Recent News:
- In September 2023, Exel Neo, the first line of lead-free electric detonators, is introduced to the market for commercial distribution by Orica. By removing lead, the organization has improved the safety and durability of its premium Exel product line without compromising performance consistency and reliability. Ecological and sustainable origination systems are now marketed under the Neo by Orica brand. Lead and lead compounds are not used in the production of pyrotechnic retarders for the Neo range of Exel non-electric detonators, manufactured in Gyttorp, Sweden, using a lead-free formulation. Built on non-primary detonation (NPED) technology, which Orica has used successfully for the past three decades, Exel's line of non-electric detonation technologies represents excellence, innovation and safety in 'industry'. Exel Neo, like its predecessor Exel, is specifically designed for use in surface and underground mining operations, in addition to civil infrastructure.
