Ingredients

- Heat Locking Technology: Scotts’ Heat Lock Technology is a Scotts-branded innovation formulated to enhance the performance of the ice melter by promoting a faster and more effective melting process.
- Calcium Chloride: Calcium chloride is another essential ingredient in Scotts EZMELT Ice Melter, which acts quickly to generate heat and melt ice on contact.
