Why Concrete Needs Protection in Winter
Get ready for winter with Safe Paw: The Pet-Friendly Ice Melter that cares – for your home, pets, and planet.
The Problem with Traditional Ice Melts
Most ice melts, including rock salt (sodium chloride), are corrosive and can damage concrete over time. Here’s why:
- Freeze-Thaw Damage: Traditional ice melts can cause water to penetrate the concrete surface. As the water refreezes, it expands, creating cracks and potholes.
- Corrosion: Salt-based ice melts corrode the metal reinforcements within concrete, weakening its structural integrity.
- Environmental Harm: Runoff from salt-based products contaminates soil and water, harming vegetation and aquatic life.
- Health Risks: Salt irritates pet paws and is toxic if ingested by children or animals.
To protect your property, you need an ice melt safe for concrete that won’t contribute to these issues.

- Low-Temperature Effectiveness: It works even in extreme cold, like Canada’s harsh winters.
