..::::: CLASSIFICATION

Class -2, Cat ZZ. IMCO code -1.1D, UN No. 0241.

..::::: PACKING

All type cartridge explosives are packed in fiberboard boxes of 25 kg. Net weight. Number of cartridges in a box depends upon the cartridge weight. All boxes are stamped for Batch No. Date of mfr, Cartridge Weight and Number of cartridges. The stamped cartridges are strapped and stored separately. Seismic explosives are packed in couplable plastic tubes of desired size.

All other explosives are packed in LDPE tubing with clipped ends. Kelvex Watergel explosives are safer to handle, transport and store due to their lower sensitivity to friction, impact and fire. Another advantage of Kelvex explosives is considerably lower generation of after-blast noxious gases.

Bulk explosive matrix is transported to the charging site through specially built BMD vehicles. These BMD vehicles are fitted with necessary systems to mix the emulsion matrix with other required ingredients to form explosive. Mixing and charging of explosive is continuous process and very small quantity of explosive is handled at any time. The quantity of explosive charged to the borehole is continuously monitored and recorded in the inbuilt recording system. Once the hole is filled with pre-determined quantity of explosive the charging hose is moved to the other hole for charging.
