CRYONITE: What is it?

KILLS. Cryonite kills insects by freezing. The freezing process is extremely fast and reaches a very low temperature. The speed is essential for effectiveness. The cooling medium is carbon dioxide snow, which the Cryonite unit sprays from the specially designed and patented nozzle.

DRY. Frozen carbon dioxide is also referred to as "dry ice", as it sublimates, that is goes from ice/snow directly to gas with no liquid phase in between. This enables treatment in areas like electrical cabinets, sockets and motors. In food industry flour will not turn into gooey dough!

SWIFT. Through an optimal combination of snow particle size and speed, the cooling is swift enough to make sure that bugs, including eggs and larvae, will not survive.

ERGONOMIC. The Cryonite unit is ergonomic in design, with a telescope function for extended reach and easy working posture, and a "goose-neck" which can be angled up to 90° or more for optimal spraying angle.

PENETRATES. The Cryonite snow penetrates well into deep cracks and crevices, complicated machines, and reaches far into long pipes.

ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY. The process is 100% environmentally friendly as the CO2 released from our systems has been sequestered from the industrial process. In short, the CO2 we use is being 100% reused, adding 0% to our carbon footprint.

POISON-FREE. As the method is non-poisonous, many advantages follow:

* Evacuation of a treated area is not necessary.
* In food industry pest control can be carried out despite production going on at adjacent production lines.
* It can also be used on surfaces in direct contact with food.
* Using Cryonite in homes enables tenants to return immediately after treatment.
* In hotels the room can be let immediately afterwards.

FUTURE PROOF It is also the pest control tool of the future. As regulations exclude chemical after chemical, Cryonite is non-chemical and will stay competitive. Chemical resistance buildup is also not a problem. Cryonite is exempt from registration by the EPA.


Cryonite Effect

Carbon dioxide snow ("dry ice" snow) is very cold, about -78°C (-108°F). But being cold does not necessarily mean being able to cool. Or, put another way: big temperature difference is not the same as high energy transfer.

Imagine the snow that is produced by a fire extinguisher, has of course another goal than freezing tiny bugs. It is therefore of a very different quality. Compared to Cryonite snow, the particle size is big, and the particle speed is slow. Regarding killing bugs, it simply cannot get the work done.

The Cryonite effect - the rapid freezing - is dependent on a certain mix of particle sizes and speeds. The cooling occurs in several phases, where each phase has an optimal combination of a particle size and speed, for attaining maximum cooling rate. Having somewhat bigger particles in the mix, makes the particle-stream efficacious also at longer ranges, and in warmer surroundings.

The speed helps the penetration deep into thin cracks and crevices, in buildings as well as in machines, and also hurtles them through long pipes. But the speed is also an integral part of the freezing itself. For the energy transfer to be efficient, the ice-particles need good contact with the target (bug or surface). A high speed makes for a good, contact-making impact on the target.

Cryonite is a new pest control technology with great potential.

It is by its very nature environmental friendly and hygienic. But most of all it is poison free - which means many positive things when it comes to using it.

Poison Free - use it anywhere, anytime, on surfaces in contact with food (e.g. bakeries, kitchens).if your production line can't be stopped, any critical problems can still be swiftly remediated! You can let apartment tenants in immediately, in hotels let the room immediately after treatment.

Residue free - Use it in sensitive environments.

Dry Material - Use it in electrical switchboxes (e.g. food industries) and sockets (an often overlooked bed bug hiding spot).

Physical (non-chemical) - There is no resistance build-up against pesticides - for the future and if the bugs already are resistant - this will kill them.

What does this all mean for you

  • Evacuation of the treated area is not necessary.
  • At a production site in the food industry, pest control can be carried out despite ongoing production at adjacent production lines.
  • Apartment tenants can return to their homes immediately after a Cryonite treatment.
  • Hotel rooms can be let, flour silos can be filled - all immediately afterwards.
  • For bed-bug treatment two of the above points apply: kill them even if they are resistant, and let the room right after treatment.
