Improve safety by reducing manual handling
Orica’s Surface Delivery Systems minimise manual product handling and time on the pattern, helping reduce exposure to high-risk tasks and environments.
Reduce personnel exposure on blast patterns
Controlled loading keeps your people further from operational hazards, supporting safer benches and strengthening your license to operate.
Increase blast loading productivity
High-capacity, precisely controlled delivery enables faster, more consistent loading so you can complete more blasts in less time with the same crew.
Optimise blasting results for better fragmentation
Accurate, tailored energy distribution in every hole improves fragmentation, diggability and downstream performance, helping reduce crushing, hauling and processing costs.
Enable flexible delivery for varied site conditions
Adaptable delivery systems and blast designs let you respond to changing geology, weather and mine plans without compromising safety, compliance or performance.
Lower total blasting and mining costs
By improving safety, productivity and blast outcomes, Orica’s Surface Delivery Systems help reduce rework, delays and explosives wastage, lowering your overall cost per tonne.

Understanding Orica's surface delivery systems
What are Surface Delivery Systems?
Surface Delivery Systems are Mobile Manufacturing Units (MMU™) that deliver bulk explosives directly into blastholes, improving safety and efficiency compared to manual handling.
Why choose Orica’s MMU™ over bagged ANFO?
MMU™s reduce manual handling, lower safety risks, and improve blast loading productivity, especially in wet or uneven ground conditions. Orica's Surface Delivery Systems offer a range of delivery rates and payloads to suit market segment and application. These range from high delivery rates, for large scale mining to low, accurate delivery rates for quarrying operations.
Which industries use Surface Delivery Systems?
Mining, quarrying, and construction sites benefit from these systems for efficient and safe blasting operations.
Are regional surface delivery vehicles available?
Yes, options like TREAD™ or Euromaster™ are available in specific regions. Download the regional brochure or contact your local Orica representative for details.
