Type I
Type I fluids are mixtures of water and glycol with a glycol content of at least 80%, containing a package of corrosion inhibitors. These fluids have been used for many years to remove ice, snow and frost (deicing). They provide only very limited protection against further icing due to freezing precipitation.
Type I fluids can be used in "single fluid" de-icing operations, but are typically used in combination with Types II or IV as part of a two-step de-icing procedure.
Safewing® MP I 1938 ECO (80)
Safewing® MP I 1938 ECO (80) is an advanced type I anti-icing fluid based on propylene glycol. It meets and exceeds the requirements of the latest version of AMS 1424.
Safewing® MP I ECO PLUS (80)
Safewing® MP I ECO PLUS (80) is an advanced type I anti-icing fluid based on propylene glycol. It meets and exceeds the requirements of the latest version of AMS 1424.
Type II
Type II fluids contain at least 50% glycol and a package of corrosion inhibitors. In addition, they contain a pseudoplastic thickener system, which further protects the aircraft from re-freezing (anti-icing) due to its film-forming properties.
Type II fluids can be used in "single-fluid" de-icing operations or can be used in combination with a Type I fluid as part of a two-step de-icing procedure.
Specifications: AMS 1428, ISO 11078.
Safewing® MP II Flight
SSafewing® MP II FLIGHT is an advanced Type II propylene-based anti-icing fluid. It meets and exceeds all requirements of the latest version of AMS 1428.

Type IV
Type IV fluids contain at least 50% glycol and a package of corrosion inhibitors. In addition, they contain a pseudoplastic thickener system, which further protects the aircraft from re-freezing (anti-icing) due to its film-forming properties.
Type IV fluids provide longer retention than Type II fluids.
Type IV fluids can be used in "single fluid" de-icing operations or can be used in combination with a Type I fluid as part of a two-step de-icing procedure.
