Swedish company Hypex Bio Explosives Technology has strengthened its partnership with BME, an Omnia Holdings group company, by signing a new licensing and distribution agreement that will enable the deployment of its hydrogen peroxide-based explosives (HPEs) technology throughout the SADC (Southern African Development Community) region.<\/p>\n\n
The new agreement continues a collaboration that had already begun in other regions, and marks the structured entry of HPEs into both open-pit and subway operations.

In addition, a scalability approach is incorporated through charging systems such as MEMUs and MCUs, which allow for more efficient deployment in the field. <\/p>\n\n According to executives from both companies, this partnership represents a firm commitment to green mining through the use of explosives with a lower carbon footprint and a cleaner life cycle. Hypex Bio and BME agree that the African mining sector is facing a historic opportunity to adopt technologies that improve operational safety and reduce environmental impact. <\/p>\n\nScalable technology and regional access<\/h2>\n\n
