REVOLUTIONARY DRY ICE BLASTING

1) Reduced costs Dry ice cleaning reduces labor costs because it can be done quickly by one person and in significantly less time than conventional manual labor. This enables a cleaner clean, even in situations that are difficult or unpopular to clean by hand or with other conventional methods. In some instances, cleaning time will be measured in minutes instead of hours.

2) Improved productivity Dry ice blasting does not require water or create secondary waste, which allows equipment to be cleaned while hot and online. This eliminates the need to perform timely equipment disassembly and helps to reduce shut down times. By cleaning equipment in less time, facilities are able to get more production cycles from existing equipment. Preventive maintenance or spot cleaning can also be done more frequently without impacting production. This increases tool uptime, which extends production runs and reduces downtime associated with cleaning.

​

3) Prolonged equipment life Dry ice cleaning is a dry process that is non-abrasive and non-conductive; meaning it won't damage equipment and is safe for most surfaces, including electrical components. Other cleaning methods, such as manual scraping or scrubbing with chemical solvents, are abrasive and corrosive and can damage the equipment or wear it down. By extending the life of key assets, dry ice blasting can save significant amounts of money.

4) Improved worker safety Dry ice cleaning eliminates exposure to toxic cleaning materials. The process also eliminates repetitive motions of hand cleaning, scrubbing, chiseling or activities that require pounding, sanding or scraping.

5) Enhanced sustainability efforts When using solid grit media or water for cleaning hazardous materials, the cleaning media also becomes hazardous, requiring special handling, disposal and regulatory reporting. The resulting waste can also create downstream contamination that affects surrounding installations. Dry ice does not create waste stream additions.
