Removing adhesives correctly

Removing adhesives correctly can be a time-consuming and frustrating task, especially when it comes to cleaning delicate surfaces such as plastic, metal, or wood. Many traditional cleaning methods contain harsh chemicals and solvents that can be harmful to the environment and to the health of those who use them. Fortunately, there is an effective and gentle method to effortlessly dissolve adhesive residue – dry ice cleaning.


The dry ice blasting process is an innovative technology that uses dry ice pellets to quickly and thoroughly remove stubborn adhesive residue from various materials. The process is extremely gentle on the affected area as it does not use abrasive materials or chemicals, making it ideal for cleaning sensitive materials.


Another advantage of this proven technology is its gentle effect on surfaces. As dry ice pellets have a very low temperature, they cool the adhesive quickly and make it brittle without damaging the surface to be cleaned. This makes dry ice cleaning particularly suitable for sensitive materials such as paint, glass, plastic, or metal.

Clever and environmentally friendly

The adhesive is loosened by the dry ice blasting process by blasting dry ice pellets onto the affected area. The cold shock on contact with the adhesive causes it to become brittle, causing it to detach from the surface and can then be easily removed. The pellets sublimate completely on contact with the adhesive without leaving any residue.


As dry ice pellets consist of solid carbon dioxide, they leave no harmful residues or vapors. They are non-toxic, non-flammable, and non-conductive, making them a safe and sustainable option. Compared to conventional processes that use chemicals or abrasive agents, dry ice pellets do not pollute the environment and are therefore an eco-friendly alternative.


Dry ice blasting is used in various industries, from the automotive industry to companies that need to carry out cleaning work on machinery, equipment, and other surfaces. The efficient and clean operation of the process saves companies time and money when cleaning dirty surfaces.

Areas of application for adhesive removal with dry ice blasting

A major advantage of dry ice blasting is its versatility. It can be used on a variety of surfaces such as paint, glass, metal, plastic, or stone without damaging them. Dry ice is therefore suitable for many different industries, from the automotive industry to the construction industry and the electronics industry.


Automotive industries often use dry ice to remove adhesive residues used in the assembly of vehicle parts. This non-abrasive application allows adhesive residue to be removed easily and quickly from body parts, windows, or interior trim without damaging the paintwork or other surfaces.


Dry ice pellets are also used in the aviation industry to remove adhesive residues. They help to remove adhesives from aircraft parts, such as trim, interior fittings, or seals, without damaging the sensitive materials.


Furniture industries often use dry ice to remove adhesives in the production of furniture. After gluing wooden parts or upholstery, any adhesive residue can be removed with dry ice to ensure a clean surface.


In the construction industry, dry ice is used to remove adhesive from floors, walls, or windows. For example, old adhesive residue can be removed from floor coverings or tiles with dry ice to prepare for a new installation.


In the electronics industry, dry ice is used to clean sensitive electronic components. It can also be used to remove adhesives during the assembly of electronic devices without damaging the electronic components.


Dry ice blasting is an eco-friendly, gentle, and efficient solution for removing adhesives from various surfaces. With its many benefits, dry ice cleaning is an attractive option for businesses and individuals looking for a safe and effective cleaning application.
