Blast stemming products

Tailored to your specifications, size and material being blasted

We specialise in providing tailored blasting solutions that meet the specific requirements of your mine. We consider blast efficiency, the design of the blast, the environmental and geological conditions of your site, and regulatory requirements to help control the direction of the blast, reduce flyrock and improve fragmentation.
