At Gransden, we provide specialist dry ice cleaning for the aerospace industry, offering a fast, effective, and non-damaging solution for cleaning aircraft components. Dry ice blasting is ideal for removing carbon buildup, grease, adhesives, and contaminants from sensitive aviation parts without the risk of abrasion, corrosion, or residue.
This method is particularly beneficial for cleaning:
Dry ice blasting is an eco-friendly alternative to chemical solvents and abrasive techniques, reducing waste and minimising downtime. It ensures aircraft components are cleaned to the highest standards, improving efficiency, longevity, and safety.
Trust Gransden Dry Ice Blasters for precision aviation cleaning, keeping aircraft components in top operational condition while maintaining industry standards.
Targeted Ultra‑High Pressure Blasting
We propel dry ice pellets at supersonic speeds using single‑hose systems. On impact, the pellets sublimate—creating microscopic shockwaves and thermal shock that lift contaminants without damaging underlying materials
In‑situ Cleaning – No Disassembly
Our equipment is fully mobile. We can clean engines, landing gear, avionics hubs, and fuselage sections on-site without dismantling components—minimising logistics and engine-out-of-service time
Moisture‑Free Methodology
Dry ice cleaning leaves surfaces 100 % dry. This eliminates risk to sensitive electrical systems, avionics, and composite materials and avoids corrosion issues common with water-based cleaning techniques
Non‑abrasive & Material Safe
Perfect for delicate substrates such as composites, titanium, and avionics enclosures, with zero risk of abrasion or structural damage
Residue‑Free Cleaning
Since dry ice sublimates, there’s no media residue—just removed contaminants. That means no post-cleaning residue, rinse, or disposal challenges
Eco‑Friendly & Chemical‑Free
Utilises reclaimed CO₂, requires no solvents or toxic chemicals, and generates no wastewater or hazardous waste
Reduced Maintenance Downtime
Unlike manual scrubbing or solvent cleaning, our method works fast and on-site, slashing downtime and maintenance disruption
Improved Inspection & Aerodynamic Efficiency
Removing grime and carbon reveals hidden cracks and wear, benefiting NDT inspections and maintaining aerodynamic smoothness on airframes
In the ever-demanding world of the aviation sector, maintaining impeccable cleanliness is not optional. We provide a complete range of services tailored especially for the aviation industry: from exterior airframes to interior cabin systems.
Whether you’re responsible for large commercial aircraft or a fleet of private aircraft, our approach ensures the highest standard of aircraft cleanliness.
Aircraft owners face unique challenges: harsh weather, high-use airport environments, fuel residue, hydraulic oils, bird-strike aftermath, and particulate build-up all combine to degrade surfaces and systems over time.
We deliver aircraft cleaning services designed to restore and preserve both aesthetics and operational integrity.
For those who prioritise regular inspection readiness, our regular cleaning programmes help keep downtime to a minimum and appearance standards high.
We are the leading provider of dry ice blasting aviation cleaning services. We work on all aircraft, including executive aircraft. Our meticulous cleaning services are done to achieve passenger satisfaction and smooth flights.
Our product is simply just dry ice blasting, meaning there are no corrosive substances in use during cleaning. Dry ice blasting will assist with stain removal and operational needs on the exterior of your aircrafts.
We stick to all industry regulations set by aviation authorities. Get in touch with us today to find out more about how we can help you.
