format and estimated consumption.
