Dry Ice Blasting

Dry Ice Blasting is a great alternative to traditional sandblasting and glass bead blasting. Dry Ice Blasting is a surface cleaning system utilizing compressed air to propel dry ice pellets. C02 blasting (as Dry Ice Blasting is alternatively called) is non-toxic and non-hazardous so it’s ideal for the environment, your home and employees. There are no secondary toxicities such as solvents or solids which reduces waste. As ServiceMaster South Shore, we utilize C02 blasting primarily to remove soot from areas affected by fire damage.
