Dry Ice Cleaning – Modern, Efficient, and Sustainable

 

Cleaning with dry ice is a modern and economical alternative to conventional methods using water, chemicals, or abrasive techniques. It combines high cleaning performance with a gentle approach to materials and the environment: instead of leaving residues or stressing surfaces, dirt is specifically loosened and completely removed – without rework and without additional disposal. The advantage over conventional methods is especially clear wherever equipment needs to be cleaned during ongoing operation or where delicate materials are involved.

 

Your advantages at a glance: 
 

  • No residues and no additional disposal effort
  • Significantly reduced cleaning and downtime 
  • Material-friendly process for machines, surfaces, and electronics
  • Mobile application right on site
  • Versatile use in industry, restoration, and services
  • Cost-effective operation through efficient consumption

 

Applications & Industries

 

Dry ice cleaning can be used across industries – wherever surfaces need to be cleaned thoroughly yet gently, without the option of chemicals, water, or mechanical abrasion. Whether in mechanical engineering, printing, municipalities, or the automotive and pharmaceutical industries: you achieve the best possible cleaning results with minimal effort.

Vehicle Detailing 

Gently clean engine bays, interiors, and rims – residue-free, without chemicals, and without disassembly. Proven with premium manufacturers. 

Mold & Plastics Cleaning 

Clean injection and die-casting molds residue-free, directly in the hot press – without tool wear and without production downtime. 

Wood and Restoration 

Gently clean facades, roof trusses, and historic structures – without moisture, without abrasion, without damaging the grain. 

Medical & Sensitive Areas 

Residue-free, chemical-free cleaning for areas with the highest hygiene requirements – entirely without water or cleaning agent residues.

Machinery Cleaning 

Clean equipment, motors, and production lines, often during ongoing operation – without disassembly and with minimal downtime.
