BlueJuice® LavFluid
Fully Formulated Aircraft Lavatory Fluid
NO MORE MIXING!
DESCRIPTION
BlueJuice LavFluid (LF) is a patented, complete, ready-to-use winterized lavatory flushing fluid. BlueJuice LF represents a new class of fully formulated environmentally friendly lavatory fluids which consists of an aqueous solution of an aircraft toilet deodorant certified to SAE AMS 1476 and a biobased, non-glycol freeze point depressant.
Per the USAF Air mobility Command Instruction, Blue Juice LavFluid is the ONLY fully formulated toilet fluid available. It is available in a traditional WINTER BLEND (-22F) for months October-April and SUMMER BLEND (0F) for months May-September. Both blends available year 'round. No mixing required!

APPLICATIONS
BlueJuice LF was designed for aircraft use but is suitable for many market applications including:
- Aircraft
- Rail
- Mass transit
- Marine
- Recreational vehicle
- Portable toilet applications
The unique features and benefits of Blue Juice LF make it an ideal alternative to traditional glycol based winterized lavatory fluids, especially for environmentally sensitive applications.
ENVIRONMENT
LavFluid is a 100% certified USDA Biobased Product as tested by ASTM D6866 through the USDA BioPreferred® Program. Blue Juice LF is composed of natural ingredients based on abundant and renewable agricultural feedstock materials that are cost effective and readily available.
- No Known Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC's)
- No Hazardous Air Pollutants (HAP's)
- No SARA Title III reportable materials
- No glycols or alkyphenol ethoxylates
- Biobased (100% per ASTM D 6866)
- Readily biodegradable (OECD Method 310)
- Lower BOD
Blue Juice LF has been tested to OECD 310 with results showing it is "readily biodegradable" meaning that there is unequivocal evidence that Blue Juice LF is rapidly mineralized to inorganic components and biomass. Blue Juice LF also meets the definitions of "inherently biodegradable" and "ultimately biodegradable" meaning that there is a reasonable expectation that they will eventually be completely mineralized in aerobic environments.
Blue Juice does not contain corrosive salts and, unlike ethylene glycol-based fluids, Blue Juice LF is nontoxic and non-hazardous to plant and animal life. Compared to propylene glycol, Blue Juice LF has a lower Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) and biodegrades at a rate that is more environmentally friendly and less taxing on waste water treatment systems.
