ContactThree product forms — matching dilution, packaging, and cost-per-gallon to your volume
Many ICD products ship in more than one form. The choice between concentrate, ready-to-use (RTU), and super-concentrate (SC) is mostly about your volume, your willingness to dilute on site, and freight — not about which one cleans better.
This internal comparison lines up the neutral, procurement-side tradeoffs. Each product page flags its form so you can match it to how your team mixes and stores chemistry.
Diluted at the point of use; the standard form for controlling cost-per-gallon.

| Dimension | Concentrate | Ready-to-Use (RTU) | Super-Concentrate (SC) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Dilution | Diluted on site to a set ratio | None — use as supplied | Heavily diluted / blended before use |
| Mixing step required | Yes | No | Yes — blending |
| Freight efficiency | Good — ships less water than RTU | Lowest — shipping diluted product | Highest — least water shipped |
| Best fit | Most facility and shop programs | Low-volume or no-mix workflows | High-volume / distributor blending |
| Packaging ladder | Cases to drums and totes | Cases and pails | Drums and totes |
| On each product page | Concentrate badge | Ready-to-Use badge | Super-Concentrate badge |
Concentrate and super-concentrate ship less water, so per diluted gallon they are usually more freight- and cost-efficient than ready-to-use — but RTU removes the mixing step. Build a quote and our team confirms account pricing and freight for each form.
Super-concentrate (SC) ships with the least water for distributor blending, while a standard concentrate is diluted at the point of use. Each product page flags concentrate, super-concentrate, or ready-to-use.
ICD is quote-first. Add MOQ-valid quantities to a quote request and our team confirms account pricing and freight before you commit — there is no cart checkout or public retail price.
Every product links its Safety Data Sheet hosted on ICD, with ITD listed as the manufacturer. Review the SDS for handling, PPE, hazard, and dilution guidance before you request a quote.
