Environment
In recent years, researches have been focused on efforts to develop alternative methods of cleaning with the objective of the amelioration of the production procedure on the one hand and the reduction of dangers for the health of the employees and mostly the reduction of the environmental impact on the other hand. Dry ice blasting is such a method that keeps gaining ground at a global level during the last decade.
It is an alternative, technologically innovative cleaning method that helps the industry to assist the international effort of ecological contribution and environmental protection.
Every year, globally, hundreds of thousands of tones of polluted materials and other toxic substances contaminate the environment dramatically, originating from the industries. A big percentage is attributed to cleaning residues which can be reduced by using dry ice blasting.
Dry ice is considered as the new ecological means of surface cleaning since no chemical reaction with any surface-contaminating materials takes place (it is chemically neutral).
The method of dry ice blasting is being approved by EPA, FDA and USDA as environmentally friendly, non-dangerous, non-toxic, non-polluting and non-flammable. The carbon dioxide CO2 that we use for the production of dry ice is being channeled through dry ice blasting back into the atmosphere without an in between chemical processing, only a mechanical one. In that way it’s a totally ecological and safe cleaning process.
