Headwaters® HOT, by Pelican Chemicals, is a salt brine additive that combines the corrosion protection of our proprietary, clean, bio-based and biodegradable inhibitor with the melting power of highly concentrated calcium chloride to form a one of a kind ultra-efficient corrosion inhibitor/performance enhancer hybrid- a true game-changing innovation.
With a class-leading addition rate of 19%, Headwaters® HOT turns straight brine into “HOT Brine”- a high-power, clean, and environmentally friendly deicer, while maintaining the unbeatable cost-effectiveness of salt brine.
Headwaters® HOT is Clear Roads QPL Listed (Category A-3) and provides the perfect solution an any State DOT, Municipal, or Commercial Brine Deicing Operation across the US and Canada.
“We have been using Headwaters® HOT for two seasons now and have been incredibly pleased. We have tested almost every major product out there, Beet Heet®, IBG Magic®, Road Guard 8®, Heat Wave®, Beet 55®, Fusion®, APEX C®, APEX M® and AMP®- but Headwaters® HOT is our go-to solution. Unlike the Beet, Sugar and Molasses based products that can stink and track into buildings, Headwaters® HOT is colorless, odorless, and doesn’t require agitation. We also prefer the calcium chloride-based Headwaters® HOT over magnesium chloride-based AMP® because magnesium chloride is more likely to fall out of the solution when mixed with brine in cold temps as well as having a lower melting capacity than calcium chloride. Headwaters® HOT is a product that will truly thrive!”
