What is Dry Ice and Why is it Used for Cleaning?

Dry ice is non-abrasive, non-conductive and will not damage surfaces or equipment. By sublimating on impact, no secondary waste is left behind. It is also non-toxic and safer for employees than traditional cleaning methods. These attributes make dry ice cleaning an efficient, cost effective, environmentally sustainable, and occupationally safe cleaning solution.

The Most Sustainable Solution on the Market

Dry ice is based on the conversion of captured carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) into a value added, commercially useful product. It's the product of the carbon capture and utilization (CCU) process in which CO 2 is captured at industrial, biogas, or ambient air capture facilities, converted to liquid CO 2 , and transformed into dry ice - giving it a second life as a cooling and cleaning medium.

Due to the fact that dry ice is recycled CO2, it will not contribute to your greenhouse gas score. In the calculation of a carbon footprint, CO2 is accounted for at the producer level. It is not counted a second time at the point of use.
