Walmart and PetSmart Go Green this Winter with Safe Paw Ice Melter
from Gaia Enterprises Inc.
-- The No. 1 Environmentally Safe and Pet Friendly Safe Paw is
Salt-free; Packaged by People with Disabilities --
NEW YORK (Business Wire EON/PRWEB ) December 16, 2008 --
Leading retailers Walmart and PetSmart are going green this winter by
carrying newly formulated Safe Paw, the No. 1 selling no-salt snow and
ice melter that is safe for the environment and pet friendly. What's
more, the popular Safe Paw ice melter is packaged by adults with
developmental disabilities in York, Penn.
Children, pets, surfaces and vegetation can be adversely affected by the
use of commonly used rock salt and salt-based ice melt products.
Patented Safe Paw is the only guaranteed 100 percent salt-free ice
melter on the market. Safe Paw’s non-toxic pellets are green in a clear
plastic jug, which makes it easy for consumers to find on the shelf.
Walmart and PetSmart are carrying the innovative green product for the
first time.
Safe Paw packages don’t include warnings found on all salt-based ice
melters such as: “Danger! Keep away from pets and children. Wear rubber
gloves and goggles when using. Wash contaminated clothing and call
doctor immediately is contact with eye or ingested.”
Rock salt and other salt-based ice melters contain sodium chloride,
calcium chloride or potassium chloride which can heat up to 175 degrees
when exposed to water, ice and low temperatures. Often these salt-based
white pellets (crystals) sit on ice and snow surfaces for a long period
before penetrating into the ice. Exposure or digesting these salt
compounds can cause health problems for pets and children.
Safe Paw is the only “green” ice melt product that prevents nitrates
that are harmful to the environment by burning and killing lawns and
plants, and contaminating well and drinking water supplies.
Safe Paw was developed by a chemical engineer to eliminate the health
and environmental problems associated with melting ice and snow. Safe
Paw uses a patented dual-effect compound, made up of crystalline amide
core infused with special glycols, to melt snow and ice.
Safe Paw is available at Walmart and PetSmart, and many other grocery,
hardware, pet and mass merchandise stores nationally (cold weather
states), and can purchased online at numerous Internet retailers. Safe
Paw comes in an easy to use ergonomically designed recyclable plastic 8
lb. 3 oz. jug and is priced on average $14.95. For more information,
