DRY ICE BLASTING
REVOLUTIONARY TECHNOLOGY

From small residential cleanups to full commercial remediation, our experts are here to help.

Dry ice blasting is a revolutionary, environmentally safe cleaning technology for the most challenging and the most delicate. Dry Ice Blasting is effective, safe, and requires minimal cleanup. The process is not abrasive, so the underlying material is not damaged, scored, or worn away.

The equipment propels ice pellets at an extremely high rate. When the pellets make contact with a surface, the kinetic energy creates thousands of microscopic “explosions.” This action lifts mold, oil, grease, grime, and other debris away while leaving the surface itself untouched. The amount of the initial equipment cost limits the number of company’s utilizing this revolutionary technology. IAQM owns two units. They are deployed on all of our environmentally sensitive remediation projects. You can count on IAQM to continue to invest in innovative technologies such as Dry Ice Blasting.

Dry Ice Blasting Facts

  1. The EPA, FDA, and USDA have approved dry ice as an acceptable cleaning methods

  2. For food processors, dry ice blasting has been documented by the Food Standards Agency to effectively decontaminate surfaces of Salmonella, E. Coli, and Listeria

  3. Dry ice blasting does not release harmful gases into the atmosphere

  4. Dry ice blasting does not generate secondary waste

  5. Dry ice blasting is safe and non-toxic (once pellets impact the surface, they dissipate)

  6. Dry ice blasting reduces or eliminates employee exposure to (and corporate liability from) the use of dangerous chemical cleaning agents
