Default Best type of Antifreeze for Vovlo 240?

Hey Guys,

This is my first post on this forum, so please be kind!

I have a fleet of three Volvo 240GL's and one Volvo 244.

I live in a humid country with temperature running from 30 to 40 degrees c.
It has just reached the peak of the hot season now, and the volvo's are getting hotter then preferable. Slightly below the half mark on the temperature gauge. (Usually it goes up to a little over quarter at max)

I usually just use plain water for filling up the radiator's but i guess this wheather calls for something more now.

My question is what type of antifreeze would fit best for the volvo 240/244 radiator? And what ratio to mix with water?
