Pre-mixed Salt Brine

Pre-mixed salt brine is a ready-to-use de-icing fluid. Simply load the fluid into your sprayer and apply as needed. This product is designed to lower the barriers to implementation of a liquids program. Liquid de-icing is a sustainable replacement for traditional dry salt and sand application. In order to foster a movement away from the harmful overuse of rock salt, our premix brines provide a simpler first step in the process of modernizing ice management. Liquids de-icing can seem daunting to implement at first. Removing the production and blending requirements of the liquids can make for a smoother transition to a sustainable method of winter operations. This product provides an opportunity for winter maintenance contractors to focus on the application process, parameters and logistics, while being assured that the products are of top quality and readily available.

BENEFITS OF PRE-MIXED SALT BRINE:

  • Ready to use

  • Lower the barriers to implementing liquids

  • Simplify and modernize ice management

  • Eliminate the guesswork of production and blending requirements

  • Ensure quality and availability of product

  • Consistent results

  • Cost effective

  • Maximize efficiency

  • Reduce calculation errors

The 23.3% salt brine has been preblended with our additive X1 (CaCl and corrosion inhibitors) or X2 (MgCl and corrosion inhibitors) at varying percentages to ensure even and consistent solution for maximum efficiency in a liquids program. The de-icing fluid has been filtered to ensure a clean liquid that is ready for application equipment. This product is designed for an operator who does not have brine making facilities. Liquids infrastructure takes time, money and experience to create. This product will provide opportunities to enter the liquids revolution at substantially reduced logistics and infrastructure costs. No time or product is wasted on the part of the applicator in calculating the ratio of salt brine to additive that is needed in each batch. This product is designed to maximize liquid operation efficiency by reducing the need of extra tanks and flow meters to measure additive inputs into each tank. It reduces opportunity for mathematical errors in tank blending.

Liquids Revolution Pre-Mixed Brine comes in varying blends depending on your requirements. The blends are shown as to how much additive is present in the salt brine. X1 and X2 are mixed using different percentages to achieve the same operational result.

 

Utility Blend

Used in over 80% of application events, fast acting with strong residual. Can handle moderate to high moisture events with application rate variance. Temperature ranges between 0 and -9. It can be used as a pre-treatment (anti-icing) or direct liquid application (post-plow de-icing)

Percentage to add to brine:   X1 @ 5%

X2 @ 7.5%

 

Cold Weather Blend

When the temperature drops to -10 through -20, a bit more additive makes all the difference in maintaining the application volumes. To limit the amount of liquid that needs to be applied at colder temperatures increase in additive to the salt brine is required.

Percentage to add to brine:   X1 @ 15%

X2 @ 20%

 

Sidewalk Blend

Specifically designed to enhance the clear surface condition of concrete and interlocking sidewalks, fast acting with strong residual. Can handle moderate to high moisture events with application rate variance. Temperature ranges between 0 and -9. It can be used as a pre-treatment (anti-icing) or direct liquid application (post-plow de-icing).

Percentage to add to brine:   X1 @ 20%

X2 @ 30%
