How much dry ice do I need and how long will it last?
In a good insulated box dry ice loses about 1–2 kg per 24 hours; blocks last longer than pellets. For a wedding fog effect plan 5–10 kg per display; for a 24-hour courier shipment plan roughly 2–3 kg per box. Buy close to the time of use.
Is SICGIL dry ice food grade? Can I use it in drinks?
Yes. It is made from SICGIL's own food-grade, high-purity liquid CO2. It can be used to make drinks and desserts smoke, but never swallow or touch a piece — let it fully sublimate first, and use tongs or gloves.
Is it safe to carry dry ice in a car?
Yes, for short trips: keep it in an insulated box that is NOT airtight, keep a window open, and never store it in a sealed container or a closed small room.
Who makes dry ice in Chennai?

Safety in 4 lines
- Handle with gloves or tongs — dry ice is -78.5 °C and burns skin.
- Never seal it in an airtight container; it turns to gas and can burst.
- Use in ventilated spaces; keep away from children and pets.
- Never swallow a piece — in drinks, wait until it has fully disappeared.
