The effective use of dry ice requires an understanding of the factors that influence its shelf life, particularly with regard to storage conditions and the quantity of material.
The shelf life of dry ice depends on various factors. First and foremost, storage plays a decisive role: dry ice should be stored in well-insulated containers that ensure that the cold is retained for as long as possible. Styrofoam boxes or special dry ice coolers are particularly suitable for this. In a well-insulated place, dry ice can be kept for several days to a week, although the exact duration depends heavily on the ambient temperature and the amount of dry ice.
Useful information about dry ice, dry ice blasting machines, dry ice blasting systems and dry ice cleaning is conveniently available in our quarterly “Dry Ice News”.

Another factor that influences the shelf life is the amount of dry ice used. The more dry ice there is, the longer it takes to fully sublimate. Smaller quantities, on the other hand, can disappear within a few hours, especially at higher temperatures.
A sound understanding of these factors enables users to make the most of the efficiency of dry ice and plan its use as required. Ultimately, the successful use of dry ice depends not only on availability, but also on correct handling and storage.
