Mining, Quarry & Construction Supplies for Better Blasts & Safer Sites

ERG Industrial supplies drill and blast consumables, site visibility equipment and personal protective equipment to mines, quarries and civil contractors globally across 62 countries. Every product line exists to do one of two things, put more of your explosive energy into breaking rock, or reduce the risk your crews carry on the bench. That means finer fragmentation, fewer lost holes, higher downstream productivity, and a site that is easier to run safely.

More profit and safety, in 4 simple steps.

Blast Energy Optimisation

Featured

Varistem® Stemming Plugs

Varistem® is a stemming plug that locks explosive energy into the blasthole, so more of it breaks rock.

Improvement in fragmentation
Reduction of flyrock
Reduction of noise and airblast
Downstream productivity gains and significant cost savings

Hole Collar Protection

Hole Covers

Hole Covers protect drilled blast holes from collapse, water, and debris until charging.

Fewer lost blastholes from collar collapses and blockages
Holes kept free from debris
Rainwater kept out of blastholes

Pink Collar Saver Cones

Pink Collar Saver Cones sit in the hole collar to stop it collapsing before the blast.

Hole collars kept intact
Holes kept free from debris
Downlines secured
Fewer re-drills from lost blastholes

Drill and Blast QAQC Improvement

Mining Dip and Survey Rope

Dip tapes and survey ropes for accurate hole depth and distance measurement in the field.

Accurate blasthole depth measurement with Submergo Dip Tapes
Graduations printed both sides to reduce measurement errors
Ultra-Glass™ fibreglass and PVC coating built for tough field conditions
Anti-twist swivels and guided reels extend tape life

Hole Markers

Hole Markers are colour-coded markers for organising drill zones, utilities and contractor areas.

11 colours for categorising utilities, drill zones and contractor areas
Writable polypropylene surface for notes and codes
600mm length keeps markers visible across site

O-Pitdev

O-Pitdev measures borehole deviation so charges go exactly where the design intends.

Faster, more precise borehole deviation readings
Full 360° measurement capability
Waterproof and shock-resistant for site conditions

Mine Visibility Improvement
