Why GTS Green Treated Salt Ice Melt with Magnesium Chloride?

GTS Green Treated Salt is rock salt treated with magnesium chloride and a proprietary additive, so it starts melting sooner and scatters less than untreated salt.

Where Not to Use It

  • Cracked, spalled or poorly sealed concrete

How to Use GTS Green Treated Salt Ice Melt with Magnesium Chloride

  1. Shovel or plow loose snow first so the melter can reach the ice underneath.
  2. Spread a thin, even layer by hand scoop or with a broadcast or drop spreader. More is not better; a light, uniform coat works faster and wastes less.
  3. Give it a few minutes to break the bond between the ice and the pavement, then shovel away the loosened slush.
  4. Before a storm, pre-treat walkways and steps with a light application to help keep ice from bonding.
  5. Sweep up leftover granules once surfaces are dry so they are not tracked indoors.
  6. Keep the lid tightly closed between uses. Ice melters pull moisture from the air and can clump if left open.

Questions about this product

Ask a question ›
Treated rock salt vs untreated: what is the difference?
The magnesium chloride treatment helps the salt start melting sooner and work colder, it bounces and scatters less when spread, and it is gentler on surfaces than untreated rock salt.
Can I use it on new concrete?
Do not use any deicer on concrete less than one year old, or on concrete that is cracked, spalled or poorly sealed. On sound, cured concrete, apply a thin, even coat and sweep up leftovers.
Should I put ice melt down before it snows?
Yes. A light application on walkways and steps before a storm helps keep ice from bonding to the pavement, which makes cleanup easier.
Is it safe for my pets?
It is not labeled as a pet-friendlier product. Wipe pets' paws after walks and keep them from licking treated surfaces.
How much should I use?
Follow the application rate on the package. A thin, even layer works faster and wastes less than a heavy coat.
How do I store it?
Keep it sealed in a cool, dry place. Ice melters pull moisture from the air and can clump if left open.
What sizes are available?
Size: 8 lb, 45 lb. The price shown is per 8 lb unless you pick another option.
When will it ship?
In-stock orders placed before 2:00 PM Eastern on a business day ship the same day from our Williamstown, New Jersey warehouse.

The box above the Add to cart button shows the live countdown and an arrival estimate for your ZIP.
Can I buy by the pallet?
Yes. Pallets ship by LTL freight and the rate depends on your delivery address, so we quote it rather than guess. The product price is the same price everyone pays, whether you buy one pail or a pallet; only the freight is quoted. Request a freight quote and we will come back with a delivered price.
Can I pick up at the warehouse?
Yes, by arrangement at our Williamstown, New Jersey warehouse, Monday to Friday 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM and Saturday 8:00 AM to noon, Eastern. Contact us first so the warehouse can pull your order.
