Product Overview
Brown Rock Salt supplied in 25kg bags, consisting of naturally mined halite crystals with a coarse granular structure and characteristic brown mineral tone. Designed for fast and effective de-icing, it breaks surface ice bonds quickly and provides reliable traction underfoot and under vehicle load.
Its smaller pack format offers ease of handling and controlled application, ideal for smaller sites, individual pathways, and precise spreading operations.
The material combines the same quality and purity as bulk supply, ensuring consistent melting performance across all use scales. Naturally occurring trace minerals give the salt its brown colour and improve grip during thaw cycles.
Features & Benefits
- High purity halite composition: Delivers rapid melting performance even in sub-zero conditions.
- Coarse granular form: Ensures steady release and reduced scatter loss during spreading.
- Brown mineral tone: Enhances surface visibility during application and provides improved traction.
- Controlled coverage: Ideal for areas requiring measured salt distribution such as paths and driveways.
- Portable 25kg bag format: Easy to lift, store, and handle without mechanical assistance.
- Minimised waste: Enables accurate usage with reduced surplus material.
- Equivalent quality to bulk supply: Same de-icing efficiency and consistency as larger packs.
- 25kg bag supply: Practical for small-scale applications and space-restricted storage areas.
Applications
- Pathways and patios: Ensures precise spreading for safe pedestrian areas.
- Driveways and access routes: Provides even coverage and lasting grip in residential or small business settings.
- Small commercial premises: Suitable for car parks, forecourts, and entrance areas.
- General maintenance: Useful for on-demand winter safety in light-use environments.
Installation Guidance
- Spread evenly: Distribute salt uniformly using a shovel or handheld spreader.
- Apply pre-emptively: Use before freezing or snowfall for optimal melting performance.
- Reapply as required: Maintain coverage following heavy precipitation or freeze-thaw cycles.
- Store securely: Keep bags dry and sealed to prevent clumping and moisture ingress.
Compliance & Performance
- Material specification: Brown halite rock salt conforming to BS 3247:2011 for de-icing grade salt.
- Performance range: Effective down to approximately –10°C depending on spread rate.
- Storage stability: Long shelf life under dry, covered conditions.
- Environmental consideration: Avoid overuse near vegetation or drainage channels to limit salt run-off.
- Important note: Handle with gloves or protective clothing to prevent skin irritation.
