Origin Amenity Solutions (OAS) has expanded its winter surface management portfolio with the launch of Eco Ice Melt, a premium de-icing range designed to deliver effective, long-lasting ice control while reducing corrosion and surface damage by up to 80% compared with traditional rock salt.
Available in granular and ready-to-use liquid formulations, Eco Ice Melt combines marine-grade salt, liquid de-icer technology and corrosion inhibitors for reliable performance in demanding winter conditions. In granular form, it works in temperatures as low as -20°C and can remain active for up to three days depending on conditions. That extended activity helps reduce the need for repeat applications and, with a 15kg bag treating an area of up to 1,000m², offers more economical winter protection.
The ready-to-use liquid formulation provides a fast-acting solution for application with sprayers and liquid application systems. Available in 20L, it can be applied proactively to prevent ice forming or snow settling, as well as reactively to treat existing snow and ice.
Eco Ice Melt’s proven reduction in corrosion makes it particularly well suited to sites where protecting surrounding infrastructure, vehicles and equipment is a priority. Suitable for both commercial and public spaces, potential applications include stadiums, car parks, educational establishments, local authority sites, railway infrastructure and industrial estates.
Craig Lalley, Key Accounts Manager & Aggregates Lead at Origin, said: “Severe winter weather places additional pressure on site managers to maintain public safety and protect infrastructure, making Eco Ice Melt an important addition to Origin’s winter surfaces offering. With both granular and liquid options available, we’re confident that we can work closely with customers to find the right winter management strategy to suit available application equipment, site considerations and treatment requirements.”
Customers can get in touch with their local Origin Amenity Technical Representative for more information on Eco Ice Melt and to discuss how it can support their winter planning.
