“Application efficiencies and environmental opportunities make liquid deicing an appealing proposition for snow and ice contractors,” said Jordan Smith, of VSI. “As liquid deicing grows among contractors, the expertise and credibility of VSI will enable BOSS to meet customer demand. We believe the reputation, strong network, and resources of BOSS as a leader in the snow and ice removal market will enable continued growth in the market.”
