Ice is the enemy!

 ฀ Slips, trips and falls are the leading cause of OSHA- recordable injuries.  ฀ 20% of all job-related injuries.  Account for over 152,000 lost work days every year.  ฀ The average cost of a single slip, trip and fall injury is more than $20,000.  ฀ account for 15 to 20% of all workers’ compensation expenses. Bureau of Labor Statistics

 Winter can be brutal!  Dangerous slip & fall accidents can cause personal injury  Increased liability costs for business and property owners.  There is a need for a safe, effective traction product that also melts ice and improves walking and driving conditions. Solution: Provide instant traction and prevent refreeze!

 Created by Oil-Dri national brand  All Natural Formula  Provides Instant Traction well below 0˚F  Melt Ice to 0˚  Prevents re-freeze  Available in 50 lb. bags, 25 lb. bags and 10 lb. jugs. Don’t Get Stuck Without It.

 Patented formula combines a uniform size of sodium chloride crystals and highly absorbent ceramic granules. A Better Mousetrap!

 Natural salt begins to melt the ice  Salt mixes with water to create brine  Ceramic granules absorb brine  Acquire ice melting properties  Removes water to prevent secondary icing  Clay granules embed into the ice to create a non-slip surface. Genius!

 Snow & Go vs. 100% Rock Salt Snow & Go Road Salt Snow & Go Traction ✔ Coverage ✔ Melting ✔ ✔ Refreeze ✔ Snow & Go Wins! Road Salt

 Absorbent Ceramic Granules  Granules embed into ice and for instant long lasting traction  Better traction than cat litter and sand  Do not turn to mud  ** Absorb their weight in water to prevent re-freeze  Keeps working  Helps prevent slip & fall accidents Satis-traction!

 Contains Only 30% salt by volume  Reduce negative impact of salt on lawn and plants  Reduce salt in water table  Less salt residue stains  Less harmful to concrete  No oily residue Low Sodium is Good!

 All Natural and User friendly formula  Contains no added chemicals or dyes  Clay granules will not harm lawn & plants/natural soil amendment  Darkens for easy visibility on ice and controlled application  Less indoor tracking due to embedding in ice  Safer for pets  No clumping  No need for disposal Traction in action!

 Sidewalks  Driveways  Roads  Schools  Facilities  Store Fronts  Garages  Shops  Gas Stations  Parking Lots  Stairs  Entry ways  Public areas  Bridges Anywhere traction is needed on ice.

 Melts ice to 0˚F  No working limitations on traction  Recommended Coverage: 1.5 lb per sq. yd.  Granules heat treated to 0% moisture  Granules absorb their own weight in brine and hold sodium  Uniform grind size Science… but not rocket science!
