Dry Ice Blasting

Dry ice blasting is an innovative cleaning technique that uses solid carbon dioxide (CO2) pellets, known as dry ice, as the cleaning medium. The process involves propelling these dry ice pellets at high speeds onto a surface using compressed air. Upon impact, the dry ice sublimates (turns directly from a solid to a gas), lifting contaminants like paint, rust, grease, grime, smoke, and soot from the surface without leaving any residue. This method is non-abrasive, more sustainable, and highly effective for a wide range of industrial and restoration applications.

• Non-Abrasive Cleaning: Dry ice blasting is gentle on surfaces, making it an ideal solution for cleaning sensitive equipment and materials without causing damage. It effectively removes contaminants without scratching, etching, or eroding the underlying material.

• No Secondary Waste: Unlike other cleaning methods that use water, chemicals, or sand, dry ice blasting leaves no secondary waste. The dry ice pellets sublimate upon contact, leaving only the removed contaminants to be disposed of. This makes the cleanup process faster and more efficient.

• More sustainable: Dry ice blasting uses recycled CO2 and does not produce any hazardous waste, reducing environmental impact and making it safe for both operators and the environment.

• Safe and Non-Toxic: Dry ice blasting is a non-toxic process that doesn't require the use of harmful chemicals or solvents. It’s safe for use in food processing environments and other sensitive areas where chemical residues are a concern.

• Effective on Tough Contaminants: Dry ice blasting is highly effective at removing stubborn contaminants such as grease, oil, tar, rust, and soot. Its ability to clean even the most challenging residues makes it a preferred choice in many industries.

• Reduced Downtime: The speed and efficiency of dry ice blasting can significantly reduce downtime for industrial equipment and machinery. Because it’s a dry process, it eliminates the need for drying time, allowing equipment to be returned to service more quickly.

Dry ice blasting is versatile and can be used in a variety of settings, including:

• Industrial Equipment Maintenance: Ideal for cleaning machinery, motors, turbines, and other industrial equipment without disassembly, ensuring minimal downtime and extending the life of the equipment.

• Fire and Smoke Damage Restoration: Perfect for removing smoke stains, soot, and char from walls, ceilings, and structural components without causing additional damage to the affected areas.

• Mould Remediation: Dry ice blasting effectively removes mould from wood, brick, and other surfaces without spreading spores, making it a preferred method for mould remediation.

• Food Processing Equipment Cleaning: Safe for use in food processing environments, dry ice blasting can clean equipment without leaving behind harmful chemical residues, ensuring compliance with health and safety standards.

• Automotive and Aerospace Industries: Used to clean engines, components, and manufacturing equipment, dry ice blasting effectively removes contaminants while preserving the precision and integrity of parts.

• Graffiti Removal: Efficient at removing graffiti from a variety of surfaces, including brick, stone, and metal, without damaging the underlying material.
