Freeze Conditioning Agents
Keep Materials Flowing in Cold Weather
Cold weather can bring production to a halt when materials freeze together during handling and transport. EnviroTech’s Freeze Conditioning Agents are engineered to prevent freezing and sticking in coal, ore, aggregate, and other bulk materials, keeping operations running smoothly through the toughest winter conditions.
How EnviroTech Helps You Stay Productive and Compliant
Our freeze conditioning solutions address cold-weather challenges before they impact production. By preventing frozen blockages and maintaining material flow, operations can:
-
Reduce downtime and maintenance labor
-
Improve safety by preventing buildup and overflows
-
Extend the life of handling equipment
-
Maintain compliance with environmental and workplace safety standards
The Challenge of Winter Material Handling
When temperatures drop, moisture within bulk materials can freeze and cause bridging, plugging, or blockages in hoppers, chutes, railcars, and conveyors. This can lead to costly downtime, increased labor, and lost productivity. Traditional salt-based or petroleum treatments often create corrosion issues or environmental concerns. EnviroTech’s Freeze Conditioning Agents provide an effective, non-corrosive, and environmentally responsible alternative that prevents material buildup and freezing before it starts.
Engineered Products for Freeze Protection
FreezeTrol 62
A bio-polymer based body feed additive effective down to -30 °F. Applied at 1-4 pint/ton, it prevents aggregate from freezing together and causing carryback.
FreezeTrol 78-G
A blend of bio-polymer and inorganic freeze point depressants, providing reliable freeze-conditioning performance in extreme cold down to -60 °F. Designed for heavy duty applications. Applied at 2-4 pints/ton.
FreezeTrol 77-W
A chloride-free, synthetic anti-adhesive treatment that prevents material flow freezing down to -40 F. Ideal for sites needing strong freeze control. Applied at 2-8 pints/ton.
Sustainable and Non-Corrosive Performance
EnviroTech’s Freeze Conditioning Agents are designed to protect both materials and equipment. Unlike traditional solutions that rely on salt or solvents, our products are non-toxic, biodegradable, and safe for metal surfaces, rubber components, and painted finishes. They reduce corrosion-related maintenance costs and extend the life of your equipment while maintaining optimal material movement through cold conditions.
