COLDRY Blasting: The Smarter Way to Clean

What is COLDRY Blasting?

Dry ice blasting is fast becoming the preferred cleaning solution for a host of different industries. It uses compressed air to accelerate dry ice pellets at high speed, which sublimate on contact — lifting contaminants without leaving any residue.

• Clean In-Situ: No need to disassemble or cool down machinery. Clean while hot and assembled.
• Zero Secondary Waste: Dry ice sublimates into gas — only the contaminant remains to be swept away.
• Non-Abrasive & Non-Conductive: Safe for electrical panels, sensitive molds, and delicate surfaces.
• Dramatically Reduced Downtime: Up to 80% less downtime compared to traditional cleaning methods.

Frequently Asked Questions about COLDRY Dry Ice Blasting

What is dry ice blasting and how does COLDRY work?

COLDRY dry ice blasting uses compressed air to accelerate dry ice (solid CO₂) pellets at high speed against a contaminated surface. The pellets sublimate on impact — converting directly to gas — which lifts contaminants without leaving any residue. The process is non-abrasive, non-conductive, and chemical-free, making it safe for electrical panels, sensitive molds, and delicate surfaces.

What industries use SICGIL COLDRY dry ice blasting?

SICGIL COLDRY blasting is used across automotive (mold cleaning, weld spatter removal, paint preparation), food processing (ovens, conveyor belts, packaging equipment), printing and plating (ink and adhesive removal from rollers and plates), and general manufacturing including foundries, rubber, plastics, aerospace, and utilities.

Can dry ice blasting be done while machinery is hot or assembled?

Yes. One of the biggest advantages of dry ice blasting is in-situ cleaning — machines do not need to be disassembled or cooled down. This dramatically reduces downtime, with up to 80% less downtime compared to traditional cleaning methods like sandblasting or solvent cleaning.

How does COLDRY blasting compare to sandblasting and solvent cleaning?

Unlike sandblasting, COLDRY produces no secondary waste (the dry ice sublimates — only the contaminant remains) and causes no abrasive surface wear. Unlike solvent cleaning, it requires no chemicals and produces no chemical waste. It is safe for electronics, requires no disassembly in most cases, and reduces downtime by up to 80%.

Does SICGIL sell or rent dry ice blasting equipment?

Yes. SICGIL offers a complete range of dry ice blasting equipment for rental or purchase, including the IBLmini (low-air-flow blaster needing only 700 l/min) and the IBL3000 (compact 400mm-wide blaster for tight spaces), plus pelletisers, storage tanks, and containers. On-site demonstrations at customer factories are available.
