Thawrox+ is an innovative combination of rock salt and a natural agricultural by-product. It is designed with clear measurable operational and environmental benefits. Not only does it improve spreading efficiency and increase resilience, Thawrox+ also helps reduce corrosion to both vehicles and infrastructure.
What is Thawrox+?
Thawrox+ is a 6mm rock salt that has been premixed with an agricultural by-product - a derivative of sugar production called Safecote®- which has powerful anti-icing, de-icing and corrosion inhibition properties.
What makes it so effective?
Proven product for anti-icing and de-icing
Greater efficiency - greater resilience
Reduced costs and less salt metal corrosion
Easy to use
Greener solution to de-icing
Appendix H
The use of treated salt is referred to in Well-maintained Highways - Code of Practice - Appendix H, with reports of reduction in spread rates, better retention on the road surface and savings in salt usage.
Don't just take our word for it...
Local authority customers across the country are already very impressed by Thawrox+'s proven capability and have been using it for several years.
Derek Twigg, Strategy Development Manager (Highway Operations) Transport programmes and standards, Hertfordshire Highways, says,
"Treated salt has been a major factor in our ability to be confident to reduce spread rates and potential outings during this winter season. Proven in its use to deliver effective treatment at a reduced spread rate of 8g/m2 and 15g/m2; against traditional methods at 10g/m2 and 20g/m2."
"Residual salt level indications have allowed consecutive outings to be reduced and as a result we have increased likely environmental benefits of fuel reduction and reduced long term effects of traditional salt on street furniture and the surrounding environment."
Mike Bosworth, Team Manager, Dudley Borough Council, says,
"We have found Thawrox+ to be very effective with less tonnage needed - because the salt stays where it is needed. And it is more environmentally friendly, because less salt is needed to do the same job."
