How do I handle Dry Ice when I receive it?
Safe Handling
Seeing that dry ice is -109° F if you accidentally touch it with your bare hands, it will leave you with a pretty nasty and painful burn. That being said, do not touch it with bare skin. If you are required to disperse dry ice into containers outside of the holding container that you receive from Baker's Gas, be sure to use a scoop of some sort and always use protective gloves.
How to store Dry Ice
When you are storing dry ice, it can not be in a completely sealed container due to the pressure that builds up from sublimation into gas.
We deliver bulk orders in HR 11 Totes. The totes come equipped with casters to easily roll around the workplace, and they hold approximately 500 pounds of dry ice. The lid will safely hinge as well to better handle gas sublimation as well.
