Swiss broadcaster SRF visits ASCO

As part of its summer series "Hot and Cold", the Swiss television programme "Schweiz aktuell" visited the ASCO production facility in Eschlikon. As a second, contrasting example of the "hot" theme, the programme followed a fireworks factory in Neudorf, Lucerne, during the busy production period leading up to the national holiday on 1 August.

For the programme, Swiss broadcaster SRF spent a week visiting various Swiss companies that manufacture and/or supply specialised products relating to the themes of ‘hot’ and ‘cold’. During the 20-minute programme, ASCO’s Head of Marketing & Communications, Fabian Weber, and Area Sales Manager, Magnus Holm, provide a range of insights into the production methods, uses and hazards of dry ice as a cooling medium. Part of the feature is an exciting live demonstration using the ASCOJET 1708 dry ice blasting machine, showcasing the effectiveness of dry ice blasting. The live broadcast also featured impressive chemical reactions between dry ice and water.
