Dry Ice Blasting
Non-conductive, dry cleaning for machinery, electrical equipment, production lines and food manufacturing plant. Removes grease, oil, carbon, mould and fire residue with no secondary waste to collect.
Industrial dry ice cleaning →Clean without damage
Dry ice blasting lifts grease, carbon and residue off machinery and electrical gear — no water, no media to clean up, often no disassembly.
Strip back the layers
Abrasive blasting removes rust, failed coatings and mill scale, and leaves the surface profile a protective coating needs to hold.
Wash down site, plant & equipment
High-pressure cleaning and heavy-duty degreasing for factory floors, hardstands, plant, structures and warehouses.
Coat it so it lasts
Industrial painting and protective coatings applied over surfaces to protect from the elements, chemicals and wear & tear.
Our services
Four industrial services, one contractor
Each service works on its own or as part of a larger maintenance scope. Every job is quoted on what the surface and the site actually need.

Problems we solve
Start with the problem, not the process
Most enquiries begin with something that has gone wrong on site. Here is where each of those usually lands.
Heavy grease, oil and carbon buildup
Baked-on contamination on machinery, motors, gearboxes and production equipment that solvents and rags no longer touch.
Disassembly not required.
Rust, corrosion and failed coatings
Blistering, flaking or lifting paint on steelwork, tanks and equipment — usually a sign the original preparation was never right.
Abrasive blastingContaminated concrete and hardstand
Oil-stained floors, slippery walkways, forklift traffic marks and washdown areas that fail a housekeeping or safety audit.
Pressure cleaningPreparation before repainting
A structure or asset due for recoating, where the coating system will only perform if the substrate is properly prepared first.
Surface preparation & coatingsEquipment that is difficult to clean
Switchboards, conveyors, motors and control gear where water is a problem and stripping the machine down is not practical.
Electrical & machinery cleaningShutdown and maintenance cleaning
A narrow window where cleaning, blasting and coating all have to happen before the plant restarts.

Industries
Who we work with
Different sites, same underlying problems — contamination, corrosion and surfaces that need to be brought back and protected.
Manufacturing
Production line, machinery and plant cleaning between runs or during scheduled maintenance.

Dry cleaning of processing equipment and structures where water and chemical residue are unwelcome.
Engineering & Fabrication
Blasting and surface preparation of fabricated steel before coating or dispatch.
Transport & Heavy Fleet
Chassis, trailer and equipment cleaning, blasting and protective coating.
Warehousing & Logistics
Floor, racking, dock and hardstand cleaning on a recurring schedule.
Agriculture
Silos, sheds, machinery and implements — cleaning, rust removal and recoating.
Construction
Site washdowns, plant cleaning and steelwork preparation before handover.
Facilities Management
One contractor across multiple sites for cleaning, preparation and repainting works.
Commercial Property
Building exteriors, car parks, walkways and painted surfaces kept presentable.
Industrial Workshops
Component cleaning and blasting for workshops without their own blast facility.
Foundries
Heavy carbon, scale and residue removal from equipment and surrounding structures.
Plant & Machinery
Asset owners maintaining condition and resale value across a fleet of machines.
How we work
From first call to sign-off
The same sequence on every job, scaled to the size of the work.
01
Enquiry & scope
You tell us the asset, the contamination or the surface and any constraints — downtime, access, safety requirements.
02
Site assessment
Where the job warrants it we attend site, look at the substrate and confirm the method, media or coating system.
03
Planning & preparation
Masking, containment, isolation and access sorted in advance, and the work scheduled around your production.
04
Execution
Cleaning, blasting, preparation or coating carried out to the agreed scope, with progress reported as we go.
05
Inspection & handover
We walk the work with you, confirm the result and leave the area clean and ready to return to service.
06
Ongoing maintenance
Where it makes sense, the job becomes a scheduled visit rather than a repeat emergency.
Service area
Working across Victoria
We are based in Thomastown in Melbourne's north and work throughout metropolitan Melbourne — northern, western, eastern and south-eastern suburbs — as well as regional Victoria.
Regional and country work is normal for us: Geelong, Ballarat, Bendigo, Shepparton, Wodonga, Gippsland and the Mornington Peninsula. For sites further out we plan the visit properly — travel, access and site requirements agreed up front so the crew arrives ready to work.
Multi-site operators and facilities managers can run all of their locations through one contractor and one point of contact.

FAQ
Common questions
Do you work during shutdowns and after hours?
Yes. Most industrial cleaning and surface preparation has to happen when the plant is down, so shutdown, weekend and night work is part of normal scheduling. Tell us the window and we will plan the scope around it.
Do you take on small jobs, or only large projects?
Both. A single machine, a run of steelwork, one warehouse floor or a full plant shutdown — the method is the same, the scale is what changes.
Can you set up recurring maintenance cleaning?
Yes. Recurring visits — monthly, quarterly or aligned to your maintenance calendar — are usually cheaper and less disruptive than reacting when contamination has built up.
Do you travel outside Melbourne?
We service all of Victoria, including Geelong, Ballarat, Bendigo, Shepparton, Wodonga and Gippsland. Regional jobs are planned as a single mobilisation so the travel is worth the trip.
Which service does my problem need?
Send a photo and a short description. We will tell you honestly whether it is a dry ice, abrasive blasting, pressure cleaning or coatings job — or a combination.
Do you do automotive work?
Vehicle work is handled by our automotive division, Carbon Blast Auto, at carbonblastauto.com.au. This site covers industrial and commercial work.
