Biodegradable deicing solution melts snow and ice in as little as 30 seconds

Ace Hardware recently revealed that Entry ice melt—a chloride-free, biodegradable deicing and anti-icing fluid manufactured by Branch Creek—will be available at select Ace stores throughout the 2019 winter season. Features include:

• The power to melt snow and ice in as little as 30 seconds, creating a longer-lasting and safer walking surface.
• A liquid formulation that is easy to apply quickly and evenly, thus achieving a lower application cost per 1,000 square feet than granular deicers.
• A chloride-free solution that’s safer for pets, plants, water and aquatic species, and concrete and metal fixtures.
• The elimination of tracking salt through buildings, which can permanently damage carpeting and floors.
