DE-ICING
& PREVENTION
Environmentally conscious practices are at the core of our services. We exclusively use eco-friendly de-icing agents and organic-based solutions. These agents prevent snow and ice bonding without harming the environment, plants, or structures. We apply them judiciously, targeting specific areas to reduce runoff and contamination risks.
Eco-Friendly Salting
Traditional rock salt, while widely used for snow and ice removal, comes with significant drawbacks, especially concerning the environment. One major concern is its high salinity, which can infiltrate soil and nearby water bodies, leading to soil degradation and contamination of aquatic ecosystems. Additionally, rock salt can harm vegetation along roadsides, affecting plant growth and overall biodiversity.
Moreover, its corrosive nature poses risks to vehicles, bridges, and other infrastructure. The runoff from melted snow mixed with rock salt can also find its way into groundwater, polluting drinking water sources. As the environmental impact becomes increasingly evident, Evergreen has turned towards eco-friendly alternatives, organic solutions, or sand, to mitigate these negative effects and create a safer, sustainable winter landscape.
​
Pre-treatment with Anti-icing Solutions
Pre-treatment with anti-icing solutions is a proactive approach to managing snow and ice on roads, sidewalks, and other surfaces before a winter storm hits. This method involves applying special liquid solutions to surfaces prior to the onset of a snow or ice event.
​
Applying anti-icing solutions before a snowstorm can prevent snow and ice from bonding to the pavement, making it easier to remove them later. These solutions can be less harmful than traditional de-icing agents,a s there are eco-friendly and organic alternatives.
​
Note: Our de-icing agent works up to -20° and is significantly less corrosive than standard rock salt.
Why Pre-treatment Works
Preventing Bonding: Anti-icing solutions create a barrier between the pavement and snow/ice, preventing them from forming a strong bond. This makes it easier to remove the snow and ice later.
​
Lowering Freezing Point: These solutions often contain ingredients which depress the freezing point of water. By doing so, they prevent the formation of solid ice, keeping the surface in a slushy state that is easier to clear.
​
Minimal Environmental Impact: Anti-icing solutions are often formulated to be less harmful to the environment compared to traditional de-icing agents like rock salt. They can be biodegradable and less corrosive to infrastructure and vehicles.
Benefits of Pre-treatment
Efficient Snow Removal: When surfaces are pre-treated, snow and ice can be easily plowed or shoveled away without much effort. Since they don’t bond strongly to the pavement, removal is quicker and requires less manpower.
​
Reduction in Material Usage: Pre-treatment reduces the amount of de-icing materials required during and after the storm. This is both cost-effective and environmentally friendly, as less material is being spread overall.
​
Safer Conditions: By preventing the formation of solid ice, anti-icing solutions contribute to safer road conditions. Slushy surfaces provide better traction for vehicles and pedestrians, reducing the risk of accidents.
​
Prevents Ice Pack Formation: Anti-icing solutions can also prevent the formation of hazardous ice packs on roads, which occur when packed snow and ice turn into a solid mass. This can be especially challenging to remove and significantly hampers traffic flow.
​
Less Environmental Impact: Traditional rock salt can harm vegetation, aquatic life, and soil quality. Anti-icing solutions, being less corrosive and often biodegradable, have a reduced negative impact on the environment.
​
Lower Cost of Maintenance: While the initial cost of anti-icing solutions might be higher, the overall cost of winter maintenance can be lower due to reduced material usage and less intensive labor requirements.
​
In summary, pre-treating surfaces with anti-icing solutions is a proactive and environmentally conscious approach to managing snow and ice. By preventing the bonding of snow and ice to the pavement, these solutions make winter maintenance more efficient, cost-effective, and environmentally friendly.
​
Traditional De-Icing with Rock Salt or Brine Solutions
Some tasks still call for good old rock salt and traditional brines. In such cases, we learn towards the use of Magnesium Chloride, as a less corrosive alternative to Calcium Chloride, but both are effective when there are less environmental requirements.
Brine solutions are a combination of salt and water that has a freezing point lower than water. We prefer to utilize a calcium chloride solution as it is 90% less corrosive than the alternative mixtures.
