What is "SR BLACK"?
Simple, safe and environmentally-friendly liquid snow melter.
Easy
Since it is in liquid form, our product can be easily sprayed evenly over a surface! Ordinary sprayers can be used as well. This product is optimal for huge golf courses and farmland.
Safe
No problems with root burn, or effects on the germination of lawns and crops!
Environmentally friendly
No environmental impact on soil, metal, concrete and similar materials! Carbon black (the same raw material as sumi ink) is used to absorb light and convert it to heat, melting the snow in a way that won’t hurt the environment.
(Note: Snow melting water may turn black, depending on the spraying concentration.)
Why use liquid?
Powder-based melting agents scatter into the atmosphere when sprayed. Also, the clumps produced by these agents need to be loosened, in order for the agent to be sprayed evenly. On the other hand, liquid snow melting agent can be sprayed at the concentration you desire, according to the quality and amount of snow. Further, our product can be easily and evenly sprayed, as it uses a sprayer.
