How is Ice Blast different than Dry Ice (CO2)?
For one, dry ice blasting requires the purchase of a blast media i.e. CO2. This comes in either block or pellet form that requires insulated storage and handling. Also, dry ice has a relatively short shelf life; it disappears, or loses its mass, by sublimation during transportation, storage and handling at up to 10% per day. Ice Blast does not produce CO2 during operations, making it safer to use in confined areas or where adequate ventilation is an issue.
