What We Do
Dry ice blasting, also called dry ice cleaning, is a 100% green cleaning and surface preparation technique. Approved by the FDA, USDA and EPA, dry ice blasting can remove contaminates from any surface, including rust, mold, paint, fire damage, chemical buildup, and graffiti.
Dry ice blasting utilizes a compressed air stream of grain-size pellets (CO2) fired from a spray nozzle. When the dry ice hits the object, the freezing temperature causes the surface material to shrink and lose its grip on the original sub surface. The dry ice quickly penetrates the unwanted material and makes contact with the underlying surface; warming the dry ice and converting it back into carbon dioxide gas without becoming a liquid, a process known as “sublimation.”
The gas expands underneath the unwanted material hastening its removal, and only the loose contaminants must be disposed of as the dry ice sublimates back into the atmosphere.
