Controlled Cleaning for Demanding Environments
Specialist dry ice cleaning for commercial and industrial sites where moisture, harsh cleaning chemicals and unnecessary disruption create additional risk.
Commercial Cleaning Is About More Than Appearance
In active commercial and industrial environments, the wrong cleaning method can introduce moisture, chemical residue, extensive secondary cleanup or unnecessary downtime. The method needs to suit the surface, the contamination and the way your site operates.
- Water can create complications around machinery, electrical components and moisture-sensitive areas.
- Chemical-heavy methods may require additional handling, residue control and site restrictions.
- Aggressive abrasion can alter or mark unsuitable surfaces if the method is not properly assessed.
- Long shutdowns and secondary cleanup can cost more than the cleaning work itself.
Controlled Dry Ice Cleaning
Dry ice pellets are accelerated using compressed air. On suitable surfaces, the combined impact and rapid sublimation help loosen contamination without introducing cleaning water. The media changes from solid to gas, leaving the removed contamination as the primary material to collect.
Commercial and Industrial Applications
Every site is assessed individually. These are examples of environments and equipment where controlled dry ice cleaning may provide a practical alternative to water or chemical-heavy methods.
Production Lines
Suitable conveyors, moulds, tooling, heaters and production components affected by grease, residue or built-up contamination.
Food Processing Equipment
Cleaning of suitable equipment and components affected by food residue, grease and dirt, planned around the site’s own hygiene controls.
Print and Paper
Suitable machinery and components affected by ink, adhesive residue, paper dust, pulp or baked-on buildup.
Automotive and Engineering
Assessed engines, tooling, robotics, hydraulic components, moulds and production equipment.
Rubber and Plastics
Cleaning of suitable moulds, tooling and equipment affected by production residue and release-agent buildup.
Wood and Coatings
Assessed surfaces affected by carbon buildup, adhesive, pollution residue or suitable coatings. Testing may be required.
Facilities and Plant Rooms
Suitable plant equipment, service areas and structural surfaces where controlled cleaning is required.
Marine and Specialist Equipment
Assessed engines, machinery and components used in marine or other specialist operational environments.
Not Sure Whether Dry Ice Cleaning Is Suitable?
Start with a site assessment. We will review the surface, contamination, access and operational requirements before recommending an approach.
A Clear, Controlled Process
We assess the requirements first, explain the recommended method and provide a clear quotation before work begins.

Commercial Cleaning FAQs
Important information about suitability, site assessment and how the dry ice cleaning process works.
What types of commercial sites can you work in?
We assess work in production facilities, food processing environments, workshops, engineering sites, plant rooms and other commercial or industrial premises. Suitability depends on the surface, contamination, access and site controls.
Is dry ice cleaning suitable for every surface?
No. Every surface must be assessed. Historic, fragile, repaired, painted or unknown surfaces may require a test area before the wider work is approved.
Will the site need to shut down?
Not necessarily, but this depends on the equipment, work area and your operational procedures. Dry ice cleaning can help reduce downtime in suitable situations, but isolation, restricted access or a planned maintenance window may still be required.
Does the process use water or cleaning chemicals?
Dry ice cleaning introduces no cleaning water and requires no harsh cleaning chemicals as part of the blasting process. Certain contaminants or site risks may still require additional specialist controls.
Can it be used in food-processing environments?
It may be suitable for certain equipment, components and residues following assessment. Work must be planned around the facility’s hygiene, isolation and production controls. Dry ice cleaning should not be treated as automatic sanitisation or sterilisation.
Can you clean hazardous coatings or glass?
Titus does not clean glass using these systems. Suspected hazardous coatings or contamination must be identified before work begins and may require specialist testing, containment and additional controls.
Which areas do you cover?
Our primary service area is Glasgow and the surrounding areas. Wider Scottish projects can be considered depending on the scope and requirements.
