ICE CONTROL STRATEGIES

highway ice control

Choosing the right ice melting strategy is an important factor in keeping roads open and safe for vehicle traffic. While rock salt and abrasives are mainstays for most highway winter maintenance programs, prewetting, anti-icing, and other strategies help road authorities improve safety while reducing the impact and expense of snow and ice removal operations. Calcium chloride products from OxyChem are widely used to increase the effectiveness and improve the efficiency of rock salt and abrasive applications.
