Cleaning a facade by dry ice projection


Since dry ice has the hardness of chalk, the treatment is non-abrasive on stone, concrete, and other treated surfaces.

Despite its extremely low temperature of -80°c, dry ice does not damage stone. However, care must be taken to perform the blasting when the surface is dry.

Dry ice blasting ideally replaces sanding or sandblasting for this type of work. Equipment used: Mach1, replaced by ATX25 Pneumatic.

Forsurface scraping (removal of a thin layer of material), we recommend using theabrasive kit as a complement to dry ice projection.

The advantages of facade cleaning by dry ice blasting

Le cleaning with dry iceis an effective method for removing dirt, grease, and stains from building facades. It is a process clean et ecological that uses Carbon dioxide ice in solid form to clean surfaces.

La dry iceis a chemical product that transitions directly from solid to gaseous state when it comes into contact with the surface to be cleaned. This process dissolves stains and dirt without damaging the surface or causing environmental harm.

Le cryogenic cleaning is particularly useful for difficult-to-clean facades, such as stone walls, brick, concrete, and steel coatings. It can also be used to remove graffiti paint from walls.

However, dry ice blasting must be performed by trained professionals to ensure the safety and effectiveness of the process. It is important to ensure that the equipment used for cleaning is of superior quality and is used safely to prevent injuries or damage to property.
