Faster & More Efficient
Reduces Downtime
Environmentally Friendly
​Dry ice cleaning is a non-conductive, non-abrasive, and environmentally safe cleaning method that can be used in nearly every industry. There are countless applications for dry ice blasting and the professionals at BNC Dry Ice Blasting are committed to delivering excellence in safety, service and value.
Industrial
Commercial
Residential
Baking & Food Processing
Dry ice blasting is widely used throughout the baking and food processing industry to remove oil, grease, carbon and proteins from all types of equipment. In most cases, cleaning with dry ice is more effective, more thorough, and more efficient than traditional labor-intensive cleaning. Dry ice cleaning uses only solid COâ‚‚ so there is minimal to no delay in production since there is no water or chemicals applied to the surface of the equipment. Dry ice (solid COâ‚‚) is also an approved cleaning media by the FDA, USDA and EPA and is a standard cleaning option for compressors, slicers/dividers, bag sealers, mixers/blenders, ovens, dryers, pack off tables, pumps, extruders, fryers, waffle irons and more.
Electronic Equipment & Power Generation
Waste buildup on electric motors may cause inadequate ventilation due to blocked cooling fans resulting in high heat and greater energy use. Dry ice blasting is non-conductive, non-abrasive and leaves no residue making it a first line option for cleaning generators, turbines, stators, rotors, compressors, fin fan coolers and other equipment. BNC Dry Ice Blasting effectively, and efficiently, removes carbon buildup, oil, grease and other contaminants without compromising metal surfaces or thermal insulation coatings. Dry ice cleaning is an effective cleaning method for cable trays, motors, stators, transformers, generators, turbines, sub-stations and more.
Corrugating Equipment
Corrugated board is a vital component of everyday life...providing an effective and renewable source of packaging. Dry ice blasting is an ideal method for cleaning corrugating equipment to best ensure that the quality of the end product is uncompromised. COâ‚‚ particles reach every angle to ensure that starches, adhesives and pulp remnants are completely removed. Dry ice blasting as an effective option to clean double backers, glue stations, roll stands, single facers, splicers, labelers, flexos, slotters and more.
Plastic and Rubber Molding
Dry ice blasting removes residues from mold plates and tooling quickly without compromising the integrity of the substrates. COâ‚‚ pellets are able to reach every angle within a mold to best ensure less waste and output that consistently meets specifications. Since dry ice blasting is non-abrasive it is an ideal cleaning method for blow molds, compression molds, thermoform molds, injection molds and more. Additionally, dry ice blasting is a fast and effective method for cleaning mixers, presses, motors, ovens, dryers and other equipment.
Mining
Dry ice blasting effectively, and efficiently removes bitumen, tar, carbon and other buildup generated from mining production, resulting in safer and more efficient equipment. Dry ice blasting is also an environmentally responsible method of cleaning that leaves no secondary waste (water, sand etc.) and is ideal for cleaning vent fan motors, compressors, conveyors, pumps, rail cars, radiators, floor motors, electrical panels and more.
Foundry
Dry ice blasting removes release agents and residual materials to leave the mold surface smooth resulting in a finished product that consistently meets specifications. Dry ice blasting is an effective, and non-abrasive, method of cleaning die cast tooling, shell core molds, semi-solid castings, semi-solid forgings, poured aluminum molds, refractory coatings, core boxes, vents and much more. Dry ice cleaning is also an effective method of cleaning assets such as molding machines, grinders, vacuums, casting machines, ovens, presses, conveyors, forging rolls and more.
Printing & Paper Industry
Dry ice blasting is a fast and effective cleaning solution for keeping rollers and machine components clean in the printing and paper industry. In many cases, equipment can be cleaned in place without being disassembled. Dry ice cleaning removes grease, pulp, dust and ink without damaging equipment components and without the use of water, abrasives or chemicals. Additionally, dry ice blasting is an effective cleaning method for guards, dispersers, cylinders, motors, pumps, conveyors, control panels, bearings and many other assets and components on the floor.
Aviation
Dry ice blasting is a ideal cleaning solution for many applications in the Aviation industry. Cleaning with COâ‚‚ is faster, and more thorough, than traditional methods. Additionally, the COâ‚‚ particles used in the cleaning process are non-conductive and non-abrasive. Dry ice blasting effectively, and efficiently, cleans carbon, grease and oil that builds up on aircraft components, tools, electrical components and machines. Dry ice blasting also effectively removes foam insulation, adhesives, sealants, paint, decals and coatings as well as contaminants from landing gear systems, wheel wells, cargo bays, tugs, tow bars and more.
Restoration & Remediation
Dry ice blasting is a preferred method for removing toxic residues, soot and odors from homes and buildings affected by fire damage. Cleaning with dry ice removes smoke stains, mold, soot, and other contaminants from wood, bricks, concrete and metal without compromising or harming the substrate. Dry ice blasting is also more effective, and faster, than traditional options at reaching areas around trusses, switches, wiring, seams and plumbing.
​
Cleaning with dry ice removes mold and sanitizes any surface that may have been affected by water or flood damage. Dry ice cleaning is efficient and more thorough than traditional cleaning methods as the particles are able to access hard to reach corners and crevices.
