Not dishwasher Tabs but Lidl sell a bio washing liquid Formil.

I use this in the cassette and it works well. It is;

Readily available, Lidl stores everywhere.
It works well, all solids and materials seen to end up as fluids when I dump the cassette, but I don't look to closely!
It smell nice, in the bottle, in the cassette and when the cassette is emptied.
Bottle size and shape stores well in the van recesses.
I buy the smaller bottle, for payload and storage, it only lasts about four refills, but there is a Lidl everywhere so restocking is easy.
Cost effetiveness, against propriety toilet fluids, I have no idea?

In addition, if you are caught short of clothing, you have washing liquid to hand.

There is a thread on the subject;

Lidl Formil Bio?

New van with new toilet cassette so I wanted to try not using the usual chemical toilet fluids. I've seen on here that some folk use Lidl Formil Bio. My question is which one of the three possibilities below (bio, bio concentrated or sachets) do folk, use and how much? Also any other option Many...

Not sure that dishwasher tabs work, but many do use bio laundry sachets.

Since installing our SOG we have used very little of anything to be honest, though SWMS likes to put a bit of 'Brownhills Stuff' in every now and again.

We use the same as The Old Man but in tab/sachet form…

Well, I don't know. When you go to the loo is it more like dirty underwear or a soiled saucepan? I think mine is just bog standard, so I use Elsan.

We use Kidel tablets brought from Spain and have done for the last 6yrs they contain no bleach just chlorine and a cleaning agent. I think they cost approximately €1.99 for 40 tablets and I put 2 in at a time. They don’t mask the smell but break done No2 really well and there’s no calcium build up, after rinsing out the toilet is spotless inside

Ah that must be what I was thinking about.

You will need to read through the thread for the answer.

The trouble with Elsan and Thetford blue apart from the staining if even a drop is spilt is that they contain formaldehyde that kills any chemical treatment plants. Many CL's are not on mains drains meaning you cannot empty your cassette. That includes Jim Jasmin Camping.

Elsan green doesn't.

If you were to buy 2l of it for about £ 12, then it would refill the cassette about 16 times. So about 75p a refill.

I don't really understand why I would bother with anything else.

Agreed, but is about double the price of bio liquid and still stains.

I use dishwasher tablets for cleaning the cassette but not when it's in use. Don't add anything to ours when in use.
