Bacillus: The Smarter Solution for RV Sewage System Treatment

Summer is here, which means your customers might be bringing out their RVs for the first trip of the season. However, even on a carefree camping adventure, RVs need to be maintained, particularly their sewage systems. If you’re looking to add an RV tank treatment to your product line, or if you’re searching for ways to improve the RV treatment products you already offer, a Bacillus-based solution from MDG is a great place to start. With our high-quality strains and a wide variety of ingredient formats, you can formulate effective RV treatment products that address your customers’ concerns and take your business to new heights!

What makes Bacillus effective for treating RV sewage systems?

Wastewater from RV bathrooms and kitchens is stored in tanks until it is manually pumped out. While these tanks are designed to hold significant amounts of organic solids, too much buildup can decrease the effectiveness of the system. This can result in odors, backups, and other costly issues, including difficulty with routine pump-outs. While some traditional chemical products tackle odors and buildup on the surface, these treatments often don’t get to the root of the problem—the actual odor-causing compounds and organic material contributing to buildup.

Bacillus-based ingredients offer a smarter approach by directly addressing the built-up material in RV septic tanks. These powerful bacteria use organic waste and odor-causing compounds as food, breaking them down and removing them. Bacillus also boost activity levels of the native beneficial bacteria already in the tank, helping increase the efficiency of the entire system. With these capabilities, RV maintenance products formulated with Bacillus-based ingredients can be extremely effective for reducing odors and mitigating waste buildup.

Why choose Bacillus for RV treatment products?

While your customers with RVs enjoy the effects of Bacillus-based products firsthand, you can also experience a plethora of positives from adding Bacillus to your product lineup—and you can get even more benefits from choosing MDG as your microbial ingredient supplier.

Our environmentally friendlier ingredients are offered in many different forms so that you can find the perfect fit for your product:

  • SporActiv® SEPTICPAC is a ready-to-use, multi-strain Bacillus blend that comes in small water-soluble packs. These packs can be easily dropped into tanks, allowing you to offer your customers a product with a simple dosing method.
  • Application of SporActiv® TABLET is also easy, with this ready-to-use ingredient taking the form of solid bacterial tablets.
  • Not looking for a ready-to-use product? No problem! We also offer liquid and powder ingredients that can be easily blended into your formulations. All of our ingredients include scientifically selected Bacillus strains that can digest odor-causing compounds and reduce solid waste.
