Saves time
In dry ice blasting, equipments are cleaned on site. There is no need of transporting the equipment to some other place for cleaning.

Non Toxic

This method minimizes health risks of employees, ensures their safety and also ensures a clean and safe environment.
No Extra Waste Disposal
In sand blasting or some other methods, the cleaning agent becomes the additional contaminant along with the primary contaminant.
In contrast, in the dry ice blasting process, the pellets disappear in the end. They don’t leave any toxic substances to be disposed of. So there is no headache of extra waste disposal.
No Need for Extra Space
Dry ice blasting units are portable. They are taken to the place where the equipments are located; thereby sparing the headache of moving the equipments to some cleaning site.
Dry Cleaning Process
The process doesn’t involve the use of chemical solvents, lubricants and water. Thus, it makes for an ideal cleaning method for electrical equipments or other water sensitive applications.
Bacterial Prevention
Dry ice retards the growth of bacteria and fungus as it is -109 degrees F. This temperature is sufficient to kill the bacteria and fungi present there.

Thanks to its non hazardous, environmental-friendly, cost effective and comparatively much safer process, a growing number of industries are turning to dry ice blasting method of cleaning to rid their equipments of contaminants giving rise to a growing demand for such services
