IceMelz eco® consists of active granular de-icing material that is free of any chloride or salt components. As a result, IceMelz eco® is a sustainable solution for combatting slipperiness caused by snow and/or ice. In addition to being environmentally friendly, it is non-corrosive to metals, non-damaging to vegetation, and is pet-safe. IceMelz eco® is cost competitive as it maintains its key characteristics at extreme low temperature and dissolves slowly, remaining active five times longer than traditional road salts.
“We are honored to add Cleanbest to our portfolio of highly respected supplier partnerships,” said Dennis Schmeits, ChemPoint’s EMEA Regional Business Director. “Our innovative business model and skilled customer service team ensure that customers are offered the right focus and support for specialty offerings like the IceMelz eco®. ”
