Industrial archaeology

What can Flancco do for your industry?

Industrial archaeology focuses on the preservation and restoration of historic industrial buildings, machinery and infrastructure. These structures and machines are often tainted by rust, dirt, oil deposits and old paint, which can affect their historic value and structural integrity. Traditional cleaning methods such as chemical treatments and sanding can be harmful and degrade materials. Dry ice blasting offers a non-abrasive, environmentally friendly and safe way to clean industrial heritage objects without causing damage.

  • Restoration of old machinery and tools: Removes rust, oil and dirt without damaging the original patina or structure.
  • Cleaning of historic buildings and structures: Careful removal of soiling, graffiti and old paint layers from brick, concrete and metal.
  • Maintenance of industrial landmarks: Keeps turbines, presses, locomotives and other historic machinery in good condition without accelerating corrosion.
  • Removal of asbestos-free coatings and protective layers: Provides safe and efficient cleaning without harmful residues.
  • Treatment of gears and metal structures: Ensures long-term preservation without damage to delicate components.
