Attic and roof-deck mold from condensation
Dry ice reaches the wood grain and truss crevices that sanding misses, with no moisture added to an already humid assembly and no sanding dust to clean out of insulation cavities.

Industrial Cleaning in Raleigh-Durham, NC
Presses, molds, conveyors, ovens, tooling, motors, and electrical enclosures are cleaned in place — frequently hot and without teardown — so the maintenance window shrinks instead of stretching.
Serving Wake, Durham, Orange, Johnston counties and nearby Cary, Chapel Hill, Apex along the I-40 / I-540.

Why Raleigh-Durham changes how this job is done
Pharmaceutical, biotech, and medical-device facilities requiring validated, residue-free equipment cleaning; university and hospital campuses; and clean-room adjacent utility spaces where water and grit are not acceptable.
What a Raleigh-Durham industrial scope looks like
- Step 01
Line walk and downtime plan
Assets are prioritized against the actual outage window, with test panels on representative surfaces to confirm pressure and dwell before the shutdown starts.
- Step 02
Ventilation and CO2 monitoring
CO2 is heavier than air. Monitors and forced ventilation are set for pits, tanks, and low-lying spaces, held to a 5,000 ppm TWA and 30,000 ppm STEL.
- Step 03
In-place blast cleaning
Adhesive, resin, carbon, release agent, grease, and product buildup come off without disassembly, cooldown, solvents, or grit in the machine.
- Step 04
Restart and record
No media to collect and no wastewater to capture. Equipment goes back to production immediately with a per-asset record of settings and condition.
Standard of care
Work is planned around your lockout/tagout program, confined-space permits, and NFPA 70E boundaries, with CO2 monitoring and ventilation sized to the space before the first trigger pull.
Common Raleigh-Durham calls
Validated equipment cleaning for life sciences
CO2 sublimates completely, leaving no media residue to reconcile in a cleaning validation, and the process is documented with pressure and dwell settings per asset.
Historic tobacco-warehouse masonry
Soot, whitewash, and creosote residue come off soft brick and heavy timber without the substrate loss that sand or soda blasting causes.
Industrial questions from Raleigh-Durham property owners
Can you clean electrical equipment energized?
We work de-energized under your LOTO program as the default. Where energized work is unavoidable, it happens only inside your NFPA 70E boundary rules with your electrical authority involved.
Is dry ice blasting safe around food production?
The media is food-grade CO2 that sublimates completely, leaving no rinse water and no chemical carryover. It supports HACCP sanitation programs, but it is a cleaning step, not a substitute for your validated sanitizer.
How much downtime should we plan?
Most in-place work is scheduled inside an existing outage. Because there is no disassembly, no rinse, and no dry-down, the cleaning step usually removes hours rather than adding them.
