Who Needs Ice Traction?

Walk On Ice for Seniors, Homeowners, Pets & Drivers

Looking for a way to improve traction on icy slippery surfaces? Walk On Ice is a portable traction agent designed to provide instant grip on targeted winter problem areas, including sidewalks, driveways, steps, entrances, and outdoor surfaces. Unlike footwear-based options such as ice cleats, spikes, or winter shoe grips that change the person wearing them, Walk On Ice works directly on the icy surface by adding traction where it is needed.

Who Needs Ice Traction During Winter?

Winter conditions affect everyone differently. A shaded step, icy walkway, driveway, or parking area can create a slippery surface that requires additional grip. Walk On Ice helps homeowners, seniors, pet owners, caregivers, and drivers improve traction in specific areas where ice and snow make walking or vehicle movement more difficult.

Instead of applying walk on ice traction agent everywhere, homeowners can target specific icy areas that create walking challenges.

Provides portable, targeted traction exactly where additional grip is needed on slippery winter surfaces.
