Non-Abrasive Dry Ice Blasting From Highway Service

Highway Service use our Dry-Ice blast cleaning equipment to clean the asphalt equipment we work on. This process is secondary waste free… no dirty water run-off as with steam cleaning/jet washing. Completely removes asphalt & bitumen without any damage to the underlying surface & paintwork, it is totally non-abrasive.

This process works exceptionally well on asphalt pavers & bitumen sprayers.

Dry ice blasting is the technology in which a compressor is used to fire dry ice pellets as a form of cleaning. These dry ice pellets are actually very soft (softer than gypsum) causing no damage to the material underneath. Things that can be cleaned include:

  • Metal sufaces
  • Plastic surfaces
  • Brickwork
  • Glass
  • Cardboard
  • Cars
  • Plant Equipment

Because the dry ice sublimates at room temperature there is no residue left behind, the CO2 simply disappears into the atmosphere.

Benefits include

  • Safe
  • Fast
  • Precise
  • Powerful
  • Clean
  • Environmentally-Friendly
  • No Hazardous Chemicals
  • No Waste
  • Non-abrasive

Often when other forms of blasting are used if the material being removed is toxic then the hazardous material will dissolve into the water/sand and cause more environmental issues to be cleaned up. This is not the case with dry ice which leave no harmful residue and the remains can be brushed away.

Dry ice blasting is perfect for:

  • Tanks, Silos, Bins
  • Bitumen Cleaning
  • Food Processing Equipment
  • Turbine & Power Generation Equipment Cleaning
  • Cleaning of Ceilings and Exterior & Interior of Buildings
  • Removal of Adhesives, Rust, Grease, Paint, Tar, Soot & Oil
