NaturaLawn of America Launches an Environmentally Friendly ‘Ice Melt Product’ That’s Less Corrosive Than Tap Water
Frederick, MD (PRWEB) December 21, 2016 -- When Phil Catron launched NaturaLawn of America in 1986 (https://naturalawn.com), skeptics said it wouldn’t succeed because environmentally friendly lawn care was unproven and too expensive. Three decades of success have validated Catron’s organic approach; now he’s introducing a remarkable chloride-free “ice melt product” that’s less corrosive than tap water.
Key to Natural Alternative’s® Ice Melt’s success is the “100% CMA” rating; while other companies try to get by using as little as 10 percent or less CMA, it’s the 90 percent differential which makes the big difference.
For that reason, Natural Alternative’s chloride-free ice melt exceeds the U.S. Green Building Council LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) credit guidelines for the Building Operations and Maintenance rating system, making it the safest ice melt product for high-value structures.
“CMA (Calcium Magnesium Acetate) keeps the snow lighter and drier, thus improving traction as well as snow and ice removal,” Catron said, adding that it does not create a brine, like traditional chlorides.
Catron also pointed out that his product is made in America and represents the “safest choice for the environment—as well as high-value architectural structures and historical buildings.” In addition, it’s safe for use in common areas where children and pets have access, he said.
Here’s a list of the product’s key benefits:
Chloride-free: Eliminates chloride corrosion of metals.
Less corrosive than tap water: Easy on watersheds, lakes, rivers and streams.
No pitting or spalling: Safe to use on properly installed concrete 30 days after installation.
