Dry ice blasting also called dry ice cleaning, is an environmentally sustainable cleaning and surface preparation technique.
Dry ice blasting uses recycled solid carbon dioxide (CO2) pellets or MicroParticles, which are blasted at supersonic speeds and sublimate on impact, lifting dirt and contaminants off the underlying substrate.

-
Kinetic Energy
Using compressed air, dry ice in a pellet or shaved form is accelerated through a hose and nozzle at a high velocity.
01 -
Thermodynamic Shock
The cold temperature of the dry ice creates a thermal shock that helps break the bond between the substrate and the contaminant.
02 -
CO2 Explosion
When the dry ice hits the surface, it instantaneously changes from a solid to a gas, and the volume of the dry ice expands 800 times and causes micro-gas explosions that pull the contaminant off of the substrate from the inside out.
03 -
Sublimation
The outcome is a clean surface. The process effectively removes residues, contaminants, dirt, oil, paint, grime, and more without damage to the surface and without water.
