According to the EPA, over 20% of US homes rely on septic systems to treat their wastewater.1 When these systems are not properly maintained, multiple issues can arise, such as backups, odors, and flooding. To offer your customers reliable septic system maintenance solutions, you need a trusted partner who’s dedicated to your business growth. At MDG, we provide both high-performing Bacillus-based ingredients for your products and the education you need to succeed in the marketplace. Discover the advantages of using microbial treatments for septic systems, and learn why our Bacillus delivers superior cleaning power.
Why should I offer Bacillus-based products for septic system maintenance?
It’s crucial to keep septic systems clean and clear between routine pump-outs. Otherwise, minor issues can compound into system failures, causing a host of problems for your customers. Products formulated with SporActiv®, MDG’s line of Bacillus-based ingredients, are great choices for maintaining septic systems.
First, Bacillus bacteria thrive in environments rich in sludge, waste, and odor-causing compounds—which is just what a typical septic system looks like, making them the perfect place for growth. As these resilient bacteria digest and remove the unwanted substances in septic systems, they decrease odor production and slow the buildup of solids. This can result in a variety of benefits: fewer clogs, reduction of odor problems, and more. Plus, as living organisms in a food-rich environment like a septic system, Bacillus are able to multiply, prolonging their positive effects.
Bacillus also enhance the activity of a septic system’s native beneficial microbial community. Part of their digestion process includes producing enzymes that break down sludge and odor-causing compounds into smaller components. This makes these substances more readily available, both for Bacillus and for the members of the septic system’s existing microbial community. Bacterial activity throughout the system then increases, allowing for improved digestion of organic material and a healthier system overall.
Why should I choose SporActiv®?
A good microbial product helps fill the gaps between routine pump-outs. At MDG, we specialize in the isolation and fermentation of bacterial strains specifically chosen to mitigate the problems that arise in septic systems. The Bacillus cultures found in our SporActiv® ingredients break down solids, removing them from the system. Our ingredients also tackle buildup in pipes and plugged areas of drain fields where pumping can’t reach. All of these benefits can boost the effectiveness of your products and keep your customers returning to you for trusted septic solutions.
In addition to our high-performing strains, partnering with MDG as a microbial ingredient supplier gives you access to our expert microbiologists for formulation support. You’ll also receive in-depth guidance from our sales representatives, educating your team on how to sell your product and its value to your customers.
