PELADOW® Premier Snow and Ice Melter
Product Description
PELADOW Calcium Chloride Pellets are white, free-flowing pellets that meet or exceed ASTM D98 and AASHTO M144 purity requirements for Type S, Grade 2, Class B calcium chloride.
Known as the premier snow and ice melter, it can melt ice up to 3X faster than competing materials, outperforming other products across a wide range of temperatures. Its round shape helps to penetrate ice and break the bond with pavement more quickly than flat or crystal-shaped ice melters, allowing easy removal of ice and snow.

Storage & Shelf Life
Store in a dry area, and tightly reseal after each use. To maintain product quality while in storage, solid calcium chloride must be protected from moisture. If the product is on a pallet covered by an intact plastic shroud, it can be stored outdoors on a well-drained surface. If the shroud is torn, pierced, or removed, then the palletized product should be stored indoors or under a waterproof covering.
When properly stored to protect from moisture contact, the expected shelf life for all calcium chloride packaged products is 36 months from the date of manufacture. Calcium chloride does not degrade or deteriorate; however, the shelf life is limited based on the potential for moisture intrusion into the product. Moisture will cause a decrease in overall calcium chloride assay and may cause product clumping. Solid calcium chloride absorbs moisture from the air (i.e., is hygroscopic), even to the point of converting to liquid brine (i.e., is deliquescent).
