HORECO2 equipment offers different specifications for dry ice production: dry ice pellet sizes include 1.5mm, 3mm, 10mm, 16mm, and 19mm; dry ice block sizes include 250g, 500g, 2-7kg (adjustable with templates), and 25kg.
Customization of different specifications is also accepted to meet customer requirements.
Dry ice sublimes at 194.7 K (−78.5 °C; −109.2 °F) at Earth atmospheric pressure. This extreme cold makes the solid dangerous to handle without protection from frostbite injury. While generally not very toxic, the outgassing from it can cause hypercapnia (abnormally elevated carbon dioxide levels in the blood) due to buildup in confined locations.
Dry ice is the solid form of carbon dioxide (CO2), a molecule consisting of a single carbon atom bonded to two oxygen atoms. Dry ice is colorless, odorless, and non-flammable, and can lower the pH of a solution when dissolved in water, forming carbonic acid (H2CO3).
At pressures below 5.13 atm and temperatures below −56.4 °C (216.8 K; −69.5 °F) (the triple point), CO2 changes from a solid to a gas with no intervening liquid form, through a process called sublimation. The opposite process is called deposition, where CO2 changes from the gas to solid phase (dry ice). At atmospheric pressure, sublimation/deposition occurs at 194.7 K (−78.5 °C; −109.2 °F).
The density of dry ice increases with decreasing temperature and ranges between about 1.55 and 1.7 g/cm3 (97 and 106 lb/cu ft) below 195 K (−78 °C; −109 °F). The low temperature and direct sublimation to a gas makes dry ice an effective coolant, since it is colder than water ice and leaves no residue as it changes state. Its enthalpy of sublimation is 571 kJ/kg (25.2 kJ/mol, 136.5 calorie/g).

Corporate Values
Environmental Protection：
We recycle industrial waste CO₂ and transform it into value-added products—dry ice. As a recyclable form of CO₂, dry ice replaces environmentally harmful traditional cleaning methods and reduces energy consumption in cold chain logistics. Additionally, the use of dry ice does not count toward corporate carbon emission quotas, helping businesses improve their ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) scores.
Employee Safety：
Dry ice cleaning replaces traditional chemical solvent-based cleaning methods, minimizing secondary pollution and providing employees with a greener, safer working environment.
Advanced Dry Ice Technology Leading the Industry：
HORECO₂ boasts a professor-level R&D team, collaborates with multiple universities, and operates a postgraduate research station. To date, HORECO₂ has obtained over 80 patented technologies, continuously driving innovation in China’s dry ice industry.
