Every operation takes place within real communities and real environments.
BIAFO's approach reflects that responsibility in every decision.
BIAFO operates at the intersection of powerful industrial forces and fragile human environments. Blasting reshapes terrain, affects ground vibration, generates fumes, and takes place near communities. The company's responsibility framework is designed to manage every one of these impacts — not as a compliance exercise, but as an operational standard.
ISO 45001:2018 certification governs occupational health and safety across all sites. Technical Services teams provide on-site monitoring and risk management throughout every project lifecycle.
Tovex® Water Gel's environmental profile is inherent to its chemistry — not an add-on. The result is an explosive that is simultaneously safer for workers, less disruptive to surrounding environments, and more controllable in the field.
Significantly lower toxic fume output after every blast
Stable shelf life — less product waste from deterioration
Resists accidental initiation from impact, friction, and fire
Near-immediate re-entry in tunnel operations — no ventilation delay
Minimises hole-to-hole propagation — better delay sequence control
No nitroglycerin — eliminates NG headaches and toxic skin absorption
Excellent water resistance — no ground contamination in wet boreholes
