Red Rose USA, Inc. is a company built on quality --
quality products, services, and people! Red Rose
USA has been manufacturing
quality solutions for our customers for over 23 years.
Sub-Zero Ice Melt is unique because it is a clear,
odorless, and easy-handling solution. Our ice
melt solution includes an industrial grade
corrosion inhibitor approved by the FAA for use
on airport runways. Sub-Zero Ice Melt will not
corrode application equipment or concrete, which can save
you money and time in replacement costs.
Sub-Zero Ice Melt includes special grade
corrosion inhibitors that substantially reduce
corrosion of galvanized steel, copper, and
other metals. Please see the chart below for
corrosion comparisons of other popular ice
melt products:
Sub-Zero Ice Melt is environmentally
friendly and is non-toxic and non-hazardous
to plant and animal life. It is non-damaging
to most surfaces including concrete, metals,
wood, gutters, lawns, and vegetation.
Sub-Zero Ice Melt has a very low biological
oxygen demand (BOD) rate and contains no
phosphates or urea. The lower the BOD
rate, the quicker it decomposes into
environmentally safe components. Chloride
-based de-icers (calcium and magnesium
chloride) accumulate in the environment as
harmful salts, which can be damaging to
plant and animal life, including fish.
Sub-Zero Ice Melt is a practical solution -- it works
longer and better than magnesium chloride,
calcium chloride, and traditional rock salts.

Application Information:
Anti-Icer:
You can apply Sub-Zero Ice Melt before or
after a storm. For a pre-treatment, just 0.5
gallons of ice melt can be used to cover
1,000 square feet.
De-Icer:
When using Sub-Zero Ice Melt as a
de-icer (after a storm), use an application
rate of 1.0 gallon per 1,000 square feet for
thin ice.
When ice is more than 1 inch thick, an
application rate of 3 gallons per 1,000
square feet should be followed. However,
temperature can also affect application
rates. Please refer to the chart below
for product effectiveness:
| Product: | Temperature (°F) |
| Sub-Zero Ice Melt | -76 Below |
| Rock Salt | +20 Above |
| Calcium Chloride | -25 Below |
| Magnesium Chloride | +5 Above |
Sub-Zero Ice Melt can be easily applied with
most type of sprayer units such as
hand, garden, tractor, or truck. The corrosion
inhibitor provides easy, non-clogging
applications.
