The 3 Principles Of
Dry Ice Cleaning
High-Speed Dry Ice Blasting: Eco-Friendly, Efficient Cleaning
Dry ice blasting uses high-speed pellets to clean surfaces by harnessing kinetic energy, effectively removing dirt without abrasive materials or harsh chemicals. This non-toxic, eco-friendly method is safe for both delicate items and industrial surfaces, offering a sustainable alternative to traditional cleaning methods.
Eco-Friendly Benefits of Dry Ice Blasting
Favoured by environmentally conscious industries, dry ice blasting provides a residue-free clean while reducing environmental impact. It’s an ideal solution for businesses committed to sustainable, non-toxic practices.
Thermal shock cleaning uses rapid temperature changes from cold dry ice pellets contacting warmer surfaces to induce a quick shift in temperature. This causes contaminants to become brittle, making them easy to remove without the need for scraping or chemicals. This non-abrasive method preserves the integrity of delicate items while ensuring thorough decontamination.
Safe and Versatile Surface Cleaning
Ideal for a wide variety of surfaces, thermal shock cleaning is safe and effective across industrial, commercial, and delicate applications. It’s especially suited for high-value items that require careful, precise handling, offering a sustainable, non-toxic solution for businesses committed to quality and eco-friendly practices.
Dry ice sublimation cleaning uses the rapid transition from solid to gas upon impact to lift dirt and contaminants off surfaces. This instantaneous gas transformation creates a powerful cleaning effect that removes debris without leaving any residue behind, ensuring a thorough, non-abrasive clean.
Zero-Residue, Eco-Friendly Cleaning Solution
The sublimation process leaves no moisture, residue, or secondary waste, making it the ideal solution for moisture-sensitive environments. This method is especially effective in industries like electronics and food production, where residue-free cleaning is essential for maintaining operational efficiency and product integrity.
