What are the benefits of dry ice blast cleaning?
• Dry ice blast cleaning significantly reduces down time by eliminating the need to disassemble machinery
• Because dry ice cleaning is moistureless, there is no need for drying
• It is bacteriostatic, which means it not only provides an effective cleaning mechanism but also a sterilisation process, making it particularly attractive in food and scientific applications
• It produces no secondary contaminant to be removed, as can often be the case with water and solvent-based processes
