Dry Ice Blasting

Dry ice blasting is an alternative to traditional cleaning methods such as sandblasting and soda blasting, pressure washing, chemicals, hand tools, and other abrasive blasting forms (glass, walnut shells, silicone).

Dry ice blasting uses dry ice pellets (carbon dioxide in its solid state of matter) with compressed air to blast particles off of surfaces to provide a clean surface without causing damage. Dry ice blasting offers numerous benefits to all of the above cleaning methods.

Benefits of dry ice blasting include:

Non-Abrasive Dry ice is a soft media that will not harm the surfaces of the equipment being cleaned
Non-Toxic Dry ice is EPA. FDA, and USDA approved. It is a food-grade material and is tasteless, odorless, and non-toxic
No Secondary Waste Dry ice blasting does not produce secondary waste because the pellets sublimate upon impact. It saves time and money by speeding up the cleaning process
Improved Part Quality and Reduced Scrap Cleaner machinery and tooling results in higher quality products
Environmentally Sustainable We use the recycled C02 that is collected from other industrial processes such as ethanol production. The dry ice does not add to emissions or produce more CO2. It also eliminates water, chemicals, and waste from single use cleaning methods
Electrically Safe Dry ice is not electrically conductive and it will not cause corrosion during or after cleaning. It allows for critical electrical components to be safely cleaned

Dry ice blasting offers a solution for every application in all industries including adhesion removal, asphalt removal, automotive restoration, coatings and corrosion removal, coffee roaster cleaning, composite tool cleaning, core box cleaning, general equipment cleaning historical restoration, mold cleaning, nonwoven dye cleaning, parts finishing, remediation, surface preparation and weld line cleaning.
