STAND-UP is a liquid deicer that gives you the power to virtually eliminate the threat of dangerous and costly slip and fall accidents this winter. STAND-UP can be applied before a winter storm to prevent ice and snow from bonding to your walkways, steps, and ramps making removal a breeze. STAND-UP can also be applied after a winter storm. Simply remove the bulk of snow by shoveling, plowing or blowing, then apply STAND-UP to completely clear your walkways, ramps, and steps.
Whether you are in charge of a university or school with the responsibility of protecting the nation’s youth, a hospital with a zero tolerance snow policy or a manufacturing plant running multiple shifts, keeping people safe is your number one goal. Achieving this goal is not easy. According to the 2024 Liberty Mutual Workplace Safety Index, the cost of slips and falls in medical expenses and lost wage claims is estimated to be $12.33 billion annually! To make matters worse, many of the tools you are given to fight ice and snow don’t work correctly or just create other problems. STAND-UP solves 6 major problems for facilities:
- Salt not working at temperatures below 20 degrees. STAND-UP works in temperatures reaching well below -30ºF! That means you can completely remove dangerous ice and slippery snow pack when needed without waiting for temperatures to rise.
- Dangerous refreezing of melted ice and snow. Once temperatures drop, salt stops working and the melted ice and snow refreeze, creating an even more slippery surface. STAND-UP keeps working as temperatures drop, preventing refreezing.
- Salt damaging your expensive concrete, decorative pavers, and iron handrails. Salt creates a mini chemical reaction that causes pitting and spalling of your concrete and causes your iron handrails to rust and stain the concrete. STAND-UP is no more corrosive than tap water and will not harm your investment in concrete or metal.
- Salt tracking into your facility. Your janitorial staff battles damage to your floor wax and salt on your carpets all winter long. STAND-UP is a liquid that will not track into your facility thus eliminating the extra work that the use of salt creates for your staff.
- Salt killing your landscape trees, bushes and vegetation. Tough winters can be tough on your landscape. Salt, in heavy amounts, can kill off your trees, bushes and vegetation. STAND-UP is safe on your landscaping investment.
- Storing salt during off season. Salt is heavy, corrosive and it’s hygroscopic (attracts moisture), which turns an open or damaged bag of salt into a salt block that is useless next winter. STAND-UP is no more corrosive than tap water and has a shelf life of 7 years. You just simply close the spigot on the tote, or put the cap back on the drum or pail, and it’s ready for you to use next winter!
STAND-UP can be safely applied to virtually any surface that has ice and snow on it. Use STAND-UP on the following:
- Concrete walkways, ramps and steps
- Decorative or stamped concrete
- Brick pavers
- Metal handrails
- Metal catwalks and fire escapes
- Wood or composite decking
- Detectable warning plates
- Loading docks
- Shovels
STAND-UP is absolutely guaranteed to work! Use STAND-UP around your facility this winter and enjoy the following benefits:
- Reduces slips and falls – by giving you the power to completely clear your walkways, ramps, and steps, so your visitors, employees and staff can stay on their feet and off their backs!
- Apply proactively before a winter storm – to prevent frost, snow and black ice from bonding to your concrete, so you can easily remove it. For best results, apply STAND-UP 4 to 6 hours in advance of a storm.
- Apply after a winter storm – simply shovel, plow or blow the snow as you normally would. Then use STAND-UP to melt through the remaining ice and snow pack. It will break the bond that holds it to your walkways, ramps and steps so you can easily remove it!
- Reduced man-hours – spent clearing ice and snow from your walkways, ramps and steps!
- Works in sub-zero temperatures – revolutionary breakthrough technology keeps STAND-UP working long after ordinary pellet deicers stop!
- Great looking tile and carpet – no more salt tracking into your facility!
- Extends the life of concrete and decorative pavers – since STAND-UP will not harm your concrete. No more ugly pitting and spalling damage caused by salt!
- Iron handrails that look great – since STAND-UP will not rust your metal handrails, unlike salt that causes unsightly rust stains on your concrete!
