if youre looking for flexibility in emptying locations, you could even install a SOG kit and not bother with 'additives' and this be able to empty in any normal toilet or tanks.
we have one (built in to the van with roof venting) but are still happy with bio wash pods...

Steve, we found Aldi’s green fluid to be very good…

Lidl Formil Green Washing machine bio tabs convert here - very very happy in all temps. One tab per clean out & cleans the Cassette inside as well.
This was the leadng Toilet additive (a biopod) after much long term field testing & debate by many Caravan Talk Forum members of the many types - we agree. Aldi was a close second. Both are also very cheap plus simple to use & store.Other more expensive supermarket biotabs & additives trailed behind.
Zoflora, scent to suit, in a spray bottle to scent the bowl after clean water flush. Some do use Fabric conditioner - Aldi or Lidl.
Important. Have found with all additives that after emptying out and a clean water wash out to clean it, to then ensure water & additive is carefully swilled around all the inside walls of cassette. With biotab use ensure tab has therefore dissolved into the water prior.
In very hot temperatures we may use 2 biotabs or just empty more frequently. 2 tabs & water for journey home for a super clean out ready for next trip.
We have found with biotabs that they dissolve the solids into a liquid unless a very recent addition to cassette. Cassette very clean

Just putting to one side the environmental issues caused by Blue chemicals.
We have a campsite and have learned at great cost that under no circumstances should normal toilet fluids i.e. blue chem be put into septic tanks.
Not only do the chemicals kill the bacteria that make the septic tank work efficiently but they also destroy the metal parts inside the tank holding it all together causing them to collapse.
You may be able to get away with it at home with the small volumes involved but it will definitely cause hundreds of pounds worth of damage on a site that is being used all the time for Elsan disposal.
Nuggy The ones that do not state No Blue are probably using a Cess pit/holding tank that needs regularly emptying, not a septic tank.

I bought a couple of these along with some blue, earlier in the year and was surprised to see, that according to the label, the contents are identical?
