XtragripTM is a frost-resistant liquid de-icing agent composed of liquid calcium chloride (30% concentration). Mixed with stock piles of abrasives (sand and stone), XtragripTM keeps piles malleable in the winter season, down to -50 °C. Abrasives treated with XtragripTM cling to frozen surfaces, thus preventing their dispersal toward the ditch (20% less losses).
