Eco-Gen Plus is a premium 62.5% potassium formate liquid de-icer developed for airports that demand maximum performance in challenging winter conditions.
Key Benefits
The 62.5% concentration provides greater resistance to dilution from snow, ice and precipitation, allowing Eco-Gen Plus to remain effective for longer and reducing the need for repeat applications.
Eco-Gen Plus offers one of the lowest environmental impact profiles available among liquid pavement de-icers, supporting airport sustainability objectives without compromising performance.
The enhanced concentration delivers powerful de-icing and anti-icing performance, making it ideal for prolonged snowfall, freezing rain and challenging winter weather events.
The chloride-free formulation helps protect runways, taxiways, apron surfaces, airside equipment and airport infrastructure from corrosion-related damage and maintenance costs.
Eco-Gen Plus reflects LNT Solutions’ commitment to advancing winter maintenance technology, combining a high-strength 62.5% potassium formate formulation with industry-leading environmental and operational performance to meet the evolving needs of modern airports.
With one of the lowest environmental profiles available among liquid de-icers, Eco-Gen Plus is particularly well suited to ports, harbours, docks and other marine infrastructure where protecting surrounding waterways and sensitive ecosystems is a key operational priority.
With a higher active ingredient concentration than standard potassium formate de-icers, Eco-Gen Plus delivers powerful ice control while providing enhanced resistance to dilution from snow, ice and precipitation. This allows the product to remain effective for longer on the pavement surface, extending protection and helping to reduce the need for repeat applications. Designed for use on runways, taxiways, aprons and other critical airside areas, Eco-Gen Plus combines rapid de-icing performance, low corrosion characteristics and an excellent environmental profile, helping airports maintain safe, efficient and resilient winter operations.

Eco-Gen Plus FAQs
Eco-Gen provides effective de-icing performance at temperatures down to -30°C. Performance will vary depending on factors such as pavement temperature, weather conditions, ice thickness and application rate.
Eco-Gen (50% potassium formate) provides excellent day-to-day winter performance, however Eco-Gen Plus (62.5% potassium formate) offers enhanced concentration, greater resistance to dilution and longer-lasting protection, making it the preferred choice for severe weather conditions and extended winter events.
In many applications, yes. Because the higher-strength formulation remains effective for longer and resists dilution more effectively, operators may be able to achieve their performance objectives with fewer repeat applications.
Yes. Potassium formate is recognised for its favourable environmental profile and readily biodegradable nature, making it an excellent choice for airports seeking to reduce the environmental impact of winter maintenance operations.
Its favourable environmental profile makes Eco-Gen Plus particularly well suited to ports, harbours, docks and other environmentally sensitive locations where protecting surrounding waterways is a priority due to the low Biological Oxygen Demand (BOD) and Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD).
It is chloride-free, triazole free and does not contain any PFAS ingredients.
