Who we are
Through A Legacy of Innovation
Mr Brian W Ritchie started an explosives manufacturing and trading company in the Sultanate named “Hajar Explosives” in 1979. It was set up in collaboration with ICI Nobel’s Explosives Company, at that time the largest commercial explosives company in the world.
As the leading manufacturer and supplier of industrial explosives and accessories in Oman, the company delivers value, expertise and ensures reliable supplies and services to its partners allowing them to achieve the best possible results on all their projects.
Over the years, the company has adopted both forward and backward integration strategies for gaining better control over the supply chain, thus providing a complete solution to the clients and mire values for their money.
Backward integration is achieved with the company’s own explosives manufacturing plants while forward integration is done with its drilling & blasting division and the mining division, supported by earthmoving and mining operations.
Each blasting project is different, and it needs special skills and technologies, particularly in terms of maintaining strict. In order to meet the client’s varying requirements within the mining and civil sectors, the company provides appropriate skills and resources to undertake the whole range of drilling & blasting activities.
