Ice Melt
Gunther’s Ice Melt Products

Buy Louisiana rock salt in bulk or 50# and 25# bags, Blue Blast in 50# bags and 12# Jugs, Heat Blast in 50# and 25# bags, calcium chloride pellets in 50# bags, and magnesium chloride pellets in 50# bags.
Rock Salt: How It Works
At a microscopic level, ice has a crystal lattice structure. Salt disrupts the pattern, breaking the hydrogen bonds that keep ice in a solid state — turning it back into water. Gunther Salt products change the melting point of ice to clear roadways, sidewalks, and more. Our products are suitable for use in winter extremes from 15° above zero to 5° below zero.
Ice Control Salt
Gunther Salt’s ice control Salt is a Louisiana rock salt formulated to tackle extreme weather conditions. Our bulk ice control salt is treated with an anti-caking agent to reduce clumping and is available in 15-25 ton loads. Our bags of Ice Control Salt are in 25# and 50# bags. For delivery or pick up at our St. Louis facility.

Blue Blast ®
Blue Blast contains Louisiana rock salt and liquid magnesium chloride ice melt with corrosion inhibitor and our blue dye formula. The water-soluble blue dye allows users to see where the product has been spread, and is safe for pets.

Heat Blast®
Heat Blast Premium Ice Melter (formerly known as Heat Wave) is a unique blend of magnesium chloride, potassium chloride, and sodium chloride. Compared to calcium chloride, Heat Blast is budget-friendly, contains fertilizers and is less harmful to vegetation.

Calcium Chloride Ice Melt Pellets
Our calcium chloride ice melt product is fast-acting and effective. Calcium chloride attracts moisture from its surroundings, allowing it to melt ice at extreme temperatures (down to -30° F). As a pelletized product, it works best in a spreader and melts faster than flake products.
Sizes Available: 50# Bag
Magnesium Chloride Ice Melt Pellets
Magnesium chloride pellets are fast acting and effective at low temperatures (down to -25° F). Pellets work better in a spreader and more quickly than flake products. An ideal product of melting in extremely low temperatures. It absorbs moisture and leaves little residue behind making cleanup easy.
Sizes Available: 50# Bag
