Dry Ice Blasting

Industrial Cleaning Excellence

Radian HA Limited

Advanced, Non-Abrasive Industrial Cleaning

A powerful, eco-friendly cleaning solution for sensitive and heavy-duty industrial environments.

Dry ice blasting is a revolutionary cleaning method that uses solid CO₂ pellets accelerated by compressed air to clean surfaces without causing damage. Unlike traditional cleaning methods, it's non-abrasive, non-conductive, and leaves absolutely no residue behind – making it the ideal choice for industries that demand precision, safety, and environmental responsibility.

What Is Dry Ice Blasting?

Dry ice blasting is an innovative cleaning process that uses recycled CO₂ in its solid form (dry ice pellets) to remove contaminants from surfaces. The pellets are accelerated through compressed air and impact the surface at high velocity.

How It Works

  • Impact: Dry ice pellets hit the contaminated surface at high speed
  • Thermal Shock: The extreme cold (-78.5°C / -109.3°F) causes contaminants to become brittle and crack
  • Sublimation: The pellets instantly convert from solid to gas, expanding and lifting away contaminants
  • Zero Residue: The CO₂ dissipates into the atmosphere, leaving only the removed contaminant to clean up

Unlike sandblasting, pressure washing, or chemical cleaning, dry ice blasting is completely non-abrasive and leaves no secondary waste. This means no water damage, no chemical residue, and no expensive cleanup – just pristine, cleaned surfaces ready for immediate use.

Key Benefits of Dry Ice Blasting

🎯

Non-Abrasive

Safe for delicate machinery, electrical wiring, and protective coatings. Won't damage substrate surfaces.

♻️

No Secondary Waste

Only the removed contaminant needs disposal. Dry ice sublimates completely, leaving zero cleaning residue.

⚡

Non-Conductive

Completely safe for use around electrical equipment, control panels, and sensitive electronics.

🌱

Environmentally Friendly

No harmful chemicals, no water consumption, and uses recycled CO₂ from industrial processes.

⏱️

Reduced Downtime

Often cleans equipment in place without disassembly, significantly reducing operational downtime.

🔍

Enhanced Safety & Inspection

Improves workplace safety and allows for more accurate equipment inspections and maintenance.
