Environmentally Friendly Ice Melt

All salts are harmful to the environment, infrastructure, and freshwater resources. Excess salt use will have an evident impact on grass, shrubs, and other landscape foliage. Salt runoff from roads and sidewalks finds its way into the natural environment in a variety of ways. So, what should we do to remove snow and ice? Fortunately, we have safe paws ice melter, an environmentally friendly ice melt to keep our families and pets safe.

How Harmful Are Toxins Present In Ice Melt?

Salt, particularly rock salt, causes dehydration causing plant damage. Salt also causes injury to new seed germination, stems, leaves, and flowers by inhibiting root growth, disrupting nutrient uptake, and causing damage to seed germination, stems, leaves, and flowers.

Damage to infrastructures, such as roads, bridges, parking decks, walkways, doors, and even flooring, is the second most obvious environmental impact of excessive salt usage after the landscape. All salts can erode concrete and cause corrosion and damage to rods and structural steel, causing structural integrity to deteriorate.

The most significant environmental impact of salt is its influence on freshwater resources. It has a deteriorating effect on aquatic life and drinking water. Fish, macroinvertebrates, insects, and amphibians are affected by chloride in surface waters. 

Contaminants from ice and snow melting salt infiltrate groundwater, discharge into surface water and storm drains, contaminating freshwater resources. The chlorides from salt discharged into these water systems remain in solution, with no natural means of removal; the only dilution with more freshwater can lower their concentrations.

Environmentally Friendly Ice Melt

Safe Paw, an environmentally friendly product that does not include salt, is used to replace all of the toxin-based ice melts. The environment will not be harmed by a product that does not contain salt.

It produces an invisible layer of protection that helps prevent snow from clinging to the surface for up to three days.
