Dominion have just taken latest technology to one of the country's oldest companies by updating the website of The Salters' Company, one of the Twelve Great City Livery Companies dating back to the fourteenth century.

The Salters' Company was originally charged with regulating the salt trade, including that at Maldon, Essex, receiving its first royal licence from King Richard II in 1394. Some members, known as 'Dry Salters' also dealt in such items as flax, hemp and chemical preparations.

Today the Salters' Institute plays a key role in developing the chemists of the future, by supporting chemistry teaching and encouraging young people to further their studies and careers in this field.

Dominion enjoyed the challenge of adding a touch of technology to a company that has been trading for over six hundred years. "Our aim has been to enhance one of the City's most prestigious names with a website that educates and excites people. We want to show how IT can transform words and images on a screen, with dynamic results," says Dominion's Managing Director, Paul Lasky.
