Plastic Injection

Dry Ice Blasting for Plastic Injection Moulding

Dry ice blasting is the fastest and most effective way to clean plastic injection moulds, removing tarnished release agents, hardened plastic, overspray, and build-up from mixed materials. It reaches even the most challenging valleys, vents, and crevices—areas that traditional cleaning methods struggle to access.

What Can Be Cleaned?

• Release agents and overspray
• Hardened or stuck plastic
• Residue from mixed materials
• Moulds, screws, mixers, and other injection equipment

Benefits of Dry Ice Blasting in Plastics Manufacturing:

• No mould damage: Extends mould life and reduces replacement costs
• In-situ cleaning: Clean moulds directly inside the machine without removal
• Hot cleaning: Minimal downtime; no cooling or reheating required
• Protects product quality: Reduces scrap, rejects, and waste
• Non-abrasive & dry: No dust, residue, or moisture introduced
• Precision cleaning: Vents, slots, and screens cleaned simultaneously
• Consistent results: Achieve a fully restored, 100% clean mould every time

Fast, Hot, and Efficient

Dry ice blasting allows cleaning while the mould is still hot and in place, so equipment can return to production almost immediately. Tasks that once took hours can now be completed in minutes, saving valuable time and increasing productivity.

Superior Quality, Reduced Rejects

Regular dry ice cleaning reduces downtime, eliminates water and chemicals, and ensures consistent high-quality output—even in hard-to-reach areas. Your moulds, screws, and mixers stay protected, your products maintain superior finish, and reject rates drop significantly.
