Cold Blasting
Our Cold Blasting Equipment suppresses the dust plume during blasting. This works when water encapsulates both abrasives and coating being removed, which prevents them from being airborne. The droplets then fall to the ground, keeping surrounding areas clean.
Benefits
- Higher production rates. The added mass of the water in our system, combined with the fact that water does not compress like air does, gives the Cold Blasting more energy with which to remove coatings. The cooling effect water has makes coatings like powder coat, under coat and extremely thick epoxy paint come off much faster than with dry blasting, because they become brittle rather than melting and getting gooey.
- 1/3rd Lower Abrasive Consumption. Since the water adds mass and energy you’re using less abrasive to accomplish more work. This saves money on abrasive, and saves time on cleanup.
- Reduced Containment. Since most of the dust is suppressed by our system, elaborate containment is often unnecessary.
