Dry Ice Blasting for Environmental Remediation: Clean Without Compromise

November 13, 2025

At MP Environmental, we rely on innovative methods to deliver safe, effective remediation. One of the most powerful is dry ice blasting—an eco-friendly cleaning technology ideal for paint, residue, and contaminant removal, especially in delicate or historic structures.

What Is Dry Ice Blasting?

Dry ice blasting uses recycled CO₂ pellets accelerated by compressed air. When they strike a surface, the pellets sublimate (turn instantly from solid to gas), lifting away contaminants without leaving behind waste or damaging the substrate.


Why It’s Better

Compared to sandblasting or chemical cleaning, dry ice blasting is:

  • Non-abrasive – preserves wood, brick, and metal.
  • Chemical-free & water-free – safer for crews and ecosystems.
  • Waste-free – only the contaminant is removed.
  • Efficient – less downtime since surfaces can be cleaned in place.


Where We Use It

We apply dry ice blasting for:

  • Lead paint and residue removal
  • Mold and soot remediation
  • Historic preservation projects
  • Surface prep for encapsulation or re-coating
