K+S | 130 years of tradition

We enrich life, because we value it.

With its mineral products, K+S helps farmers to secure the world's food supply, keeps industries running, enriches the lives of consumers and ensures safety in winter. We serve constantly rising demand mainly from production sites in Europe, North and South America as well as our global distribution network. We strive for sustainability because we acknowledge our responsibility towards people, the environment, the communities and the economy in the regions in which we operate.

Focus on four business segments

K+S's business is focused on four segments: agriculture, industry, consumers, and communities. The same applies in all segments: The customer is the focus of our activities.

Agriculture

With our large selection of soil, fertigation and leaf fertilizers, and together with our expert advice, we support farmers around the world in achieving high yields and getting the best quality out of their harvested products.

Industry

We offer potassium, magnesium and salt products in various purity grades and granulations as well as numerous services for many industries - all from a single source.

Consumer

Whether as a spice, culinary salt or preservative: salt has been an essential component of our diet for thousands of years. We provide a steady supply.

Communities

With our de-icing salts, we provide clear and safe roads in cities and communities. We rely on a particularly pure and effective mixture of fine and coarse salt crystals.

Over 90 locations on five continents

Regionally sourced, worldwide. K+S has production sites in Europe, North, Central, and South America, with additional distribution sites in Africa and Asia.
