Garick Markets Traction Aggregate
CLEVELAND, Oct. 30 /PRNewswire/ -- Traction Aggregate is produced by fully
calcining clay at temperatures in excess of 2000 degrees. By blending Traction
Aggregate with your salt supply you can extend your salt volume.
Traction Aggregate will not melt ice but will provide great traction for
roads, parking lots, sidewalks, and driveways. It is environmentally friendly
and sustainable. It will not ruin concrete, grass, or vehicles.
Traction Aggregate is shipped via barge on the Inland River System to most
major cities on the waterways. Product is also available in semi load and rail
quantity. "We are currently in the process of setting up a distribution
network for those wanting to purchase less than full truckloads," said Heather
Conroy, Senior Manager of New Product and Market Development. Garick offers a
quick delivery time as well as competitive pricing.
Traction Aggregate will yield approximately twice the volume of salt and
sand. Traction Aggregate weighs 40 pounds per cubic foot where sand and salt
range from 80 to 100 pounds per cubic foot. Additionally it will hold up to
35% of its weight when mixed with a deicer or other liquid solution. It will
release the solution as needed.
Another benefit to using Traction Aggregate is it can be stored outdoors
and no tarps are required. There is also less chance of clumping.
