The inspiration behind SYLT Clay Company began with a collaboration between Dr. Syl Corbett and a team of dedicated formulators determined to harness the power of Canadian glacial clay to support athletic recovery.
Working with professional athletes across hockey, football, triathlon, and running, Dr. Syl explored how mineral-rich glacial clay could be incorporated into high-performance formulations. By optimizing its bioavailability, she helped develop Rock On Athletic Balm that is now used by athletes in the NHL and NBA and endorsed by physiotherapists, chiropractors, and massage therapists as a trusted muscle recovery product.
The broader potential of Canadian glacial clay became clear. Beyond athletic recovery, this mineral-rich sea silt, hand-harvested from the pristine marine coastline of British Columbia, offers benefits for skin health and overall self-care.
SYLT was created to bring this natural resource into everyday skincare, turning this healing clay into effective, accessible products that can easily blend into daily routines. We believe that the closer we connect to nature, the better off we will be. By using natural ingredients derived from the earth and harvested responsibly, we promote thoughtful self-care and a deeper connection between skin, body, and well-being, from the ground up.
