Why Green Seal CMA Ice Melt Pail?
Why CMA Instead of Rock Salt
Rock salt melts by brute force, driving the freezing point down and taking the surface with it over enough seasons. CMA is an acetate rather than a chloride, and it works partly by stopping ice particles from bonding to each other and to the pavement.

Why CMA Instead of Rock Salt
Rock salt melts by brute force, driving the freezing point down and taking the surface with it over enough seasons. CMA is an acetate rather than a chloride, and it works partly by stopping ice particles from bonding to each other and to the pavement. That gentler mechanism is why it costs more per pound and why it is the product to use where damage matters.

The Rest of the Range
We carry this CMA line in three colors, each named for its own animal. Pink Penguin is the pink pail in 8, 20 and 45 lb, and Blue Arctic Fox is the blue pail in the same three sizes, rated a little colder at -25 F. All three share the same acetate chemistry, so pick on size and on which color you would rather see against the snow.
