Our dedication to dry ice blasting safety procedures on every project goes above and beyond the company objective; it is a necessity.

Secure and Legal Disposal of dry ice blasting Leftovers
Dry Ice Blasting Of America makes every effort to ensure that any leftovers from the blasting process are disposed of securely, effectively, and legally. A safe workplace needs to have a strong safety culture among our employees. We mandate one-week safety training sessions for each team member twice a year. To maintain the safety procedures up to date, each semi-annual training week is evaluated and updated, and any changes are discussed during training. Our trained professionals are skilled in handling machines designed to handle dry ice pellets safely. The solid form of carbon dioxide, dry ice, is the main component we work with, and its safe handling and disposal are of utmost importance to avoid any hazards.
Our professionals have learned tips on how to store dry ice in well-insulated containers. They have been equipped with information about the risks of storing dry ice in a typical storage cooler for long periods. In addition, they get prepared on how to work in areas with a lack of proper ventilation to avoid explosion and suffocation. They are advised to monitor carbon dioxide concentrations in normal air plus survey the process well to avoid endangering human lives.
Rigorous Risk Analysis Procedure
Our approach involves a rigorous risk analysis procedure to guarantee that risks are recognized and reduced at every job site. Every employee in the firm understands the value of workplace health and safety. Each member of our staff is accountable for ensuring safe performance. We carefully handle dry ice and insulate the workspace to maintain safe conditions during blasting. Proper ventilation is also ensured to prevent suffocation risks and allow for the sublimation of dry ice transitioning from a solid to a gas. At our organization, we take safety compliance very seriously.
Regular Dry Ice Cleaning Safety Training Sessions
Very few accidents have happened throughout the years we’ve been in operation, and there haven’t been any significant ones. We have enhanced our safety training and readiness throughout history, allowing us to keep a very good safety record. We understand that dry ice is the solid form of CO2, and we educate our employees on the CO2 properties, including how it sublimates and the proper ventilation of the workspace. They also know that dry ice can break or crack solid countertops or tile floors because of its extremely cold temperature. They will also advise you to purchase dry ice shortly before using it, and it should be in a typical storage cooler.
For example, thermal expansion of one pound of dry ice produces sufficient gaseous carbon dioxide that can be released into a fresh air environment in less than 24 hours. The information helps our team understand why dry ice is stored in un tightly sealed containers. The team also learns about the importance of adhering to the readings on air monitoring devices, especially if they are working in a place that does not have proper air ventilation.
Compressed air is also used as a cleaning tool, and its safe use is taught during our training sessions. Additionally, we ensure that our blasting services are conducted in well-ventilated environments and adhere to strict safety protocols to prevent any hazards associated with poorly ventilated areas.
