About Optimum Dry Ice Cleaning
Optimum Dry Ice Blasting Ltd was founded in 2008 by Ian Reynolds, with a clear focus on specialist dry ice cleaning for industrial machinery and production equipment.
Today, we work with manufacturers and engineering teams across the UK, carrying out everything from individual machinery cleans to large-scale shutdown and decontamination projects.
Our experience covers a wide range of industries, including automotive manufacturing, food production, aerospace, power generation and general engineering.
We believe, as one of the oldest dry ice blasting companies in the UK, we have the experience to tackle some of the largest of projects for many of the UK’s flagship companies. We also have a scale-able approach to dealing with smaller one off blast cleans for business and private customers.
How Dry Ice Blasting Works
Dry ice blasting uses compressed air to accelerate small pellets of solid CO₂ onto a contaminated surface.
The combination of impact and extreme cold weakens the bond between the contamination and the underlying surface, allowing deposits to break away without the aggressive abrasion associated with many conventional blasting methods.
It is better seen in the myriad of videos we have posted on YouTube, which you can see by clicking here.
