There are many ways people choose to keep their businesses clean, and one cleaning option at your disposal is dry ice blasting. Dry ice blasting is a strong cleaning method that’s used by many businesses. Not only is it an environmentally friendly cleaning option, but it’s also perfect for those hard-to-reach areas. Perhaps you want to know more about ice blasting before committing to using it for your own business. That’s why, today, we’ll be answering questions that people may have about dry ice blasting.
“How Does The Process Work?”
Dry ice blasting is a cleaning procedure that launches ice pellets at high speeds in order to remove dirt from varied types of surfaces. The impact of the pellets against the dirt is what causes a lot of the dirt to be removed, and the remaining dirt is removed due to the frigid temperature of the ice. When dirt and grime is at a cold enough temperature, it has a harder time adhering to objects. Once the dirt can no longer adhere, it falls off so that objects can become clean.
“Can It Cause Damage?”
Something else that’s great about dry ice blasting is that it doesn’t damage the surfaces it cleans. It’s a non-abrasive cleaning option that leaves surfaces unscratched and undamaged. You don’t even have to disassemble any machinery your business has because you don’t need to worry about damaging the different components. This means that ice blasting is also a time-saving option for businesses that use it.
“How Do I Stay Safe During Dry Ice Blasting?”
There are various safety precautions you can take during the ice blasting process. It all starts with wearing the right safety gear, such as face protection, ear guards, and gloves. You should also refrain from ever pointing your ice blasting nozzle in the direction of other people. This raises the likelihood that someone will get injured because the ice blasting pellets get launched at incredibly high speeds.
