With businesses and schools having a legal obligation to ensure that the areas around their premises are kept safe and as clear from snow and ice as possible during winter months, we want to make that as easy as possible for you. For that reason we have come up with a simple list of products which we can provide, deliver and install at your premises before winter hits .
Please reach us at info@grassrootsolutions.co.uk if you cannot find an answer to your question.
The two salt types which we sell are rock salt and white marine salt. They both achieve the same purpose of dissolving that pesky snow and ice during the winter months, but are produced in a completely different way. Rock salt is a cheaper product than the white salt and is mined in the UK.
The white salt however is produced in warmer climates around the world including countries such as Egypt and Italy.
Rock salt is the ideal product if cost is a leading factor. If the salt is going to be spread over a large area such as roads or car parks then this is the perfect product. As a result of its cost effectiveness it is often the preferred choice for organisations such as the Highway Agency.
However rock salt does leave behind a slight residue that if used in domestic areas can be brought through the house and property. This is why when individual households are purchasing salt for their own needs white salt is often the preferred choice. The residue left behind from the white salt is clear meaning that despite the higher price there is still great demand for it.
