Your Secret Weapon in Winter
During the winter, you don’t want your business to shut down, or your property to be too hazardous for employees to be able to come to work—or customers to be unable to walk through your parking lot! That’s why The Veron Company provides the highest standards of snow removal services.
Your Number One Salt Solution in Winter
One of the most important services we provide is the distribution of salt. This is worth more than plowing and snow blowing because it prevents snow and ice from taking hold in the first place. However, once snow and ice are already coating surfaces, salt will melt it away quickly.
One of the most powerful products we use is Advance® Ice Melter. This is a product that works faster than others, even in the coldest temperatures. It melts twice as much snow and ice as other comparable products. And it’s able to be seen, so you won’t apply it in the same place twice by accident. The salt itself is made from a formula consisting of calcium chloride, magnesium chloride and sodium chloride. It has a coating of calcium magnesium acetate.
Salt and the Environment
Did you know that salt can have a negative impact on the environment? It can raise the pH level in soil, making it less fertile. Since salt dissolves in water, it can increase the salt concentration in groundwater and rivers. It can also affect the vegetation that borders roads or any places where salt has been applied. Trees and plants can actually deteriorate if there is too much salt in the soil and water.
That’s why one of the best benefits of the salt product we use is that a little goes a long way. It takes a smaller amount of the salt to achieve maximum impact. As a result, there is less impact on the environment, including vegetation and ground soil. As a company that cares about the environment, we’re proud to use a product that causes less disruption to the natural surroundings.
What about Road Salt?
There’s no doubt that road salt is beneficial for use in winter weather. According to the American Highway Users Alliance, road salt applied to roads has reduced car accidents by up to 93 percent. In addition to preventing collisions and melting ice on dangerous roads, road salt is also easy on your budget. It costs much less to apply than other methods. So despite some of the negative environmental effects, it looks like road salt is going to be around for a while.
