Dry-ice Blasting

Overview:

Dry-ice Blasting

The dry ice pellets are fired at the contaminated surfaces at high speed. Upon impact, they vaporise into carbon dioxide and inflate to 700 times their original volume.

 

This process shock-freezes the impurities so that they become brittle and detach from the surface.

 

Dry-ice cleaning is an innovative new technology that was developed as an environmentally friendly, safe, inexpensive and fast alternative to traditional cleaning with brushes and spatulas.

Advantages

  • Environmentally friendly
  • For applications where water or sand cannot be used (electrically controlled machines)
  • Compact and portable
  • Saves time and money (no disassembly of the cleaning equipment required)
  • Non-abrasive

This process is applied in the following applications
