ecoTraction is a safety product used as an environmentally responsible alternative to salt and ice melters by providing instant traction on slippery winter surfaces.
It is made of a naturally occurring volcanic mineral that is a porous, relatively soft honeycomb-structured stone. This cage-like structure acts as a ‘sponge’ and makes it useful in all sorts of ways. For decades, this mineral has been used as a soil amendment product, an odor control product, an animal feed additive, a water purification solution, a toxic material containment and environmental remediation product, and many other applications.
Thanks to its spiny sharp edges and honeycomb-like structure, these unique granules provide instant traction on ice and snow.
Each granule has microscopic channels that absorb the thin slippery layer of water found on ice, helping it to grip on ice & snow faster and better than any other products of its category. Its sharp micro edges, large surface area, multiple contact points and rigid structure, make ecoTraction the ultimate traction agent for slippery winter conditions.
ecoTraction doesn’t melt away like salt does by leaching into the ground, contaminating the soil and ground water. Instead, ecoTraction keeps its spiny structure on ice and snow, lasting much longer than any ice melter to help prevent slip & falls. Over time, it crushes underfoot on hard surfaces, breaks down and in the spring it can be safely swept away onto lawns and gardens.
