Marine & Aerospace
Precision cleaning for marine vessels and aerospace components. Remove corrosion, fouling, and contamination while meeting strict industry standards.
What is Marine & Aerospace?
Marine and aerospace applications demand precision cleaning that meets strict industry standards while being gentle enough for expensive, sensitive components. Dry ice blasting delivers on both requirements, which is why it's used by leading shipyards, aviation maintenance facilities, and aerospace manufacturers worldwide.
For marine applications, dry ice blasting removes hull fouling, corrosion, and marine growth without the environmental concerns of traditional methods. No water is added to the equation, and no abrasive media enters the marine environment. The process is effective on hulls, decks, engine rooms, and all vessel components.
In aerospace, dry ice blasting cleans aircraft components, engines, and structures without causing the surface damage that can lead to stress concentration and fatigue failures. The process is approved by major aircraft manufacturers and meets FAA requirements for aviation maintenance.
