“Freckles Frozen Off with Dry Ice”
While a 1933 article detailed an Italian doctor using dry ice (at a frigid -109°F) to remove freckles, modern applications of dry ice blasting have evolved significantly. At Blackwell’s Inc., we leverage the power of dry ice blasting for efficient and environmentally friendly industrial cleaning.
Unlike the historical use, our focus is on cleaning machinery and equipment in place, minimizing downtime and maximizing productivity. Dry ice sublimates into CO2 gas, leaving no residue and ensuring a clean, sustainable process.

No, we don’t get rid of freckles here at Blackwell’s Inc., but we do use dry ice to blast clean machinery and equipment. Dry ice blasting allows us to clean equipment in place without removing it from production lines. That makes the cleaning faster. And because dry ice sublimates back to CO2 gas, it’s environmentally friendly.
