What is Vacuum Blasting?
Vacuum Blasting is a controlled, low-abrasion cleaning process that combines gentle blasting media with an integrated vacuum system.
Contaminants are removed and extracted simultaneously, keeping the work area clean and contained throughout the process.
Unlike jet washing or aggressive abrasive methods, Vacuum Blasting does not rely on high pressure or water.
This makes it suitable for sensitive surfaces, indoor environments, and public spaces where control and cleanliness are essential.

Why professionals choose Vacuum Blasting

Vacuum Blasting is adopted when surface protection, site control, and environmental responsibility matter.
Key reasons include:
- No water, eliminating runoff, ingress, and clean-up issues
- Controlled, minimal abrasion suitable for sensitive surfaces
- Integrated vacuum system keeps sites clean and contained
- Reduced public disruption, ideal for live environments
- Environmentally responsible, avoiding harsh chemicals
- Suitable for indoor and hazardous areas
This makes it a preferred solution for public, heritage, and high-visibility locations.

Common applications

- Brick, stone, concrete, and masonry surfaces
- Permanent removal without aggressive pressure
- Suitable for public spaces and occupied areas

- Sensitive restoration where surface integrity matters
- No water saturation or chemical staining
- Controlled cleaning aligned with conservation standards

- Streets, underpasses, transport areas, and civic buildings
- Minimal mess and disruption during works
- Cleaner sites during and after cleaning

- Removal of coatings without damaging substrates
- Controlled process for structural and architectural surfaces

What Vacuum Blasting replaces
Vacuum Blasting is commonly adopted as an alternative to:

- Jet washing
- Chemical Graffiti cleaning
- Manual scraping and brushing
- Traditional Abrasive blasting

These methods often introduce water damage, surface etching, chemical exposure, or excessive mess.
Vacuum Blasting offers a cleaner, more controlled approach when those risks are no longer acceptable.

How it works
1. Position and seal. The jet hood (6) is placed onto the surface (8) and held securely in position by vacuum.
2. Introduce the blasting media. Granules (2) are fed by gravity from the storage container (1) through the dosing system (3) into the airflow (4).
3. Controlled surface cleaning. The granules are transported via the suction hose (5) to the jet hood (6) and delivered through the jet lance (7), impacting the surface (8) to clean, strip, or prepare it with minimal abrasion.
4. Live visual control. The entire cleaning process can be monitored and controlled through the integrated vision panels (9).
5. Immediate extraction. After impact, used granules and loosened contaminants are extracted immediately through the suction hose (10).
6. Separation and reuse. Inside the machine, material is separated using the cyclone principle. Fine dust is captured in the filter (11), reusable granules are returned to the storage container via the flap (12), and coarse particles are retained on the screen (13), allowing the process to continue.

The result is effective restoration without the collateral damage associated with traditional methods.
Is Vacuum Blasting right for your application?
Vacuum Blasting is ideal when:
You want ‘new again’ restoration without public or environmental disruption.
Every surface and environment is different.
Our role is to assess suitability and ensure the correct system is applied
