Dry Ice Blasting

Abatement Technical Services offers dry ice blasting as a unique method of removal and cleaning.

Dry ice blasting is similar to sand blasting, plastic bead blasting or soda blasting.  Instead of using hard, abrasive media to grind and damage a surface, dry ice blasting uses soft dry ice, accelerated at supersonic speeds which create mini-explosions to lift the undesirable item off the underlying substrate. It is non-abrasive, nonflammable and environmentally friendly with no secondary contaminants. Dry ice blasting is fast, economical, efficient and can be used to clean many different commercial, industrial, marine and residential applications including:

• Turbines and generators used in the power generation industry
• Printing presses and other paper industry related machinery
• Fire, soot and smoke damage
• Mold, spore and mildew remediation
• Plastic and rubber molding equipment including injection and extrusion molds
• Paint preparation including paint stripping
