Company Overview

Three decades ago, in 1978, Arctic Snow and Ice Control Founder Randy Strait began plowing professionally with a Western snowplow fitted onto a 1977 Chevy Blazer. One year later, during a record breaking snow season in Chicagoland, Strait would establish himself as a dependable snow removal service, and set him on the path to creating Arctic Snow and Ice Control.

Thirty years later, Arctic is a multi-million dollar company with over 300 team members dedicated to the business of snow and ice control. The company handles clients in the retail and commercial industries and provides each one with the same dedication Randy Strait demonstrated thirty years ago. Each operator at the company follows a strict guideline to ensure every customer receives professional and efficient plowing. Taking the time to do the job the right way is one of the company's fundamental philosophies. At Arctic Snow and Ice Control, snow is not an afterthought, it is our only thought.

The Sectional Sno-Pusher is compatible with several types of equipment including wheel loaders backhoes, skid steers, compact loaders and tractors. The Sectional is ideal for construction and landscape contractors looking for a productive solution for inactive equipment during the winter months, as well as established snow and ice control professionals.

The Arctic Sectional is simply the most efficient, effective all encompassing pusher on the market today. From sidewalks to parking lots. If you want to take your snow contracting business to a level the competition can't match.

Sectional Sno-Pusher, a division of Arctic Snow and Ice Products Bradley IL, offers three lines of unique snow pushers, the HD, LD and CD models. They are compatible with wheel loaders, back-hoes, skid steers, compact loaders, and tractors.

Incorporating several unique features, the Sectional pushers increase snow removal efficiency and reduce fuel costs. The patented steel moldboard design is made of 32, 30 and 24-inch-wide individual sections depending on the model, each featuring spring-loaded trip edges. The exclusive moldboard design combines the precision of a small plow with the capacity of a large pusher.

The separate sections move independently of one another, allowing the unit to contour to the surface and scrape snow and ice out of dips and recessions, all while moving over raised objects. This enhances plowing efficiency and protects operators from impact injuries and minimizes property damage.

Each moldboard section features an AR-400 hardened-steel trip cutting edge, designed to scrape snow and ice down to the pavement. In addition to removing compacted ice and snow, the cutting edge's sectional design is also more economical. On a typical one-piece moldboard plow or pusher, the entire cutting edge must be replaced when damaged. In the event that a Sectional Sno-Pusher's cutting edge is damaged, only the individual section needs to be replaced.

The pusher operates independently of the machine and automatically adjusts to the pavement grade, resulting in fewer missed areas and less follow-up plowing. Additionally, the patented Slip Hitch ensures all four tires remain on the pavement at all times. As a result, the machine is able to achieve full traction, and eliminate drag and loss of horsepower.

Our customers have reported salt savings as high as 50% and fuel savings exceeding 30% easily out performing any other pusher on the market today and designed for equipment weighing 5,000 to 60,000 the Sectional pushers are available to accommodate all your snow removal needs.
