Fiber mining tubes
Sonoco fiber mining tubes provide superior ground support and effective overbreak control and make development mining and tunneling safer by eliminating almost all harmful post-explosion gases. Added value comes from the 100% recycled paperboard construction.
 
Fiber mining tubes: As an alternative to PVC piping, try Sonoco fiber mining tubes for support in soft rock blasting. Sonoco  paper tubes house the explosive and provide perimeter control in wet conditions. After-blast testing found that Sonoco mining tubes produce significantly lower levels of harmful gases than PVC piping. The result? Much shorter mine and quarry evacuation times, a reduction in blasting-related health and safety issues and increased productivity. >>>
