Calcium Chloride Flakes 77%
Calcium Chloride (CaCl₂) 77% flakes are highly hygroscopic (moisture-absorbing) and used widely for de-icing roads, dust suppression on unpaved surfaces, concrete acceleration, and as a drying agent, while food-grade versions are used in brewing, cheese making, and preserving canned foods to firm them up. They also serve as a dense fluid in the oil industry, for water treatment, and in animal feed.
Common Uses
De-Icing & Snow Removal: Lowers freezing points, effective at very low temperatures.
Dust Control: Absorbs moisture to keep unpaved roads damp, binding dust.
Concrete Acceleration: Speeds up concrete setting time, especially in cold weather.
Moisture Absorption: Used as a desiccant or drying agent in various industrial processes.
Road Construction: Used in road stabilization and maintenance.
Tire Weighting: Adds weight to tractor tires for better grip.

Food & Beverage Applications (Food Grade)
Brewing: Adjusts water mineral content, improves flavor, and aids yeast.
Cheese Making: Enhances milk coagulation, improves texture, and reduces rennet.
Canning/Pickling: Firms up vegetables like cucumbers and tomatoes, extending shelf life.
Tofu & Jams: Used as a coagulant for tofu and thickener for jellies.
Other Industrial Uses
Oil & Gas: Creates high-density brine fluids for drilling.
Water Treatment: Precipitates fluorides, sulfates, and phosphates.
Animal Feed: Used as a mineral supplement.
Calcium Chloride Flakes 77%
- Calcium chloride is used in waste water treatment applications to remove undesired impurities.
- The petroleum, metal working, laundry, textile and food processing industries
- add calcium chloride to oily waste streams to cause oil droplets to float to the surface where they can be removed by skimming
Industrial Uses
- They provide more pound-for-pound performance when used for snow and ice control
- dust control
- road construction and maintenance
- concrete acceleration and tire weighting.
- It reduces dust on unpaved surfaces by absorbing moisture from its surroundings, keeping the surface damp and binding dust particles to the gravel
