Product Description and Applications

TCEG-1000 is a ready-to-use, all-season product for filling compartmentalized toilet systems, including most chemical toilets whether portable land-based toilets or toilets on trains, aircraft, and boats. It is based on ethylene glycol and contains a dye and ingredients for odor control, bacterial control, and corrosion inhibition. Since no mixing is required, TCEG-1000 provides consistently effective performance without the risk of errors arising from a dilution or mixing process.
