Prevents
refreezing that can harm concrete
Single ingredients like Calcium Chloride refreeze quickly
allowing repeated freeze/thaw cycles to potentially
damage concrete. But SSS Ice Melt is gentler on concrete
because as it melts it forms a unique brine that breaks
the bond between ice and the surface. This brine prevents
refreezing in a way single ingredients cant.
No other ice
melter is as friendly as
SSS Ice Melt to
grass, trees, concrete & more!
Some ice melters say they won't harm vegetation when
"used as recommended." But "recommendations" often say
"avoid contact with vegetation." For good reason.
Calcium chloride is "hygroscopic"; it will absorb
moisture. In effect, it "sucks up" water - and can burn
or seriously damage vegetation. You've seen once-green
vegetation near CaCl2-treated areas. It's not a pretty
sight.
Thaw-and-refreeze cycles: the worst enemy of concrete.
And any ice melter that refreezes quickly,
can be a problem on concrete. What's more, studies have
shown that concentrated calcium chloride and ammonium
sulphate chemically attack concrete. Products containing
these ingredients should be avoided. SSS Ice Melt not
only provides long-term melting without refreezing, it
requires no special precautions. SSS Ice Melt is
non-hygroscopic - it won't absorb moisture. It's
formulated to be gentle to plants. So, when used as
directed, SSS Ice Melt… Won't harm grass, trees, shrubs
or other vegetation. Won't damage properly air-entrained
concrete drives, walks and lots. Period.
Maximum
ice melting action
Simple blends are merely different ingredients mixed
in the bag. But SSS Ice Melt is manufactured with
a custom blending process that provides synergistic
action for maximum ice melting power. With SSS Ice Melt
you get effective performance at temperatures below
0°F/-18°C.
