Our Expertise

In 2001, we established an Engineering Department, which has since enabled our blasters and drillers to rely on the most advanced topographical information, computerized simulations, laser profiling of rock faces, and bore-tracking. Fully staffed, this Department also provides project and customer support in the form of defining scopes, volume surveys and value-added engineering.

In 2004 we became the first contractor in the country to construct and operate its own bulk explosives blending and loading plant. This allows us to maintain excellent quality control, customize blend for various climates and jobs, and offer our customers the best product at the best prices. In 2006, we took our bulk program modular improving the company's commitment to local market areas and quality customer service. In 2008 we developed a proprietary micropumper delivery system making bulk even more accessible for small construction projects. Learn more (PDF) »
