Welcome to Biafo

Biafo Industries Limited having its registered office at 1st Floor, Biafo House, Plot No. 23, Street No. 38-40, I&T Center, G-10/4, Islamabad-Pakistan would like to take this opportunity to introduce their product Tovex ® Water Gel Explosive manufactured at their plant located at Hattar Industrial Estate, Haripur Pakistan.

The Company has been selected amongst Top 25 Companies of Pakistan Stock Exchange for the years 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015 and 2018. We are also an ISO 9001-2015, OHSAS 18001:2007 certified company.

Tovex ® has been an important breakthrough in explosives since the invention of dynamite by Alfred Nobel more than a century ago. Dynamite has served the industry well but hazards associated with the use, manufacture, transportation, storage and toxic nature has been the cause of serious concern.

After intensive studies and research, in 1974 DuPont, the largest manufacturer of Nitro Glycerin based dynamite in the United States of America introduced Tovex ® Water Gel, and in 1976 they decided to withdraw from the dynamite business in favour of Tovex ®.
