SAFE ON ANY SURFACE

Cleaning with dry ice is simply the safest method for cleaning or preparing a surface for recoating. First, ice blasting is completely non-abrasive. This characteristic allows materials such as steel, concrete, plastic, glass, or rubber to be cleaned without causing any damage to the surface. Also, by simply adjusting the air pressure, CO2 cleaning allows the option of either cleaning a painted surface or stripping the paint completely off of the surface. Secondly, ice blasting is a dry process. Therefore, ice blasting can be used to clean electrical components and it is completely safe around bearings. Furthermore, CO2 blasting is FDA Food Grade Certified and upon contact will kill bacteria, mold, mildew, fungus, etc. Cleaning with CO2 also contributes to moisture reduction which aids in inhibiting the growth of bacteria. Ice blasting meets EPA, FDA, and USDA guidelines. Because our media is simply carbon dioxide (what we breathe out), we can blast near products and work while facilities are in operation without worrying about causing contamination.

ENVIRONMENTALLY SAFE

CO2 blasting is the most environmentally safe method for cleaning or preparing a surface for recoating. Once the dry ice hits a surface, it vaporizes, turns into a gas, and returns back to its natural state in the atmosphere. Therefore, there is no waste to clean up other than whatever material is blasted off. This is very environmentally significant because ice blasting eliminates harmful chemicals, truckloads of hazardous materials, and enormous amounts of media to dispose of. The savings in disposal costs can then be very significant.
