Keeping machinery and equipment in perfect condition is key to efficient and sustainable operations. Traditional cleaning methods often involve the use of chemicals that can damage surfaces and leave behind hazardous waste. Fortunately, there is a revolutionary technology that offers an effective and environmentally friendly solution - dry ice cleaning.
And what does this mean in practice? Imagine, for example, regular maintenance of production equipment. For one of the largest producers of food products in Slovakia, we carry out dry ice cleaning during production shutdowns. This ensures that their machines are always in perfect condition and production can run without unnecessary downtime.
What is dry ice cleaning?
Dry ice cleaning uses carbon dioxide (CO2) pellets in solid form that are blasted under high pressure onto the surface to be cleaned. These pellets sublimate (change from a solid to a gas) on contact with the surface, releasing contaminants and cooling the surface at the same time. This makes it possible to remove even the most stubborn dirt without damaging the substrate.
Advantages of dry ice cleaning:
Environmentally friendly: Dry ice cleaning is completely environmentally friendly as it uses no chemicals or solvents. In addition, carbon dioxide is non-flammable and non-toxic.
Efficient and fast: this technology allows you to quickly and efficiently remove dirt from a variety of surfaces, including metals, plastics, glass and wood.
Non-abrasive: Dry ice cleaning is non-abrasive, meaning it does not damage the surface being cleaned. It is therefore ideal for cleaning sensitive equipment and surfaces.
Dry cleaning: dry ice cleaning does not produce any water or moisture, which is advantageous for cleaning electrical equipment and machinery.
Cost reduction: due to its efficiency and speed, dry ice cleaning can reduce maintenance costs and downtime.
Use of dry ice cleaning:
Dry ice cleaning is used in various industries, for example:
Automotive: cleaning engines, transmissions and other vehicle parts.
Food industry: cleaning of production lines, packaging machines and other equipment.
Pharmaceutical industry: cleaning of production areas and equipment.
Electrical industry: cleaning of electronic components and equipment.
Construction industry: cleaning of facades, interiors and monuments.
Dry ice cleaning is a revolutionary technology that offers an effective, environmentally friendly and safe solution for cleaning a variety of surfaces. If you are looking for a modern and sustainable solution for the maintenance of your machinery and equipment, dry ice cleaning is the right choice.
