DRAGLAM SALT GIVES TIPS TO BULK SALT CUSTOMERS

DRAGLAM SALT GIVES TIPS TO BULK SALT CUSTOMERS
Last week marked the start of fall. While most of us are still hanging on to the not-so-distant summer heat, the Ontario bulk salt supply industry is already thinking of winter. At Draglam Salt, we know that our clients depend on us for their snow management and de-icing needs. While we’re working hard to plan ahead, who says you can’t reminisce about the dog days of…winter?!


December 2013 Ice Storm

Who could forget the ice storm that took everyone by surprise? While it turned some streets into fairytale scenery, others were left damaged and dilapidated. Safety soon became the ultimate priority, and we dug deep into our supplier network to secure the road salt needed to combat this phenomenon.

More recently, Southern Ontario marked another weather milestone with February 2015 being the coldest month on record. February brought with it heaps of snow and kept our customers – and us – working through the nights.
