About Zechsal
In the more than 10 years that Zechsal has existed, it has developed into a specialist in natural health products with pure magnesium as its foundation. Zechsal’s assortment continues to grow with unique innovations and accessories. For example, Zechsal also offers omega-3 products, CBD, and MSM. In addition, it carries several trusted brands such as Wandelwol, Chi, and Erica. With Zechsal products, we aim to contribute to a healthier and more relaxed world!
History of Zechsal
Zechsal was founded in 2010. Mercedes has been involved since the beginning and now runs the company as Managing Director. With her background in the food industry and her strong belief that magnesium is essential for health, Mercedes is guiding Zechsal in the right direction.
In 2017, Zechsal moved to its current location on Van Stolbergweg in Veendam and has grown from 9 to 14 employees. The current building houses a spacious showroom where visitors can receive personal advice without obligation and purchase all products directly.

The name Zechsal
The name Zechsal is a combination of “Zechstein” and “sal.” Zechstein refers to a geological period around 250 million years ago, when a vast inland sea covered much of Northern Europe: the Zechstein Sea.
Over the centuries, this sea gradually dried up—much like the Dead Sea today—leaving behind a rich layer of minerals, including pure magnesium chloride. This valuable magnesium salt forms the foundation of Zechsal and is still used in our products today.
The second part of our name, sal, means “salt” in Latin. It also refers to the word “salary,” as salt was once so valuable that people were paid with it. This highlights just how precious and unique our ancient magnesium salt truly is.
