Liquid Deicing Products We Supply

We offer a comprehensive lineup of liquid deicers and additives commonly used in municipal and industrial snow programs, including:

• Calcium Chloride – strong low-temperature performance and fast ice-melting action
• Sodium Chloride (liquid brine) – a cost-effective option for anti-icing and general winter treatment
• Potassium Acetate – effective in specialized applications where performance and material considerations are important
• Organic Corrosion Inhibitors – additives designed to help reduce corrosion potential as part of a broader winter maintenance strategy

If you’re unsure which product is best for your operation, our team can help you evaluate performance goals, budget, and temperature ranges to recommend the right approach.

What is Anti-Icing?

Anti-icing is a proactive snow and ice strategy that involves applying a deicing chemical before a winter event to help prevent snow and ice from bonding to the pavement. It’s not a cure-all, and it doesn’t eliminate the need for follow-up treatments as conditions change, but it is a proven tool that can improve road conditions and operational efficiency when used appropriately.

For many years, agencies relied on rock salt pre-treatment applied ahead of a storm. Today, the most common approach is liquid anti-icing, where a liquid deicer is applied to the pavement in advance. As the carrier water evaporates, a small amount of salt or deicing residue remains on the surface and is activated when precipitation begins. Depending on traffic, temperature, and weather conditions, this residual layer may remain effective for hours to several days.

Gasaway Distributors Inc. offers multiple liquid options for anti-icing programs, and we can help you select the right product (or combination) based on temperature range, storm timing, equipment, and surface conditions.

Benefits of a Proactive Program

• Higher Level of Service: Supports immediate activation at the start of precipitation and helps prevent the formation of black ice.

• Improved Safety: Contributes to better traction earlier in the storm and reduces incident risks.

• Lower Maintenance Costs: Often reduces the total volume of salt or chemicals needed, saving on labor and repeat applications.

• Operational Efficiency: Provides crews with more response time and typically results in cleaner plowing passes.

Complete Deicer Programs and Yard Support

Beyond product supply, Gasaway Distributors Inc. can help you assemble a complete winter materials program, including:

• Salt stockpile treatment
• Yard tank setups and replenishment planning
• Liquid + dry deicer packages tailored to your equipment and application methods
• Recommendations for combining products to improve efficiency across varying winter conditions

Our goal is to help your team achieve better performance per application, improve operational consistency, and maintain safer surfaces during winter weather.
