Frequently Asked Questions

What is dry ice blasting?

Dry ice blasting is a non-abrasive, nonflammable and nonconductive cleaning method that is environmentally friendly. The process uses a variety of sizes of dry ice products, including rice sized dry ice pellets, nuggets, and shaved block ice. Unlike other types of blasting media, dry ice blasting leaves no secondary waste to be cleaned up, and does not utilize water or chemicals in the process.

How much does dry ice blasting cost?

The cost of dry ice blasting can vary depending on square footage, type of material being cleaned, the amount of dry ice needed, the complexity and location of the job, and the desired outcome. Depending on the application, dry ice blasting is often a cheaper alternative than other forms of blasting: it is fast, requires less downtime and often eliminates the need for extra steps including repainting or reconditioning surfaces. Additionally, there is no need to clean up secondary waste, since no media (e.g. sand or water) remains after the process. Learn more >
