High-Pressure Blasting Service Market Report 2025

The high-pressure blasting service market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $3.18 billion in 2024 to $3.4 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.8%. The growth observed during the historic period can be credited to the expansion of oil and gas infrastructure, increased demand for industrial plant maintenance, stringent regulatory cleanliness standards, the development of shipbuilding and marine repair activities, aging industrial machinery, and a rise in heavy equipment manufacturing.

The high-pressure blasting service market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $4.36 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.4%. The growth in the forecast period is expected to be driven by strict environmental and safety regulations, the expansion of renewable energy infrastructure, heightened demand for sustainable cleaning techniques, the growth of automotive and aerospace industries, and ongoing urbanization. Key trends during the forecast period include robotic blasting systems, automated and remote-controlled blasting equipment, water recycling and filtration technologies, AI-powered predictive maintenance tools, IoT-enabled equipment monitoring, and the use of drones for pre- or post-inspection tasks.

The increasing investment in infrastructure is anticipated to drive the growth of the high-pressure blasting service market in the coming years. Infrastructure investment involves capital expenditures by governments and private organizations to construct and upgrade vital facilities such as roads, bridges, industrial plants, and energy systems. This rise in infrastructure spending is fueled by urbanization, as expanding urban populations create a greater demand for roads, utilities, industrial facilities, and transportation networks to support housing and economic activities. High-pressure blasting services play a crucial role in infrastructure development by offering effective surface preparation, cleaning, and maintenance of construction equipment, pipelines, and structures, thereby ensuring durability and quality during construction and refurbishment projects. For example, in July 2025, the UK’s Office for National Statistics reported that total market sector investment in infrastructure reached $27.3 billion (£20.3 billion) in 2024 (measured in 2022 chained volumes), representing a 16.9% increase from 2023. Consequently, this growing infrastructure investment is driving the expansion of the high-pressure blasting service market.

Leading companies in the high-pressure blasting service market are concentrating on developing advanced technologies, such as high-pressure water jetting and blasting systems, to improve cleaning efficiency and surface preparation. These systems utilize a high-velocity water stream, typically above 10,000 psi, for industrial cleaning, surface preparation, and maintenance by cutting or removing materials from surfaces. For instance, in September 2022, Diamond Technology Innovations Inc., a US-based manufacturer of waterjet nozzles, launched the fantomJET, an ultra-high-pressure diamond fan jet. The fantomJET features a precision diamond orifice that produces a consistent, uniform fan-shaped water stream, allowing broader surface coverage while reducing water usage. Its ultra-high-pressure performance enables effective material removal and surface preparation, and the diamond construction ensures extended operational life. Additionally, the fan-shaped design minimizes splash-back, enhancing operator safety and job site cleanliness, while providing faster cutting and cleaning speeds compared to traditional round jets. These attributes make the fantomJET a dependable and efficient tool for demanding industrial uses.

In March 2023, Clean Harbors Inc., a US-based provider of environmental and industrial services, acquired Thompson Industrial Services for $100 million. Through this acquisition, Clean Harbors Inc. seeks to expand its industrial services presence in the southeastern United States and strengthen its high-pressure and chemical cleaning service capabilities for industrial facilities. Thompson Industrial Services LLC is a US-based company specializing in industrial cleaning services, including high-pressure blasting.

Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report’s recommendations and conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.

The rapid escalation of U.S. tariffs and the resulting trade tensions in spring 2025 are significantly impacting the services sector, particularly in business services, IT, and professional consulting operations. Higher costs for imported technology, office equipment, and essential digital infrastructure have raised operating expenses for service providers, forcing them to either pass on costs to clients or absorb margin pressures. Outsourcing firms and IT service companies are also facing challenges due to increased costs of hardware components and delayed global supply chains, affecting project delivery timelines and profitability. Additionally, retaliatory tariffs have dampened demand for U.S.-based professional services in key international markets, leading to a slowdown in export-driven revenue streams. The sector must now prioritize digital transformation, cost optimization, and expanding domestic client bases to sustain growth and maintain competitiveness amid ongoing trade uncertainty.

High-pressure blasting service is a cleaning and surface preparation technique that employs a stream of water or abrasive substances propelled at very high pressure. This approach is used to eliminate contaminants, coatings, residues, or other unwanted materials from different surfaces. The process depends on specialized equipment designed to generate and sustain high-pressure output, ensuring efficient removal of materials without relying on chemicals.

The primary types of high-pressure blasting services include water blasting, sandblasting, soda blasting, dry ice blasting, and others. Water blasting involves using a high-velocity water stream to clean, remove, or prepare surfaces by dislodging contaminants, coatings, or debris without abrasive materials. These services are applied in various tasks such as surface cleaning, coating removal, corrosion control, concrete repair, graffiti removal, and industrial maintenance, serving multiple end users such as construction, manufacturing, marine, aerospace, automotive, and infrastructure sectors.
