Why Dustless Blasting Is Better Than Sandblasting
Dustless blasting is a technique to clear surfaces by mixing water and abrasives under high pressure and remove surface paint, stains or any other discolouration or contaminants. Whereas sandblasting is a cleaning technique that uses a mix of sand and air compression to clean surfaces.
When comparing dustless blasting and sandblasting the first benefit of users of dustless blasting is that it doesn’t heat up the surfaces whereas sandblasting causes friction leading to heating up the surface, potentially warping the surface. Thus, dustless blasting can be considered safer than sandblasting in some ways. Moreover, dustless blasting pushes the abrasives and contaminants such as dust and debris down, providing a dust-free experience, whereas with sandblasting residue of contaminants can be left behind. Thus, with dustless blasting, the threat of diseases due to contaminants and dirt is lower than the threat of diseases coming from sandblasting.
Since dustless blasting is used with high pressure and water with no harmful substances it is safer for the environment, whereas sandblasting is damaging to the environment. One important factor to consider in a contemporary environment is saving the environment with non-abrasive techniques, and dustless blasting is a non-abrasive technique with minimal effects on the environment.
With dustless blasting service you do not have to worry about your workers being in potentially harmful environment because the water pressure removes the dirt and it does not go into the environment but with sandblasting the same guarantee cannot be given. Therefore, dustless blasting is better than sandblasting because it’s more environmentally friendly and safer than sandblasting.
