It has been specially formulated to be truly universal in its application. This product provides a high degree of corrosion protection for all engine cooling systems whether they are predominantly of aluminium or ferrous construction.

The Classic antifreeze employs established inhibitor technology and is nitrite, amine and phosphate (NAP) free and includes borate and silicate.  Classic Antifreeze contains a bittering agent to prevent accidental consumption and is suitable for all year round usage in automotive and commercial petrol and diesel engines and certain industrial applications.

More info:

Inorganic acid technology (IAT) antifreeze, also known as fully formulated coolant, is a traditional type of coolant that contains ethylene glycol, phosphates, and silicates. It’s usually green or blue in colour and is often used in older vehicles, particularly those manufactured before the late 1990s. This antifreeze is designed to protect cast iron, brass, copper, and aluminium parts in older vehicles, and it also contains supplemental coolant additives (SCA) to prevent engine lining corrosion.

IAT antifreeze can last for up to 200,000–250,000 miles or two to three years, but the SCA additives are the first to wear out. Because of this, older vehicles that use IAT antifreeze should be flushed and refilled every two years or up to 72,000 km. IAT antifreeze is not as efficient as some newer coolant solutions and should not be used in modern vehicles
