What is Ultra High-Pressure Hydroblasting or UHP for short?
Like you may guess, UHP is a form of water blasting that uses ultra-high water pressures. Ultra-high pressures are anywhere between 28,000 and 42,000 PSI (only using pressures that is necessary to avoid damage to surfaces). To put that in perspective, the average fire hose operates at 1,600 PSI. UHP requires the use of a special high-pressure water pump system. This system is quick, efficient, and eco-friendly. UHP hydroblasting uses no chemicals or added abrasives—simply water at ultra-high pressures! This makes it a safer and more sustainable choice for various industrial applications, minimizing chemical pollutants that can contaminate nearby soil and water.

Businesses may use ultra high-pressure hydroblasting for various reasons, primarily due to its effectiveness in handling tough cleaning and maintenance tasks. Industrial facilities often accumulate stubborn residues such as paint, rust, scale, or chemical build-up on equipment, tanks, and pipelines that conventional cleaning methods cannot remove efficiently. With its high-pressure water jets, hydroblasting can clean these surfaces without causing damage. Learn more about our common industrial applications for UHP blasting below.
