Safeway® KF HOT
Edition Date :
August 16, 2023
Safeway® KF HOT is an advanced, formate-based runway de-icing solution. The fluid not only uses the HOT formulation, but it also contains approximately 5 % less water than standard de-icers. This optimizes runway friction, surface coverage, ease of slush/ice removal and overall de-/anti-icing performance.
Product Information
Benefits
COMMERCIAL BENEFITS
Extended endurance times, and ease of ice/slush removal optimizes time, personnel fuel and operational costs. During periods of precipitation every minute the runway surface maintains its friction performance is absolutely vital. Using the right fluid during winter operations will optimize airport traffic and minimize delays. The excellent environmental profile of Safeway KF HOT helps reducing the costs of expensive runway effluent treatment.
ENVIRONMENTAL BENEFITS
New and developing environmental legislation requires that airports manage their effluent streams and ensure minimal environmental impact. The formate formulation has considerably less COD than glycol and urea based products and about one third the COD of acetate based de-icers. This gives the airport an improved environmental impact and real cost savings in effluent treatment.
